Chipotle Mexican Grill has just launched a new range of ready-to-drink beverages, featuring poppi, Open Water, and Coke Zero. These options are now available across all Chipotle locations in the U.S. for dine-in, takeout, and delivery as of July 22, 2024.
Chipotle, established in 1993, has always aimed to redefine fast food with high-quality ingredients, classic culinary methods, and a chef-driven menu. Their latest beverage additions reflect this ongoing commitment to providing healthier, environmentally friendly options.
The latest beverage lineup focuses on health-conscious choices. Chipotle has partnered with poppi to offer two refreshing flavors: Strawberry Lemon and Orange. These sodas have only five grams of sugar and 25 calories or less per can. Made with real fruit and prebiotics, they offer a refreshing taste without the guilt.
Chipotle’s culinary team has paired these new sodas with specific menu items to enhance the dining experience. The poppi Strawberry Lemon pairs well with the Chicken Salad, which includes roasted chili-corn salsa, fajita veggies, and chipotle-honey vinaigrette. The poppi Orange is a great match for the Steak Quesadilla, served with sides of guacamole, cilantro-lime white rice, and fresh tomato salsa. These pairings are designed to complement the flavors of the food, offering a balanced and enjoyable meal. For those who prefer no-sugar options, bottled Coke Zero is now available at Chipotle as well.
In addition to these soda offerings, Chipotle is taking steps to reduce plastic waste by introducing Open Water, a brand known for its recyclable aluminum water bottles. This move aligns with Chipotle’s mission to cultivate a better world. Open Water is a female-owned and LGBTQIA+ founded business, and Chipotle is proud to be their largest restaurant partner. By offering these aluminum bottles, Chipotle aims to significantly cut down on plastic waste. A portion of Open Water’s revenue from Chipotle sales will support regenerative agriculture projects, furthering their environmental impact.
Chipotle’s new beverage offerings are a testament to their continuous effort to innovate and provide better options for their customers. Whether you’re dining in, taking out, or getting delivery, these new drinks are sure to complement your Chipotle meal perfectly.
