ZUS Coffee’s “Panlasang Pinoy” Weaves Filipino Flavors Into Every Sip

4 minutes read

ZUS Coffee is celebrating the comforting taste of home with its latest limited-time promo: Panlasang Pinoy: Weaving Flavors of Home.

This new offering features three Filipino-inspired drinks—Buko Salad Espesyal, Champorado Latte, and Honey Kalamansi—each crafted to evoke nostalgic flavors in a modern café experience. Whether you’re looking for something indulgent, cozy, or refreshing, this lineup brings familiar Pinoy favorites into every sip.

Buko Salad Espesyal

Inspired by the well-loved Filipino dessert, the Buko Salad Espesyal (PHP 130) is a drinkable take on the holiday classic. This beverage is sweet, creamy, and coconut-forward—capturing the essence of buko salad in every sip. It’s more dessert than drink, making it a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth.

It’s rich, nostalgic, and tropical—but what really sets it apart is the texture. Yes, there are actual bits of buko salad inside, so every sip comes with that familiar, chewy surprise you’d expect from the real thing.

Champorado Latte

For something indulgent and cozy, the Champorado Latte (PHP 130) offers a comforting twist on the classic Filipino breakfast favorite. Served hot, it channels the familiar richness of champorado—thick, warm, and deeply comforting. There’s no actual espresso in this one, but it’s topped with pinipig to mimic the texture of rice, making it feel more like a local-style hot chocolate than a traditional latte.

It’s the kind of drink that’s perfect for cool mornings or rainy afternoons—and it pairs especially well with their baked goods. Our top pick? The butter croissant.

Honey Kalamansi

The Honey Kalamansi (PHP 120) is the most refreshing option in the lineup. Cold, tangy, slightly sweet, and reminiscent of iced tea—perfect for hot days when you need something light and citrusy to cool down. The honey balances out the sharpness of the kalamansi, giving it a smooth, clean finish.

You can also enjoy it hot, making it a go-to choice when you’re feeling under the weather. With its soothing warmth and natural vitamin C boost, it’s the kind of drink that feels like a comforting home remedy.

Culture You Can Sip (and Wear)

Crafted by Filipinos, for Filipinos, Panlasang Pinoy is more than just a drink menu. It’s a celebration of heritage—an invitation to rediscover what makes our flavors truly ours. Available in over 150 ZUS Coffee branches nationwide, these drinks are made to be enjoyed by the community they were inspired by.

How to Get the ZUS Coffee x Team Manila Merch

To bring this spirit beyond the cup, ZUS Coffee collaborated with iconic local brand Team Manila—known for designs that capture the essence of modern Filipino culture. The result? A limited-edition merch line featuring cultural prints reimagined into a tote bag and bucket hat you’ll actually want to wear. More than fashion—it’s culture you carry. A necessity, not a luxury.

Starting August 11, 2025, you can get the exclusive ZUS Coffee x Team Manila tote bag or bucket hat by simply adding PHP 550 to your order of a Champorado Latte, Buko Salad Espesyal, or Honey Kalamansi—only on the ZUS Coffee App (App Store/Google Play Store).
