“These flavourful frozen coffees are the perfect mid-afternoon pick-me-up for our guests needing a happiness jolt to their day and we know once people taste Cold Brew Frozen Coffee, it will become a must-have refreshment!”

Rita’s Italian Ice & Frozen Custard product development and quality assurance director Brianne Barket said: “Being in the business of frozen treats, launching an indulgent and better frozen coffee that differentiates from every other frozen coffee product out there was second nature for us.

“After testing frozen coffee in shops last year to an overwhelming positive response from guests, we’re focused on growing our beverage line to meet growing consumer demand for all-day refreshment and on-the-go portability.”

In March 2022, Rita’s announced the opening of its casino shop at the Rivers Casino Philadelphia in Pennsylvania as part of its strategy to expand into non-traditional locations.

This location joins a variety of existing non-traditional units across theme parks and stadiums. The company also announced its plans to open its first store in an airport.
