From Tabletop To Drive Thru

With Splenda Stevia, the only stevia grown in the U.S., and Equal also available from Heartland Food Products Group, you can offer the sweetener choices patients and residents want, all from one source. That means greater choice with less complexity for your operation.

Splenda also offers zero-sugar creamers in cups and bottles as well as bottled syrups for coffees, teas, and dirty sodas.  Zero-sugar dirty sodas give you an easy way to get more from your fountain for customers avoiding sugar.

Top chains use Splenda Bulk Beverage Sweetener Pouches that save time, cut staff training, and reduce mess are ideal for maximizing beverage throughput. It is the easy way to assure consistency that consumers expect to maintain loyalty.

Java House^® Cold Brew 

Cold brew coffee by Java House offers a new, more efficient way to serve the beverage. Java House Cold Brew Concentrates means you just add water for a consistent great taste without equipment. Cold brew can command a higher price compared to what customers are willing to pay compared  to iced coffee because of its smoother, less acidic flavor.

For operators with alcoholic beverages, the same can be said of Java House Espresso Cocktail Mix for speeding service with less hassle of espresso martinis and other trending cocktails or mocktails.

The Extra For Your Beverage Sales

The zero-sugar angle for driving LTO and incremental beverage-only occasions is significant. Splenda is all that you need as your secret for added profitability. Java House tops it off with added convenience for trend forward beverages. It all boils down to more traffic, more profit all inside the cup.

Travelers aren’t leaving their beverage expectations at home. In fact, beverages are becoming an increasingly important part of the guest experience, from the first cup of coffee in the morning to an afternoon recharge, a grab-and-go pick-me-up or an evening drink.

New 2026 research from NIQ and the American Hotel & Lodging Association shows just how big the opportunity is. Coffee is the most-purchased non-alcoholic beverage during hotel stays, chosen by 43% of consumers. Coffee also performs 11 percentage points better in hotels than across other hospitality channels.
