All the Monin syrups at Caribou Coffee are vegan so if you love your latte flavored make sure to pick a Monin one (just double check the caramel syrup at your Caribou is the Monin brand before ordering). The result of ordering a Caribou latte with almond milk and caramel syrup? A warming latte with all the caramel vibes. 2. Soy Cappuccino *Substitute dairy milk for soy milk* A foamy cappuccino made with soy. What's not to love? 3. Depth Charge *Order as-is* The depth charge is the best option on this list if you need a serious caffeine hit. A depth charge at Caribou Coffee is essentially a "red eye", i.e. fresh-brewed coffee spiked with a shot of espresso. Obviously, as it doesn't contain any dairy or sweetener you don't need to worry about it not being vegan. You can read more about whether coffee is always vegan here – Is Coffee Vegan?

This iced tea is not sweetened and therefore is vegan. Sweetened iced tea is sometimes not vegan if it has been sweetened with honey or if it is sweetened with sugar that has been processed with bone char. 6. Cold Press Iced Coffee *Order as-is* * Add a splash of almond or soy milk if desired* The cold press iced coffee is cold-brewed Caribou blend coffee served over ice. You can add a splash of soy or almond if you want. This is the best option on this list if you want a drink that is cooling but still packs a punch in the caffeine department. 7. Iced Almond Latte with Vanilla Syrup *Substitute dairy milk for almond milk* *Add Monin vanilla syrup* An iced vanilla almond latte is simply the best summertime drink that feels like a yummy treat. Just make sure to double-check the vanilla syrup at your Caribou Coffee location is the Monin brand. This is because Monin syrups are vegan. 8. Coffee of The Day *Order as-is* Caribou’s coffee of the day consists of a selection of regular and seasonal coffees. Caribou's coffees are brewed every hour to ensure maximum freshness. If you want a bit of creaminess in your coffee, then you can add a dash of almond or soy milk. This is the perfect simple no-frills vegan drink. 9. Espresso *Order as-is* If you are coming to Caribou for a short vegan drink that picks your up, then you simply can't beat an espresso. Simple and classic. 10. Strawberry Banana Smoothie *Substitute the yogurt for almond or soy milk* The smoothies at Caribou are not vegan as-is, as they contain yogurt.
