Ventura Foods debuts Disney Frozen–themed hot cocoa and spiced cider for OCS & vending
Ventura Foods has launched a Disney-licensed hot beverage line exclusively for vending machines and office coffee service (OCS) channels. Inspired by Disney’s Frozen, the lineup includes Individual packets of a Disney Hot Cocoa (Olaf) and a Disney Spiced Cider (Sven), both designed for shelf stability and brand impact.
The hot cocoa offers a creamy chocolate flavor while the spiced cider combines apple and warm spice notes. Both beverages are positioned to appeal during colder seasons or as comforting workplace offerings.
Ventura Foods markets both products as mix-with-water packets in a ready-to-display carton.
Ahmad Popal, senior vice president of food innovation and customer experience at Ventura Foods, emphasized that these Disney-themed hot beverages offer operators a “memorable moment” product with straightforward operations and profitability potential.
