Nescafe USA has expanded its product range with the launch of its first-ever liquid coffee concentrate, Nescafe Espresso Concentrate.

Made from 100 per cent Arabica beans, the coffee concentrate is available in two flavours: Black and Sweet Vanilla. It can be served over ice or mixed with milk or water.

The Nescafe Espresso Concentrate was successfully launched last year in Australia and China.

Felipe Acosta, the senior brand manager for Nescafe, said the new format is designed to provide consumers with an easier way to create cafe-style drinks at home.

“While the tastes of Gen Z and millennial consumers are constantly evolving, the demand for cold, convenient, customisable, and cafe-quality coffee remains strong,” said Acosta.

The company says two out of three youth globally regularly drink cold coffee drinks.

“The brand’s first-ever liquid espresso empowers consumer creativity, allowing adventurous coffee lovers to make beverages in an instant – without the need for any extra machinery, all from the comfort of their own homes.”

Nescafe Espresso Concentrate comes in a 300ml bottle – enough for about 20 cups of espresso when prepared as directed – and has an RRP of US$9.49.
