Coffee Gets an Upgrade (Excerpt
from The Bottom Line magazine)
While coffee is part of most people’s daily routine in North America, tea is the most popular drink around the world (after water). Tea is globally renowned for many reasons including its vast varieties, health benefits, and soothing effects. Whether your beverage of choice is coffee or tea, coffee connoisseurs and tea masters have been reinventing these drinks for centuries infusing flavours, utilizing unique brewing techniques, and experimenting with additives and toppings such as fluffy foam (dairy or plant-based) or a squeeze of lemon. The possibilities are endless… With winter around the corner, more and more guests will want to wrap their hands around a warm mug filled to the brim with a comforting hot beverage. You don’t have to operate a coffee shop or service station to fuel your patrons. With so many options, you can create drinks that complement your menu concept. We’ve packed this issue full of featured items to bring your customers out of the cold and into your establishment to enjoy your signature brew.

Canadian Dairy Commission Price Increase
The Canadian Dairy Commission (CDC) offers a framework
for managing Canada’s dairy industry, a shared federal
and provincial responsibility. It serves as a facilitator in
forums that influence Canada’s dairy policy. The CDC
monitors dairy production to avoid shortages or surpluses,
and mandate fair trade for milk producers.
In October 2021, the CDC conducted a review of Canadian
farm gate milk prices and various other costs used in
administering the supply management system. As a result,
the CDC intends to implement the following price increases
on February 1, 2022.
• 8.4% for Farm gate milk
• 12.4% for Butter
The increase is a result of the rise in cost of production due
to the COVID-19 pandemic mainly in areas such as feed,
energy, and fertilizer. The increase in the cost to processors
will depend on the butterfat and solids non-fat content of
the product they manufacture.
The new farm gate milk prices will become official once
they are approved by provincial authorities in early
December 2021. Visit the CDC site to learn more:
https://cdc-ccl.ca/index.php/en/news/latest-news/latest-
news-for-2021/farm-gate-milk-prices-to-be-increased
Please be advised this will impact certain SKUs by suppliers
in the dairy industry.

Beverage Trends
Over the decades we can see how the beverage industry has grown into the robust category it is
today, constantly mixing things up – literally! With food trends constantly influencing flavour profiles,
convenience, and health, beverage has been a worthy advocate. Here’s a look at top items
in the market.
Alternative Milk
Just as plant-based meats have flourished in the market, plant-based milk
beverages were not far behind. With an increase in reducing global footprints
and being evermore environmentally conscious, products such as oat and
almond milk have increased in demand.
Smoothies & Juices
For health reasons and convenience, smoothies and juices have become the
grab n’ go go-to for many with busy active schedules. The flavour combinations
and ingredients are endless when it comes to creating these delicious and
nutritious beverages.
Umami Cocktails
Walking in foods’ footsteps, beverages were quick to follow the umami craze.
Umami food and beverages has often been described as containing savory
elements. While a savory cocktail may sound strange, beverages such as
martinis with a splash of olive brine or a bloody Mary with a glove of garlic
and a dash of horseradish can be quite an explosion of flavour.
Cold Brewed Coffee
It’s delicious. Need we say more? Cold brewed coffee is coffee that has been
steeped over a long period of time, not brewed. One of the benefits of making
coffee this way, is it is still simple to impart other flavours but allows you to enjoy
a cool refreshing caffeinated treat.
Infused Teas
Many turn to a cup of soothing tea for medicinal purposes such as reducing
stress, boosting your immune system, and getting a better night’s rest. While
this is not a new trend, it has become more prevalent showcasing exotic
ingredients such as ginger, licorice root, or turmeric.
Cocktail Kits
These have allowed consumers to bring the bar right into their own living room,
and a chance to play bartender at that. With people staying at home more,
this gained tremendous popularity. Restaurants, and liquor brands, quickly
jumped on board during the onset of the pandemic by offering signature drinks
in a take-home format.
