The Keurig KOLD system is finally here and it’s what we all have been waiting for. Keurig KOLD is the first beverage system that allows consumers to freshly make cold sparkling and still beverages at home at the push of a button, including beloved favorites from The Coca-Cola Company and Dr. Pepper Snapple Group. For the first time, consumers will be able to actually make a Coca-Cola or a Dr. Pepper on their kitchen counter. The Keurig KOLD system encourages choice and discovery, including new and exciting exclusive beverage brands from categories including craft and fountain-style sodas, zero- and low-calorie flavored seltzers and waters, sports hydration drinks, iced teas and – coming soon – cocktail mixers. We are looking forward to that!
Keurig KOLD is now available via Keurig.com and will be sold at select retailers both online and in six cities in October, including Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, and New York. In addition to the versatility of the system and broad beverage variety available, the Keurig KOLD system incorporates innovative features and technology, including:
- Fresh-made. The KOLD pod and drink maker do all the work. Simply remove the freshness seal from the bottom of the pod, pop it in, push the button and freshly make a cold beverage, mixed to just the right taste each and every time.
- Carbonation without a CO2 To make carbonated beverages, the Keurig KOLD system uniquely uses Carbonator beads, which are contained within the pod and hold beverage-grade CO2. During the drink-making process, CO2 is naturally released into the beverage to perfectly carbonate each drink.
- Drinks delivered chilled. The innovative KOLD chiller uses an aerospace-inspired thermal transfer system to rapidly cool beverages to the ideal chilled temperature.
- Perfectly portioned. Keurig KOLD delivers beverages at eight-ounce portion size, and nearly all beverages have 100 calories or less.
- Space savings. KOLD pods need no refrigeration so consumers can easily store more beverage choices in their pantry or in their countertop KOLD pod carousel, offering everyone, including family and guests, exactly the cold beverage they want, when they want it.

Our personal favorite was the Passion Fruit Tea. The Keurig KOLD drink maker ($369.99 SRP) is available in either white or black and comes with a set of two Keurig® KOLD drink maker glasses. The KOLD pods ($4.49-$4.99 SRP for a four-count box) along with additional drink maker accessories, such as storage carousels and a variety of specialty-designed glassware, are now available on Keurig.
