Summer Coolers in Blugre!

The heat is on! You can really feel it... That is why most people will find something arctic to their quenching bodies.

Blugre Coffee, one of the coffee shops in the city, offers not only variety of coffee but of variety of thirst quenchers as well. For this summer heat, they are introducing their newest summer coolers with some Davao bloggers to taste it first. :) Aside from their summer coolers, they also offer us their newest torte, the halo-halo torte. :) Therefore, our palates will taste their Halo-halo Torte, Blugre Raspberry Blast and Blugre Passionfruit Blast. Here's the review... 

Left to Right: Halo-halo Torte, Blugre Raspberry Blast and Blugre Passionfruit Blast

First in line, the Blugre Raspberry Blast. Raspberries, strawberries and blackberries are of the same family under Rosaceae. Tasting this cooler is somewhat similar with the most known taste of a strawberry. Well, they are of the same family so it's not that surprising, but they differ in color that creates the curiosity. ;) They put in raspberry puree for this cooler with a secret ingredient (that they don't disclose even secretly, LOL). As a whole, its serving appearance, creaminess and raspberrific taste is perfect! Kids will surely love this one and kids-alike too! LOL

Next in line is the Blugre Passionfruit Blast. Hearing the name of this cooler makes me so excited to taste it. Yes, I am feeling that this one is an exotic cooler because my palate is not so familiar with its taste. :) Passion fruit is a fruit that when you open, it has a lot of seeds with the fruit meat surrounding the seeds. It is grown here in the country but not with so much production yet. With its taste, I compare it with the more familiar fruit like the guyabano. However, I come to realize of a closer characteristic and taste with it is the star apple. :) Well, it's a must-try friends. :) Its serving appearance, compliment of cream and passion fruit taste, and passion fruit-flavored jelly, all blended well and ready to be served. :)

Finally, who says that halo-halo is only served on ice? Well, Blugre has its very unique Halo-halo Torte. Typically, halo-halo is served with ice that waters to your mouth and relieves the summer heat. Yet and yet, this halo-halo torte is such an innovation. Yes, this torte has the components of a usual halo-halo; it has ube, beans, leche flan, jack fruit, flakes and ice cream. :) You will be amazed of its layering that has come to perfection. This torte is sweet but the cream together with the vanilla ice cream neutralizes its sweetness that will surely allow your tummy to have more of it. :) This serving is worth 145 pesos and its a good value for money. :)

Halo-halo Torte

That's it! This gastronomic servings are really really good. The Halo-halo Torte has just presented itself last month with a positive response from the people. While the Blugre summer coolers will make its mark from April to mid-June this year and these are available in all the 10 Blugre Coffee branches. :)

I would like to thank the co-owner of Blugre Coffee, Sir Benjamin Cuaresma, together with his wife, Ma'am Gloria (who innovated the halo-halo torte), and the marketing in-charge, Miss Angeli Alcuizar, for welcoming us to their store with so much delight. See you soon Blugre in Singapore and Bahrain... :)
