This holiday season, The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf®—Southern California’s iconic coffee and tea retailer for more than 50 years—is partnering with advertising agency WONGDOODY to launch a new #SlurpCarols social media campaign featuring fans across the globe sipping from The Coffee Bean’s #PurpleStraw.
The first in a series of four videos launches today featuring coffee and tea lovers slurping to the holiday carol ‘Deck the Halls.’ From now until December 25, The Coffee Bean® guests can participate by posting a video on their own Instagram, Twitter, and/or Facebook pages tagging @TheCoffeeBean and using the hashtags#SlurpCarols and #PurpleStraw. New holiday jingle videos from The Coffee Bean® will be posted on December 15, 22, and a final MegaMix on December 25.
