Starbucks and Nestlé have collaborated to introduce new dairy-free coffee enhancers to their range of Starbucks Coffee Enhancers. The two new flavours – Caramel Macchiato and Hazelnut Latte – are the first non-dairy flavours in the lineup and are made with a blend of almond and oat. Caramel Macchiato consists of a blend of almond and oat with layers of caramel and hints of vanilla flavour while Hazelnut Latte combines the blend of oat and almond with the flavour of hazelnuts for a "nutty, tasty treat". Eryn Pasut, marketing director of beverages at Nestlé Canada, said: "Last year, Starbucks Coffee at Home introduced Canada to its core range of coffee enhancers. The overwhelming success led to numerous inquiries on our social channels requesting a dairy-free alternative and we are now excited to deliver this product to consumers." She continued: "The two new non-dairy additions to the Starbucks Coffee Enhancers lineup provide the opportunity for more Canadians to become a barista in their own kitchen with the comfort in knowing that they can choose a product to complement their diet and lifestyle". The additions are available now and can be found in the refrigerated aisle of major grocery stores across Canada for an MSRP of $7.99 per 828ml.
