Miko has launched its new Spring Summer Drink Collection 2026, a curated range of creative hot and cold drink recipes designed to help foodservice and bar operators maximise customer spend during the warmer months.
Developed by the Miko Recipe Development Team and incorporating SHOTT Super Concentrates, the Collection responds to evolving consumer expectations around flavour, customisation and premium non-alcoholic drinks, while remaining practical to deliver in busy hospitality environments.
“The role of drinks on menus has changed significantly,” said Jenna Horsnell, Marketing and Commercial Manager at Miko Coffee. “Consumers are looking for more than just refreshment – they want flavour, theatre and a sense of indulgence, whether they’re ordering a coffee, a soft drink or a low or no alcohol option.”
The Collection features high-margin, on-trend serves, including hot and frozen coffees, iced lattes, matcha drinks, chai, hot chocolates, milkshakes, lemonades, spritzers and granitas. Recipes are designed to work across multiple dayparts, helping operators refresh menus and introduce seasonal specials without adding operational complexity.
One of the standout trends reflected in the Collection is the rise of dessert-inspired drinks as all-day options, with nostalgic flavours reimagined in lighter, more drinkable formats. Recipes such as Sticky Toffee Pudding Iced Latte, Berry Crumble Custard Iced Matcha and Cherry Bakewell Milkshake sit alongside frozen fruity lemonades, flavoured spritzers and granitas to cater to warmer weather and refreshment-led occasions.
“Dessert flavours are no longer confined to after-dinner treats,” said Jenna. “When reworked into cold or lighter formats, they perform just as well during the day and pair naturally with lunchtime and takeaway purchases, helping operators drive incremental spend.”
As drinks continue to play a bigger role in driving value, the Collection supports the growing demand for flavour-led low and no alcohol serves that feel considered and premium. For operators, these drinks add visual appeal, elevate perceived value and encourage trade-up, turning everyday visits into more memorable experiences.
The Miko Spring Summer Drink Collection 2026 is now available to foodservice and hospitality operators, offering practical inspiration to drive engagement and incremental revenue throughout the spring and summer seasons.
