If it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year, then this Central Perk coffee line by The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf might just be the pick-me-up you need. In honour of the 25th anniversary of Friends [1], the coffee company partnered with Warner Bros. to create a few drinks inspired by the show, along with a line of coffee and tea products you can have delivered straight to your door. This is so much better than a Central Perk pop-up shop [2]!
The special-edition Central Perk roasts [3] are currently available for purchase online at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf's website and will hit retailers nationwide on July 31. The coffee line features a nutty medium roast blend, a dark roast blend with a hint of cocoa, and a citrus berry black tea — Regina Phalange would definitely approve.
Beginning on July 31, The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf will also release six limited-edition drinks named after the show's iconic coffee-drinking crew. Some of the new drinks include The Joey (Mango Cold Brew Tea), The Monica (Midnight Mocha Cold Brew), and The Ross (Classic Flat White).
You just might need a special Central Perk drink to help you binge Friends before it leaves Netflix for good in 2020 [4]. But the limited-edition drinks will only be available at participating stores [5] through Aug. 27, so see each one ahead, and snag 'em while you can!
