News: Caribou Coffee - New Breakfast Sandwiches to Welcome the Fall

With fall slowly approaching, Caribou Coffee is launching three new breakfast sandwiches to their line-up this Friday, August 17, 2012.

The three new sandwiches are pretty self-explanatory. They are: the Maple Bacon, Egg, and Gruyere Wheat Ciabatta (limited-time only), the Spinach, Egg, and Swiss Mini Ciabatta, and the Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit.

In addition to the new sandwiches, Caribou will be bringing back their seasonal, fall menu with Pumpkin Lattes, Pumpkin White Chocolate Mochas, new Pumpkin Chais, Pumpkin Breads, and Caramel Apple Crisp Oatmeal. The pumpkin drinks should be improved as Caribou is using a new pumpkin syrup that is made from real pumpkin.
