PJ’s Coffee Brings a Taste of Mardi Gras to Locations Around the Country with Themed Beverages

“Mardi Gras may look different this year in New Orleans without parades, but PJ’s keeps the tradition of king cake flavored coffee alive throughout Carnival season,” says Felton Jones, PJ’s Coffee Roastmaster. “We welcome customers everywhere to enjoy a small taste of Mardi Gras with King Cake Crème, Latte and Protein Velvet Ice, as well as Zulu Coconut Iced Mocha.”

PJ’s Coffee of New Orleans Mardi Gras Flavors:

PJ’s Coffee of New Orleans was founded in 1978 by Phyllis Jordan, a pioneer in the coffee industry that demonstrated that better beans, superior roasting techniques, and pure passion for the art of coffeemaking mattered. In 2008, the company was purchased by New Orleans natives and brothers, Paul, Steven and Scott Ballard. PJ’s Coffee serves a wide variety of hot, iced and frozen coffee beverages using only the top 1% of Arabica beans, as well as organic tea and fresh breakfast pastries.

PJ’s Original Cold Brew™ Ice Coffee is brewed daily using a special cold-drip process that protects the flavor and strength of the beans, while producing a coffee that is 2/3 less acidic – a process and technique pioneered by our founder and used for more than 30 years at all PJ’s locations. Bags of whole bean coffee, single serve cups of PJ’s Coffee and PJ’s Iced Coffee Concentrate are available for sale in-store and online.
