14 Jun Top Portland, Eugene, and Salem Office Beverages Besides Hot Coffee
The first thing many employees do each morning is look at the office beverages and grab their favorite. For most, that’s a steaming cup of hot coffee, but not all. More than half your staff wants something else to drink. Are you offering that in your Portland break room? We can help ensure you are.
Here are the top three office beverages consumed in the workplace:
1. Iced coffee
Iced coffee is refreshing and provides a boost of energy. It’s a popular alternative to soda. Plus, it can be less acidic than hot coffee if it’s made from cold brew coffee.
To get iced coffee in your break room, Royal ReFresh can add a high-end cold brew tap or iced coffee machine. It’s part of our Eugene office coffee service. It’s also a great way to encourage employees to celebrate and talk together. Iced coffee has a fun vibe, yet is nonalcoholic.
Not ready for a cold brew tap? Instead, add canned or bottled cold brew and iced coffee options in a cold drink vending machine. Or better yet, in a Salem micro market. Micro markets offer a lot of room for different drink options. Beyond cold brew, we stock many healthy snacks, fresh food, and daily essentials, too. That makes a micro market an employee retention tool.
2. Water
Employees are reaching for water more and more. Water is the best way to hydrate. It has no calories, sugars, or additives. It helps your body replace water lost during the day and boosts health. Plus, there is even research that shows it can stabilize your mood.
Our Portland vending machines have bottled water for refreshing sips at any time. You can also take your water up a notch with water filtration service. Royal ReFresh installs a water filtering system that removes bad-tasting particles from your office water. The water dispenser at the other end can be full-size or compact enough to sit on the counter. It includes hot and cold water taps. The result is that staff can refill cups and water bottles with great-tasting filtered water.
3. Tea, the Most Overlooked of Office Beverages
One of the most popular office beverages is tea, especially iced tea. Some brewers can make it fresh for the office. Or, you can request bottled iced tea options in your cold beverage vending machine or micro market.
Hot tea can be a strong alternative to coffee for many employees. One reason is health. Green tea especially is high in antioxidants, which may help prevent or remedy cellular damage.
Another reason some staff may choose tea over office coffee is the caffeine. Or lack thereof. If Eugene employees are sensitive to caffeine or looking for a late afternoon drink choice, they might want tea. Herbal teas are often naturally caffeine-free.
Royal ReFresh Brings a Mix of Office Beverages to You
The right mix of office beverages is a cheap and easy benefit to offer employees. It means going beyond office coffee, however. Try iced coffee, filtered water, or tea to meet the needs of all your staff. That will help them be more productive and happier.
