Ready-to-Drink (RTD) Coffee

Busy? Constantly Occupied? No time to brew coffee? Does the situation above sounds familiar? Not all of us have the luxury of having a secretary to brew a pot of coffee for us every morning. Whilst eating energy bar and drinking energy drink may be the solution to overcome the lack of sleep, they are certainly not feasible in the long run. Furthermore, they are not as tasty as a cup of brewed coffee.

Fret not, get Ready-to-Drink coffees instead. Ready-to-Drink coffees or RTD coffees are coffees ready for consumption, usually prepackaged in a can or bottle. Some of these RTD coffees are almost as good as gourmet coffee, although they’ll never be the same.

RTD coffees are best drink with ice or chilled and many RTD coffee producers intentionally make the RTD coffees best served chilled with menthol-like ingredient.

These days, coffee house powerhouses such as Starbucks and UCC also join in the fray for Ready-to-Drink coffees by duplicating its gourmet coffee in cans and bottles. These coffees can be readily found in supermarkets and convenient stores everywhere. Ready-to-Drink coffees are now quite ubiquitous and mostly are also a fraction of the price brewed gourmet coffee would cost you.
