25 Year Caribou Look Back

Our Journey to Clean Label began in 2004

Built world-

class Kosher/

Organic-

certified coffee

roasting and

manufacturing

facility.

Began

Rainforest

Alliance

journey by

roasting our

first

Rainforest

Alliance-

certified

beans –

better for the

customer

and the

grower.

How serious

were we about

Clean Label?

First, we

committed to

using only dairy

with no added

hormones and

then made sure

our suppliers

would only

provide us with

exactly that.

Clean, crisp and

delicious is all

our milk should

be.

In the

pursuit of

taste, we put

a stake in the

coffee

grounds to

use only real

chocolate

chips. And

we’ve been

marching

towards a

Clean Label

drink menu

ever since.

100% of our

beans are

sourced from

Rainforest

Alliance-

Certified

farms. By

supporting

biodiversity

conservation

and improved

communities

for our

farmers, we all

win.

We Couldn’t

switch to Clean

label drink

ingredients and

sacrifice taste.

So we

performed a set

of blind taste

tests and found

that consumers

clearly preferred

Clean Label

drinks. We

accomplished

both our goals:

improved taste

and ingredient

quality Win, win,

delicious win.

We introduced

real vanilla

syrup. It is

made with pure

cane sugar and

real vanilla from

Madagascar,

not with artificial

flavors. It was

love at first

taste.

Next ingredient

on the Clean

Label

bandwagon?

Real caramel.

Made without

artificial flavors.

Just a delicious

swirl of caramel

sauce.

From raspberry

to mint chocolate

and salted

caramel, all of

our Caribou

Coolers® are

made with Clean

Label

ingredients. This

even includes all

of our mix-ins,

special treats

and toppings.

When we took

fall’s favorite

treat, pumpkin,

and made it

Clean Label,

our pumpkin

drinks became

the envy of

average fall

beverages

everywhere.

And an instant

fall classic.

In 2017, we

launched our

delicious

Caribou

Coolers®

without coffee,

so you can enjoy

classic treat

flavors made

without artificial

sweeteners or

colors. What an

entrance.
