Convenience-store chains are celebrating National Coffee Day on Sept. 29—or International Coffee Day on Oct. 1—with deals.
Pilot Co.
Knoxville, Tennessee-based Pilot is tying its limited-time release of three fall flavors to National Coffee Day, offering customers ordering through the myRewards Plus app a free hot or iced coffee in any size Sept. 29. The three flavors are:
- Bourbon Pecan hot coffee: Back by popular demand, this rich and nutty blend is enhanced with just a hint of sweetness.
- Cinnamon Roll cold brew: This cold brew captures the essence of a classic cinnamon roll, delivering a smooth, flavorful pick-me-up.
- Cinnabon Pumpkin Spice cappuccino: Combining the taste of a Cinnabon with the warm spices of pumpkin, this cappuccino is a treat.
“When dreaming up our fall coffee lineup, we set out to craft the ultimate cup of cozy comfort for every driver on the road,” said Sean Marrero, vice president of food and beverage at Pilot. “Whether you’re embarking on a scenic road trip, gearing up for a football game or just navigating the morning rush, our new brews are here to add a little more joy to every mile.”
