Following the big launch of the movie Coffee Wars, the COFFEE WARS team has partnered with Cuvee Coffee in Austin to offer a special Coffee Wars Bouquet Latte. This vegan-friendly latte is crafted with lavender syrup and a scoop of Chagaccino at both of their locations in Austin, Texas. The promo runs in both Austin, Texas as well as Seattle, Washington from 3/27-4/2.
More about the special latte in Austin, Texas:
COFFEE WARS BOUQUET LATTE – a latte with your choice of vegan milk (oat, soy, almond, or hemp), lavender syrup, and a scoop of Chagaccino, served hot or iced, inspired by the film and available with a custom Coffee Wars sleeve.
More about the latte in Seattle:
This traditional latte is made with oat milk with an added Saffron spice for an added unique flavor.
As the film follows the Vegan barista Jo, the drink includes Chagaccino, a plant-based and vegan product that Cuvee use in their shop. It’s made up of Chaga mushrooms, cacao, cinnamon, vanilla, and monk fruit. The special ingredient along with the lavender syrup makes for a sweet floral drink that Cuvee customers will love and is inspired by the character Jo played by Kate Nash!

SYNOPSIS
Coffee aficionado, Jo (Kate Nash), is doing her best to keep her plant-based, independent coffee shop afloat alongside her band of misfit employees. In a last-ditch effort to save her business, Jo and her team embark to battle it out as the underdogs competing in the World Barista Championship in order to finally have a chance to prove herself in the dairy-dominated world of coffee.
Some cool aspects of the making of the film include the fact that much of the cast and crew were vegan, all costumes were 100% vegan, all the milk used in the film was plant-based, all make-up and hair products were vegan, and the filmmakers even adopted and “set free” to animal rescue farms the animals used in the feature.
