Costa iced drinks cools down the UK
The coffee shop chain saw an 43% rise in iced drinks year on year.
Caroline Harris, Marketing Director of Costa UK and Ireland said “It has been great to see that Costa is providing a welcome relief both in our stores and with our drinks during this week’s heat wave.”
“We have increased our iced drinks and cooler offering at Costa for moments like this and look forward to cooling the nation down throughout the Summer as it continues.”
Over 150,000 iced drinks were sold across the country - a dramatic increase versus the same day last year.
With latest predictions revealing it will be the hottest Summer on record, Costa predicted that it will sell over 160,00 iced drinks in one weekend alone, following over 4.5 million ice cubes being used for the Costa iced drinks yesterday.
The increase in figures saw the UK enjoying Costa’s latest Summer range which includes Costa Coolers, Fruit Coolers, Iced Lemonades and Iced Teas.
