Serenitea celebrates their 15th year anniversary by launching their 2023 Maligayang Festivi-teas Holiday Drinks, in partnership with Pan De Manila, as well as announcing their eagerly-awaited Jumbo Cup promo dates and mechanics.
PASKONG PINOY
This year, Serenitea, a proudly home-grown Filipino tea-shop brand, honors its roots with a nationalistic and nostalgic take on its limited-edition holiday flavors, created in partnership with another all-Filipino brand, Pan De Manila.
During the successful event held last November 9th at Lola Café in Ortigas, Serenitea invited honored guests, comprising of media and influencers to indulge in Pinoy holiday cheer. Within the venue, aptly bedecked in red, green and gold, guests mingled, took photos, enjoyed games and contests, won raffle prizes, and most notably, were privileged to be the first to taste the Serenitea and Pan De Manila holiday collaborations.
SERENITEA x PAN DE MANILA
Taking Filipino ingredients and flavors used in the Pan De Manila bakery and reimagining them into holiday tea drinks, Serenitea created the Maligayang Festivi-teas holiday drinks with two well-loved Filipino flavors in mind: Yema and Ube.
YEMA MAIS CON YELO (P180, large)
Not your typical mais con yelo nor your typical tea drink, as this Christmas drink mixes green tea with sweet corn, syrup, and ice. The Pan De Manila touch is the topping of yema and the cheese shavings. A sweet-umami refreshing treat!
UBE PANDAN GREEN TEA (P188, large)
What do you get when you blend Filipino favorite ube-halaya with green tea, pandan and coconut strips? It’s a healthier buko pandan in drink form, thanks to healthy green tea, but without compromising rich and creamy flavors thanks to the addition of ube halaya. Ube-rrific!
Starting November 15, the limited-edition drink series will be available in all Serenitea branches nationwide and through the third-party delivery apps (Grab, Food Panda).
JUMBO CUP PROMO
Another key part of the event was the announcement of the dates and the mechanics of the most awaited and viral Serenitea promotion—the Jumbo Cup Promo.
Just in case, you’ve never joined in on the fun, here’s how it goes. During certain days in the middle of December, which is Serenitea’s anniversary month, any purchase of a large drink from a participating drink list is automatically upsized to a Jumbo size (1 liter) drink for FREE.
