As a kid, I remember seeing my dad down cups of milk-spiked coffee like it was water. The man needed his daily coffee fix to function but over the last few years, it seems that the lack of lactase persistence, a common trait in Asia apparently, finally caught up to my dad as he got older.
Back then, I used to think that if my dad didn’t have lactase persistence, then does that mean I couldn’t enjoy my milk-laced drinks when I get older too?! That sounded like a nightmare reality I didn’t want to live in, but luckily, local oat milk brand OATSIDE is here to the rescue!
OATSIDE knows that for lactose-intolerant coffee aficionados, the struggle is real when it comes to finding that perfect cup of creamy, dreamy joe that won’t send your stomach into a frenzy. But fear not! OATSIDE is here to cut your arduous quest for lactose-intolerant-friendly coffee short with 2 new additions to its OATSIDE Coffee range!
If you’re someone who leans towards the sweeter side when it comes to your daily brew, then OATSIDE’s two new coffee Pocket Packs, namely Caramel Macchiato and Mocha, might just be your thing! So allow me to introduce you to these two additions, as well as other exciting activations that are part of this launch which you can look forward to!
Caramel Macchiato
Say goodbye to boring brews and hello to a caramel-flavoured, caffeinated adventure! OATSIDE’s new Caramel Macchiato isn’t any cup of joe; it daringly blends creamy oats with strong molasses and smooth, buttery caramel notes that balance the coffee’s bitterness.
Perfect for when you want a kick to your drink or when you feel that you deserve a treat, OATSIDE Caramel Macchiato allows you to indulge in the luscious goodness of oats and caramel whilst still maintaining low sugar levels within the Nutrigrade B guidelines.
Mocha
Coffee on its own is good don’t get me wrong, but coffee and chocolate together? Now that’s a step up from your plain old coffee to a delicious dessert of a drink! OATSIDE’s Mocha is a cheeky combination of expertly roasted coffee beans and velvety smooth oats in a very rich, chocolate-forward body.
This irresistibly creamy concoction is the ultimate, luxurious mocha experience where deliciousness and satisfaction come together without any compromises! Like the Caramel Macchiato, Mocha is also low in sugar which means you can enjoy it without worrying too much about your health!
Where to get them?
Both Mocha and Caramel Macchiato, like the rest of OATSIDE’s Coffee range, are available in 200ml Pocket Packs, which makes for easy, on-the-go consumption so you can take your coffee break anytime, anywhere.
As for how you can get the coffee range, the full range will be available in all major retailers including NTUC FairPrice, Cold Storage, Sheng Siong, DON DON DONKI, Shopee, Redmart, and pandamart from 21 June 2024 at S$1.80 per Pocket Pack so get ready to get your hands on them soon!
Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee
We’re all well aware that coffee is the fuel to the best conversations, so OATSIDE has also created the card game Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee to take conversations to the next level!
Featuring 24 friendship-testing prompt cards, Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee pushes players to share their perspectives on a variety of topics. Whether it is an important debate on whether pets should be allowed at work, or a serious discussion on whether wearing slippers to Orchard is a fashion faux pas, the game will allow you to deepen your connections with your loved ones.
Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee is limited to 400 sets but the catch is that you can’t buy it! Rather, you have to try your luck winning it at the launch event held at Plaza Singapura from 21 to 23 June 2024 so here are all the details you need to know about the launch event!
To celebrate the release of Mocha and Caramel Macchiato, you can try these new flavours for yourself at a public sampling event at Plaza Singapura from 21 to 23 June 2024! Consumers can look forward to trying the three OATSIDE coffee flavours while chatting with popular TikTok and podcast duo, Ming Yue and Graeme from The Takeaway Table who will be discussing topics from the Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee card game.
On 22 June 2024 from 12pm to 4pm, popular Twitch streamer Denise Teo, better known by her Twitch handle @supercatkei, will make a special appearance! Local comedian Mark Kinoshita (@markaroons) will also be there on all three days from 4pm to 8pm to host and give away exclusive OATSIDE merchandise!
All of this is exciting but I know you’re dying to know how to snag a Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee set for yourself and here’s how! On 22 and 23 June 2024, take part in the Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee Challenge that will be held at 2.30pm and 4.30pm. In this challenge, you’ll face off with other participants and stand a chance to win a set of Hot Takes with OATSIDE Coffee playing cards, amongst other merchandise!
However, if you didn’t manage to win the playing cards, fret not as there are other merchandise you can get your hands on too. If you purchase any 6 OATSIDE Coffee Pocket Packs at Cold Storage Fresh’s Plaza Singapura outlet during the launch weekend, you can receive a limited edition OATSIDE reversible tote bag worth S$30.
