As the Philippines kicks off the holiday season—known for being one of the longest and most festive in the world—Bo’s Coffee welcomes the spirit of Paskong Pinoy with a heartwarming 2024 menu that celebrates Filipino flavors. This homegrown coffee brand is pulling out all the stops with an exciting lineup of holiday-inspired coffee and treats that’s sure to make you feel right at home.
A Filipino Twist on Holiday Favorites
In keeping with its tradition, Bo’s Coffee is rolling out a special holiday menu that captures the essence of Filipino Christmas. At the center of this seasonal lineup is the fan-favorite Dark Mocha Macadamia Froccino, alongside a new Choc Nut Series. Made in collaboration with the iconic Filipino confectionery brand, this series includes the Choc Nut Mocha Froccino, Iced Choc Nut Latte, and Hot Choc Nut Latte—bringing the rich, nutty flavor Filipinos love to every sip.
But it’s not just about the drinks. Bo’s seasonal menu also features Filipino-inspired desserts, each a unique twist on classic holiday favorites. The Puto Bumbong Cheesecake and Halo-Halo Cake join the already beloved Bibingka Cheesecake to create a mouth-watering trio of treats. And for those who want a traditional snack, the Mini Bibingkas are back, perfectly paired with a warm cup of Bo’s world-class coffee, sourced locally from Filipino farmers across the nation.
Keeping Tradition Alive with Filipino Ingredients
“We wanted to highlight the flavors we all look forward to during the holiday season,” shares Rachel Fallarme, Bo’s Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. “Paskong Pinoy is an annual tradition for us, and this year is no different because there’s truly no Christmas like a Filipino Christmas. The warmth, joy, and togetherness we celebrate with friends and family is unmatched anywhere in the world. Our cakes and drinks are meant to bring comfort and happiness as part of this cherished tradition.”
Bo’s commitment to Filipino ingredients and flavors is central to the Paskong Pinoy menu. The coffee beans used in each of their drinks are sourced from local farmers across the Philippines, including regions like Sagada, Benguet, Bukidnon, and Davao.
A Festive Celebration in Cebu and Manila
To mark the launch of the Paskong Pinoy menu, Bo’s hosted two Salo-Salo events: one at its Capitol Tribute Store in Cebu, the city where Bo’s was founded in 1996, and another at its flagship store in Glorietta 5, Manila. Both events brought together media and guests for a warm celebration of Filipino flavors and traditions. The first event took place at their Capitol Tribute Store in Cebu—where Bo’s was founded in 1996 by proud Cebuano, CEO Steve Benitez. The intimate occasion allowed guests, including Benitez and Fallarme, to welcome the holiday season in Bo’s hometown.
A second Salo-Salo celebration followed at Bo’s Coffee Glorietta 5, the brand’s flagship store in Manila, on November 6, 2024. This media-exclusive gathering offered a chance for guests to experience the Paskong Pinoy menu firsthand, kicking off the season in the heart of the city.
Supporting Filipino Farmers, One Cup at a Time
At the heart of Bo’s Coffee is a commitment to uplifting Philippine coffee. The brand sources its beans from local farmers across regions such as Sagada, Benguet, Bukidnon, and Davao, ensuring each cup of Bo’s coffee carries a distinct flavor profile from the Philippines’ rich coffee-growing regions.
Bo’s Coffee has also expanded its offerings to include a variety of meals that complement their coffee, from pastas to sandwiches and cakes. Fallarme also highlights the brand’s commitment to providing accessible quality coffee through its growing digital presence. Bo’s products are now available through various online platforms and delivery services, so coffee lovers can enjoy their favorite blends from the comfort of home.
What’s Next for Bo’s Coffee?
Bo’s Coffee isn’t just growing locally; it’s making waves globally. With over 150 branches worldwide—including 136 in the Philippines and 20 in the Middle East—Bo’s is steadily expanding its footprint. Fallarme reveals that the brand is set to open its first branch in the Greater Toronto Area, Canada, in 2025, bringing Filipino coffee to a new international market.
Franchising has also played a pivotal role in Bo’s expansion, especially in high-demand areas like Metro Manila, Central Visayas, and Southern Luzon. This strategic growth aims to make Bo’s Coffee more accessible to Filipinos and to foster a sense of community in every location.
