MINNEAPOLIS – NOVEMBER 11, 2024 – Caribou Coffee, a premium coffeehouse known for industry-leading innovation and signature handcrafted beverages, announced loyalty members have redeemed the brand’s no additional charge for non-dairy milk reward more than one million times. Launched in May 2023, the offer gives Caribou Perks® members the ability to customize their beverages with non-dairy milk options – including almond, oat, and coconut – at no added charge, simply by ordering ahead via the Caribou Coffee app.

“We’re thrilled to reach this milestone, which speaks to our guests’ passion for customization and sustainability,” says Erin Newkirk, Chief Brand and Marketing Officer at Caribou Coffee. “By offering no-cost non-dairy for well over a year now, we’re making plant-based milk options easier for everyone to enjoy, and we’re proud to support our Caribou Perks members in making choices that match their preferences.”

Free to join, the Caribou Perks program offers members a range of exclusive rewards—from a free birthday drink and discounts to insider access and special promotions—with non-dairy customization at no additional cost emerging as a standout feature.

In addition, Caribou Coffee continues to innovate with beverages made using non-dairy milk. The popular Espresso Shaker platform features oatmilk in classic flavors as well as seasonal versions. Caribou’s Fruit Shakers, launched in the summer of 2024, blend real fruit and fruit juices with coconutmilk, providing a refreshing non-dairy choice for non-coffee drinkers. And for the holidays, Caribou has introduced oat nog beverages, including the Vanilla Oat Nog Latte and Vanilla Oat Nog Crafted Press, for a non-dairy twist on traditional egg nog.
