100% human grade and free from fillers and artificial additives, the new Pumpkin Spice Latte reflects The Honest Kitchen’s unwavering commitment to premium quality. It can be served as a liquid treat on its own, a pour over or mixed into meals – offering pet parents a simple yet thoughtful way to incorporate festive flavor and the cozy comforts of fall into their dog’s routine.

“Pets are part of the family, and we believe they should be included in the moments that make each season special,” said Miki Dosen, Chief Marketing Officer at The Honest Kitchen. “Humans look forward to their first pumpkin spice latte every fall – and this launch is our way of letting dogs in on that cherished ritual, made with the same care and quality we expect for ourselves.”

To celebrate the launch – and in honor of National Dog Month – The Honest Kitchen is teaming up with Graduate by Hilton for a pop-up event at the Poindexter Coffee location in Seattle, WA on August 19. This dog-friendly celebration will feature interactive stations, fall-themed photo ops, samples of the new Pumpkin Spice Latte treat and more.

The event also kicks off a weeklong sampling initiative across Poindexter Coffee locations in Seattle, WA; Tucson, AZ; Cincinnati, OH; Annapolis, MD and Berkeley, CA. From August 19-26, pet parents can bring their pups to participating cafés within Graduate by Hilton hotels to try The Honest Kitchen’s Pumpkin Spice Latte and experience a limited-time seasonal drink menu for humans.

The Honest Kitchen’s Pumpkin Spice Latte is available at www.thehonestkitchen.com, PetSmart locations nationwide and at a variety of neighborhood pet stores – including Pet Food Express, Centinela Feed, Kahoots and Chuck & Don’s.

The data, collected as part of Pressat’s second annual workplace survey, sheds light on the professions most dependent on caffeine to power through the workweek. IT support staff also ranked highly, consuming an average of 2.39 cups per day.

At the other end of the scale, electricians, marketers, and advertising professionals reported significantly lower consumption rates, averaging around 1.3 cups a day or less. Plumbers and telesales workers also reported modest caffeine intake, at about 1.28 and 1.23 cups respectively.

A strong cup of coffee in the morning helps millions of people start their day. If you can’t function without one, you’re not alone. Across all professions, 20.32% of respondents said they feel a significant effect when they skip their usual coffee intake.

Could it be that the top drinkers in this year’s survey consumed more caffeine due to the high-pressure, thinly stretched nature of their roles? Many of these professions have also been heavily affected by external factors over the past few years.

“This is the second survey we’ve carried out to analyse and identify the professions that consume the most coffee. Journalists ranked the highest previously, with healthcare workers rising from fifth to second place. The results were not surprising, especially considering the coronavirus outbreak and NHS budget cuts. We fully expected those working on the frontline-such as doctors, nurses, and healthcare staff-to top the list, but journalists are still the kings and queens of coffee drinkers, trembling with caffeine in first place,” said Max Forrest at Pressat.

Although journalists and media staff drink the most coffee per day, marketing professionals spend the most on it, with an average weekly spend of €13.27. They’re followed closely by advertising professionals (€12.98), electricians (€12.96), police officers (€12.88), plumbers and trade workers (€12.82), company executives (€12.72), and journalists/media staff (€12.66).

The professions most likely to prefer plant-based milk-such as oat milk-in their coffee include police officers (21.99%), company executives (21.98%), and plumbers or trade workers (20.93%). Teachers (20.25%) and retail staff (20.24%) also showed a strong inclination toward non-dairy options. This shift suggests that plant-based alternatives are no longer confined to traditionally health-conscious or creative industries, but are gaining traction across a wide spectrum of professions, possibly reflecting broader dietary trends and increasing awareness of environmental and health considerations.

Everyone is affected by caffeine in different ways. Many are highly sensitive to its stimulating and cognitive effects and must adjust their intake accordingly.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers 400 milligrams of caffeine per day to be generally safe for most people-that’s about four or five cups of coffee. The European Food Safety Authority has reached similar conclusions, with the exception of a lower recommended limit for pregnant women.

