“Fall coffee season gets a lot of attention, but it usually follows the same script,” said Melissa Blette, Senior Brand Manager, Reese’s Brand, The Hershey Company. “As the No. 1 Halloween candy, Reese’s belongs in that conversation — so we’re here to rewrite it. Together with The Nitro Bar, we’ve taken the classic chocolate and peanut butter combination fans love and turned it into a sippable seasonal ritual with the Reese’s Pumpkins PB Whip Latte. This isn’t pumpkin spice with a new label. It’s our pumpkin in a cup — fun, fall-forward and unmistakably Reese’s.”

“I cannot tell you how pumped we were when Reese’s reached out to work together.
