“The coffee options inflight at Southwest Airlines just got even cooler with Community Coffee’s Espresso + Cream iced coffee available on board for Customers to purchase for $4.

SWA Press Release
Community Coffee is the largest family-owned coffee business in the United States and their Espresso+Cream is well regarded by many. Base in Lousiana, Community Coffee has been operating since 1919 and has seen over four generations of coffee roasters over its storied history.
Previously, Southwest Airlines passengers in search of an iced coffee would have to make the concoction on their own by asking for a cup of ice with their hot coffee. Now, coffee purists will have access to a true iced coffee blend for a relatively reasonable price.
