Triple O's is not alone in experiencing the year-round cold beverage boom some attribute to social media, younger consumers and evolving palates.

Hot coffee is still the most common drink ordered in the country, but a recent Restaurants Canada report showed it's slipped in popularity at quick-serve establishments between March 2022 and 2023. Cold beverage categories like iced and frozen coffee, milkshakes and smoothies, and energy and sports drinks have all gained ground.
Meanwhile, Starbucks Canada brought spicy fruit drinks, lemonades and berry beverages to its roster of frappuccinos, iced teas and refreshers. Most of these places let customers mix drinks together or play around with flavoured syrups, whipped cream and different strengths of coffee, which keep diners coming back and racking up larger tabs.
Trey Powell, Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc.'s senior vice-president of global merchandising, also notices customers seeking out cold drinks because many have "functional benefits" stemming from ingredients that provide lasting hydration, boost nutrition or deliver energy. Planning is already underway for next summer and customers can expect plenty of cold beverage innovation then, too.