Survey methodology:

This survey was conducted online by the UK’s leading press release distribution service Pressat among 20,000 workers (those employed full-time, freelancers, business owners and the self-employed, aged 18 and over) between January and March 2025

Lavazza said, as reported by Il Sole 24 Ore: “We wanted to sponsor an Italian player, a young one, we were interested in giving this sign of attention and one of our very experienced collaborators told us ‘you have to bet on Jannik. The others can become good, but in my opinion he is phenomenal'”.

At the time, Sinner was only 17 years old and 140th in the Atp ranking. According to Giuseppe Lavazza, Sinner and the company share “the determination to reach the goal, the spirit of sacrifice, the leveraging of one’s abilities, including the ability to suffer.”

Lavazza continues: “With tennis we have built a path of great visibility for the company, we have managed to get millions of people to taste our product. It is an investment that has given us a lot back, and we will continue to do so.”

It was Pope Clement VIII who was the first to accept the drink. According to the legend, the pope was immediately pleased with the taste of coffee and said, “This devil’s drink is delicious. We should cheat the devil by baptizing it.”

From then on, coffee became more and more popular. Even today, coffee plays an important role in the Pope’s life. In fact, during a traditional audience in Vatican City, Pope Francis expressed appreciation for Costa Rican coffee.

Pope Francis told a group of pilgrims from the Diocese of Ciudad Quesada, “You know you have the best coffee in the world.”

The Bishop of Ciudad Quesada also gave the Pope a bag of coffee. Pope Francis showed his appreciation for it during a pilgrimage made by the Diocese of Ciudad Quesada to the Vatican for the Jubilee 2025.

This is not the first time the Pope has claimed that Costa Rica has the best coffee in the world. In 2019, Pope Francis greeted Carlos Alvarado, the President of Costa Rica, saying, “You are the President of the world’s best coffee.”

The Apple Fritter held on to the title of the top Tim Hortons donut for another year, after unseating the Boston Cream as the top selling donut in Canada in 2023.

However, the Boston Cream was No. 1 across the Maritimes, and in Quebec, the Honey Cruller continued to be the most beloved Tims donut of them all. In Quebec, the Honey Cruller is so iconic that they’re affectionately nicknamed the “tractor wheel” by Tims fans in the province. In terms of Timbits, the Chocolate Glazed Timbit was the most popular Timbit across Canada.

Tims Flatbread Pizzas launched across Canada in April and the Pepperoni was the most popular flavour, just ahead of Chicken Parmesan.

Here’s a look at some of the other top Tims orders from 2024:

• To no one’s surprise, the Double Double coffee remained the most popular coffee order among guests, while the top cold beverage was the Iced Capp, which celebrated its 25th anniversary this year.
• Tims launched Infusr energy beverages in July and the Blackberry Yuzu was the most popular flavour. Strawberry Watermelon was the top Quenchers cold beverage flavour.
• Tims brought back Omelette Bites in January to give guests another delicious breakfast option and the top pick was the Bacon and Cheese flavour.
• The Halloween Ghost Mug was the fastest selling Tims merchandise item of the year, both on TimShop.ca and in Tims restaurants.
• Tims guests were incredibly supportive of all the Tim Hortons charitable programs – including the Special Olympics Donut, Smile Cookie, Camp Day, Orange Sprinkle Donut, and Holiday Smile Cookie – and helped raise $44.1 million over the course of 2024.
• Tims Rewards is one of the most popular loyalty programs in Canada and members loved using their points and offers to get a little caffeine boost – the most popular offer in the Tims app this year was for hot beverages and the most common points redemption was for a free coffee.
• The most popular Tims Delivery order of the year was for four coffees.

“2024 was a really special year for all of us as we celebrated the 60th anniversary of the brand and we’d like to thank our guests for making us a part of their lives day after day and year after year. I’d also like to thank Tims restaurant owners and their team members for being there for their guests every day and doing so much to support their communities,” said Axel Schwan, president of Tim Hortons.

“We have lots of exciting plans for 2025 and we can’t wait to start revealing some fun surprises for guests in the weeks and months to come.”
