Coffee Mate is getting in on the coffee game — and not with a new creamer. On Monday, the brand announced that they are launching their own iced coffee in two flavors — French vanilla and caramel. The new product speaks to the increased popularity of iced coffee and also marks the first time in Coffee Mate's history that they've introduced a product outside of creamers. The new flavors are available in select retailers nationwide now.

"Enjoying cold coffee year-round has become a 'personality trait' for many coffee drinkers who are choosing iced over everything," Leonardo Aizpuru, Nestle Vice President of Brand Marketing for the Beverage and Business Unit said in a statement. "This growing love for iced coffee — especially among Gen Z — presented an idea opportunity for Coffee Mate to move beyond creamers for the first time in its 60+ years since inception. We're excited to fuel our fans in a new way with a ready-to-drink iced coffee that gives consumers an easy, yet indulgent way to enjoy at home.

As was noted, Coffee Mate Iced Coffee comes in two flavors, French Vanilla and Caramel. It has a suggested retail price of $4.99 for a 50 fl oz bottle. According to the brand both flavors feature smooth coffee balanced with Coffee Mate liquid creamer that all you have to do is pour over ice to enjoy. Each bottle contains around 5 servings and contains 25% less sugar than most dairy-based iced coffees.
