WOULD YOU TRY COFFEE WITH TONIC? 3 UNEXPECTED DRINKS TO TRY AT COFFEE PLANET

Would You Try Coffee with Tonic? 3 Unexpected Drinks to Try at Coffee Planet

From espresso and sparkling tonic to strawberry açaí and coconut lemon, Coffee Planet is putting a very different spin on your usual coffee order.

Think you’ve tried every possible variation of iced coffee? There’s one combination that might still surprise you: coffee and tonic.

The pairing might sound unusual, but the espresso tonic has been part of specialty coffee culture for years, combining a shot of espresso with crisp, sparkling tonic for a drink that’s bitter, refreshing and completely different from a traditional milk-based coffee.

Now, homegrown UAE brand Coffee Planet is taking the idea a step further with a trio of tonic drinks that play with coffee, fruit, citrus and tropical flavours.

Coffee Planet's Tonic Trio: Strawberry Açaí, Coconut Lemon and Espresso Tonic

Meet the Tonic Trio

Strawberry Açaí Tonic

Fruity

Fruity, bright and bubbly, it combines strawberry and açaí with a crisp tonic finish — a refreshing option for anyone who wants something a little different from their usual coffee order.

Coconut Lemon Tonic

Tropical

Creamy coconut meets zesty lemon and sparkling tonic in a tropical-meets-citrus combination, giving the drink a completely different profile from a traditional iced coffee.

Espresso Tonic

Coffee-forward

The most unexpected pairing of the three. Bold espresso meets sparkling tonic, creating a crisp, bubbly drink that swaps the milk for fizz.

What makes the trio worth trying is the way each drink approaches the tonic format differently — fruity, tropical or coffee-forward — giving adventurous café-goers three ways to step outside their usual order. The Tonic Trio is available for a limited time at Coffee Planet’s UAE cafés, with prices starting from AED 26.
