Caribou Coffee makes my heart melt!!
I absolutely enjoy going to Caribou Coffee!! I think their coffee is the BEST and I really enjoy the atmosphere they have created in their shops. This company was started in the twin city area and for those who don’t live in MN or one of the other 15 states it has expanded into, they are missing out on a great coffee shop experience. I really like the fact that they strive to buy coffee from foreign countries at fair prices rather than taking advantage of cheap labor. Caribou recently started using real melted chocolate in their chocolate flavored coffees—what more could a chocoholic ask for?
I certainly have my favorite beverages, but I enjoy favorites from many different types of beverages offered. During the summer months, I really like their coolers and smoothies. My favorite summer beverage is the Campfire Mocha cooler or the Strawberry/Banana smoothie. My kids always like the Oreo Snowdrifts. In the fall, they offer a wonderful Pumpkin Spice cooler that is amazing and at Christmas time they whip up a sensational HO HO Mocha!! Any other time during the cold months, I really enjoy the Campfire Mocha hot coffee beverage.
You can sign up to receive emails from Caribou and often on your birthday you will receive an email for a FREE coffee. Throughout the year you will receive other promotional emails for free or reduced beverages. Often on the first day of summer you can stop in the store during a certain time and receive a free sample of a new beverage being offered during the summer.

Another fun thing they do is have a daily trivia question posted that you will receive $.10 off your beverage if you get the answer correct. Caribou is also trying hard to conserve on paper cups and cup wraps, so if you bring in a specially purchased sustainability mug—you receive $.50 off your beverage purchase. At their website, you can submit phrases about what you “stay awake for” that could be printed on their cups.
