When do Tim Hortons summer drinks come out in Canada?
The cold-drink lineup arrives in early April, well before summer starts. The dates below come from Canadian coverage and Tim Hortons' own releases; we did not check 2024.

|---|---|---|
| 2023 | April 5, 2023 | OREO Double Stuf Iced Capp, OREO Strawberry Creamy Chill, Caramel Toffee Cold Brew |

What were the Tim Hortons summer drinks in 2026?
The 2026 lineup had five new drink families, announced across three dates: April 2, June 18 and July 22.
What are Protein Quenchers?
Protein Quenchers are creamy, fruity drinks made with a lactose-free, high-protein dairy beverage, with 14 grams of protein per medium. They come in five flavours: Blackberry Yuzu, Orange Tangerine, Peach, Strawberry Watermelon and Raspberry Mojito.
What is the Raspberry Mojito Zero Sugar Sparkling Quencher?
It is a sparkling drink with a tangy raspberry mojito flavour, served over ice with a dried slice of lime, and it contains zero sugar. Matthew Feaver, Tim Hortons' Head of Innovation, called it "proof that you can have a beverage that's vibrant, refreshing, and delicious – while being zero-sugar."
Which Iced Capp and cold brew drinks were new?
The Caramel Churro lineup has an Iced Latte, a Cold Brew and an Iced Capp, each blended with or topped with churro cookie crumbs. The OREO DOUBLE STUF Iced Capp returned, made with OREO cookie crumble, vanilla syrup and vanilla-flavoured whipped topping.
What are Poppin' Frozen Quenchers?
Poppin' Frozen Quenchers, announced June 18, 2026, add popping candies blended through the drink and sprinkled on top. They come in five fruit flavours and are described as "refreshingly icy and creamy."
What matcha drinks did Tim Hortons add for summer?
On July 22, 2026, Tim Hortons added five matcha drinks: Vanilla Iced Matcha Latte with Cold Foam, Original Iced Matcha Latte, Unsweetened Iced Matcha Latte, Hot Vanilla Matcha Latte and Hot Matcha Latte. They use 100% pure matcha made from shade-grown tea leaves. Strawberry Matcha joined on September 23.
Which Tim Hortons summer drinks usually come back?
The OREO DOUBLE STUF Iced Capp has appeared in the 2023, 2025 and 2026 lineups, which makes it the most reliable returner we found. Fruit Quenchers also recur: Peach and Strawberry Watermelon appear in 2023 coverage, and Orange Tangerine, Blackberry Yuzu, Peach and Strawberry Watermelon appear in 2025 and 2026 flavour lists.
| Drink | 2023 | 2025 | 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|
| OREO DOUBLE STUF Iced Capp | New | Returning | Returning |
| Peach Quencher | Yes | Yes | Yes (Protein Quencher) |
| Strawberry Watermelon Quencher | Yes | Yes | Yes (Protein Quencher) |
| Orange Tangerine Quencher | Not listed | Yes | Yes (Protein Quencher) |
| Blackberry Yuzu Quencher | Not listed | Yes | Yes (Protein Quencher) |
| New cold brew flavour | Caramel Toffee | Toasted Marshmallow | Caramel Churro |
A new cold brew flavour appeared in each of the three years. Toasted Marshmallow Cold Brew is steeped for 16 hours, according to Tim Hortons' 2025 coverage, and is not in the 2026 release.
What summer drink deals has Tim Hortons run?
In 2026, the June 18 summer menu came with two deals at participating Canadian restaurants: two medium original Iced Capps for $6 on Mondays, and a daily happy hour from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. with a medium Iced Latte or flavoured Cold Brew for $3. Both were limited time, so confirm in the Tims App whether they return in 2027.
Which summer drinks are zero-sugar or high-protein?
The Raspberry Mojito Zero Sugar Sparkling Quencher is the zero-sugar option. The Protein Quenchers are the high-protein option, with 14 grams of protein per medium. Tim Hortons does not publish sugar or protein figures for every cold drink in its releases, so check Tim Hortons' nutrition information for a specific drink. For other cold drinks, see our best Tim Hortons drinks and coffee menu.
What should you expect from Tim Hortons summer drinks in 2027?
Expect an early-April launch, a collaboration-style Iced Capp, a new cold brew flavour and refreshed Quencher flavours. This is a pattern from the past three lineups we checked, not an announcement. In each of 2023, 2025 and 2026, Tim Hortons introduced at least one new cold brew flavour and kept OREO in the Iced Capp lineup. We will update this page when Tim Hortons confirms the 2027 menu.
