If there's one thing you probably already know about me from my blog and tweets alone, it's that
I am a serious Java-holic! I love me my coffee. :)
And living in our beautiful Country of Canada, I don't know what warms the heart (and hands and tummy) more than a fresh cup of "Timmies". Doesn't it make you smile when you're on the road, in need of a warm beverage, and you see a Tim Hortons on the horizon?
Aside from having probably the best coffee, their prices are fabulous! Got some change on you? Grab a Tim's Beverage!
Whenever I have meetings with clients, meeting with a good friend or a night out with my husband, this is usual the hot spot. Call it "the meeting place." :)
It's such a proud trademark of Canada.
I remember coming home from Paris (and come on, we all know Parisian's know their coffee's or café's), and the first thing I wanted when I stepped in Pearson International Airport was some Tim's Coffee!
Comfort at it's finest.
If you're not familiar with Tim Horton's -- where have you been? Here's more from their website:
Tim Hortons is one of the largest publicly traded quick-service restaurant chain in North America based on market capitalization, and the largest in Canada. Operating in the quick-service segment of the restaurant industry, Tim Hortons appeals to a broad range of consumer tastes, with a menu that includes premium coffee, espresso-based specialty coffees including lattes, cappuccinos and espresso-flavoured shots, specialty teas, home-style soups, fresh sandwiches, wraps, hot breakfast sandwiches and fresh baked goods, including our trademark donuts. As of July 3rd, 2011, Tim Hortons had 3,811 system-wide restaurants, including 3,189 in Canada and 622 in the United States. More information about Tim Hortons is available on the company’s website, at www.timhortons.com.
I was thrilled to elated to find out that Tim Hortons
introduced a brand new line of beverages to their Café Favourites family of specialty coffees.
Now, they have
latté's! Yes, latté's!
Mocha lattes and cappuccinos made with premium espresso. Starting at $2, the new drinks offer guests a delicious, fast and convenient choice for latté's, at a value price.
Starting November 14, Tim Hortons launched lattés in 2,500 locations in Canada. In mid-December, it will be in rest of Canada and U.S.
It is the largest new specialty coffee introduction ever in the country!
I really was very skeptical about Tim Hortons Lattés. Aside from only enjoying and purchasing latté's from two very popular competitors, I was pretty darn excited. And, so was my wallet.
So, of course, at my daily trip to Timmies, I decided to try out their Butter Caramel Latté.
Make sure you open your lid to catch a warm smile! :)
I was blissfully surprised after taking a sip at how good it was! Seriously.
Yum! I can honestly tell you, that it is comparable to any $6+ dollar latté anywhere else!
The new lattés are a natural extension to the popular Tim’s Café Favourites family of specialty coffees, which includes French Vanilla Cappuccino, English Toffee Cappuccino (my fav!) and Café Mocha.
Tim Hortons already sells more specialty coffees than all other quick service restaurants combined in Canada.
Tim’s Café Favourites now includes:
Classics
- French Vanilla Cappuccino
- French Vanilla Cappuccino Supreme
- English Toffee Cappuccino
- English Toffee Cappuccino Supreme
- Café Mocha
- Hot Chocolate
- White Hot Chocolate
- Apple Cider
Espresso
- Latte
- Cappuccino
- Flavoured Latte
- Flavoured Latte Supreme
- Mocha Latte
- Espresso shot (single or double)
- Tea Latte
“
We carefully explored lattes for some time,” said
Paul House, Executive Chairman, President and CEO, Tim Hortons.
“The unique blends we’ve developed deliver a rich, creamy drink, consistently and fast. With nearly half a century of coffee experience, we’ve learned how to produce premium coffee, consistently, at value prices. We’re also helping introduce high-quality lattes at a value price to people outside larger cities. A good latte isn’t easily available in many communities. Now, anyone can enjoy a delicious latte in one of our thousands of locations, or grab one in a drive through window, any time of day.
We’re fortunate to have loyal guests who have made Tim Hortons the coffee leader in Canada and a strong regional competitor in the U.S. We expect our new lattes will be enthusiastically embraced."
So, if you're wondering whether or not it's worth trying, I truly recommend it!
It's frothy, tasty, fresh and the price is right!
Tim Hortons graciously offered to give 2 of my readers an opportunity to win a $25 gift card so they can try the new latté out for themselves.
