Summer Holiday at Excelso Coffee

 

Since 1991, under Kapal Api Global, PT EXCELSO Multi Rasa or known as Excelso became a global product and grow so fast. We can find in over 101 Excelso Outlet around 29 big cities in Indonesia. They sell coffee seed to hotel, restaurants and cafe.

On last Saturday, an invitation drop  in my email. Excelso is about to launch Summer Holiday Beverages. I already imagine, that must be a very tempting and freshening drinks.

 

This event place in Excelso Kota Kasablanka. The place really nice and cozy. Separated into 2 areas. Indoor and Outdoor. If you are a smoker, just come inside where you can smoke, while outside are for those who not smoking. Both area have a good sitting place. With wood element in every interior, Excelso look so earthy. Big mirror make this cafe more spacious and wide.

I love how they manage their products. Whether the coffee products or the tumblers. They organize it it a big wooden shelves. They really consistent in placing every furniture or other stuff. Look at the lamp and sofa. Everything related to coffee. And it's cute and cool.

Event start with a short and nice speech from Monivia P. as PR and Media Relation. Then continue with Hanny A. Elvind as MarComm Manager. She explained about Excelso and it's products. And who knows that Excelso is real from Indonesia. Not like some coffee shop lately, that franchise from other country. Wow.. make me love Indonesia more. And for these years, Excelso has proven that Indonesia's coffee can beat non-local coffee.

After we seated, they offered us some Summer Drinks from Excelso. Make me curious, since they wont tell us what in it. They just said, they will reveal the ingredients later, and let us guess what in it. Ms Hanny said, This Holiday menu are taken from the existing regular menu. Beside those are recommended drinks from Excelso, the freshness from it taste really represented the Summer Holiday theme.

Now imagine id all those ingredients mixed together.

This Lovely Maui Fruit Punch to Brighten Up Your Day

A very fruity drink. Consist of blended banana, some of fruits like pineapple, cherry and lychee mixed with pineapple juice, orange juice and strawberry syrup at the bottom to add more richness in flavor. I take a sip from this drink to really taste each flavor. From a sip, suddenly I already drink it to half glass and never stop to dig the fresh fruit in it. A very big and gorgeous lychee, became more pretty and pinkish splash by the strawberry syrup. The sweet taste not too overpower, because pineapple succeed balance all those ingredients.

My inspiration to decorate this drink is from the drink itself. Maui Fruit Punch, I picture it with fresh and pretty. So, I remember the gorgeous Hula-Hula dancer from Hawaii. That's why I spread flowers and crystal all around the drink. We don't allowed, and I don't want to change it also, the original appearance from Maui Fruit Punch. Well... at the end thanks so bad for my SkinnyMini besties to lend me your props *TeletubbiesHugs
