One exec said it best:
“Everything’s a focus group… you’ve got to stay thirsty for insights.”
That’s the real playbook — listen, iterate, evolve.

For Gen Z, drinks = identity.
They’re shareable, customizable, and caffeinated — perfect for social feeds.
Taco Bell wants to be the place where caffeine meets culture.

McDonald’s tried CosMc’s — and failed.
Starbucks owns “drinks as lifestyle.”
Taco Bell’s twist?
Integrate drinks into the existing brand DNA — colorful, irreverent, affordable.
A low-risk pivot with high-culture potential.

Their first Live Más Cafe in California did 4× its sales forecast.
Now some locations sell 900 drinks a day — and a third of all orders include a specialty beverage.
The iced latte revolution isn’t just for Starbucks anymore.

Why drinks? Because the numbers are wild.
Top 500 chains increased beverage menus by 9% in 1 year.
Taco Bell alone sold 600 million drinks in 2025, up 16% YoY.
High margin. Low waste. Huge vibes.

The plan is bold: remodel restaurants into “Live Más Cafes” — hybrid spaces serving iced lattes, dirty sodas, and dessert-like “Chillers.”
It’s a direct play for caffeine culture and the TikTok drink crowd.
