This summer Costa Coffee launched their latest innovation; Shaken Iced Coffee, a trend gaining momentum in London, the birthplace of Costa, and one that is set to take the world by storm. On the 24th of July, Costa teamed up with the President of the Bartender's Guild, Rodney Pisani at an event held at Costa Coffee at the Embassy Shopping Complex, to help show why ice and coffee are the perfect combination. He explained the similarities that exist between shaking iced coffee and shaking cocktails, demonstrating how it enhances the coffee's rich, smooth flavour while adding a new dimension to the drinking experience.

When asked for his opinion Rodney said, "These iced coffees are some of the best I've ever tasted...the recipes and methods work really well to ensure consistency of taste and texture."

Just like the range of hot coffees, these shaken coffees are made using Costa's unique Mocha Italia blend of slow-roasted beans, giving people the option of enjoying their usual daily coffee fix shaken ice cold, the perfect refreshment for a hot summer's day.

Rachelle Tabone, Marketing Manager of Costa Coffee said, "They are the best for fuelling and cooling the walk to work or simply relaxing".

Shaken iced coffees are available at all Costa Coffee outlets now in five locations around the island including Malta International Airport, The Point; Sliema, The Embassy; Valletta, Bay Street & Balzan.
