STōK Cold Brew added its newest limited-edition flavor of cold brew: peppermint mocha.

“While we all wish that cold weather and the upcoming holiday season meant hunkering down and cozying up by the fire for the next few months, STōK knows that the reality is that there are always a million things to get done, no matter the season,” said Brittney Polka, vice president of ready-to-drink beverages and lead for STōK Cold Brew, at Danone North America. “It’s exactly why STōK Cold Brew launched Peppermint Mocha — because managing the winter season is more enjoyable with a glass full of the coffee-forward, winter flavors you love always in your gloved hand.”

“Health-Ade is a delicious, easy way to support your gut health during the holiday season,” said Claire Chewning, registered dietitian adviser at Health-Ade. “Good nutrition is all about adding in, not restricting unnecessarily. Adding in sources of fermented foods and probiotics, like kombucha, can increase the number of good bacteria in your gut. For many, this can help manage symptoms of bloating and other digestive discomforts. For another gut-happy practice, you can also consider swapping alcohol for a few fun Health-Ade Kombucha mocktails. Cheers to a delicious and nourished holiday season.”
