Coffee and milk tea are basically part of everyday life in the Philippines. They are the small, reliable things that keep you moving through traffic, deadlines, and whatever new plot twist the government serves this week. Cafés have become our default meeting spots, mini workspaces, and quick escapes when the day feels too loud. To make those coffee and milk tea runs even more rewarding, here are a few fun finds that let the obsession live beyond the cup.

1. Chagee Hello Kitty Holiday Collection

Chagee partnered with Sanrio for a limited Philippine release featuring Tanned Hello Kitty, created to match the brand’s cozy holiday vibe. The collaboration launched alongside Chagee’s Cocoa Oolong Milk Tea, served in festive cups and bundled with exclusive merch such as plush charms, sling bags, hair clips, and mini accessories. Some branches even offered pop-up style experiences where customers could collect stamps and redeem special items, turning a simple milk tea run into a full café moment. It’s cute, collectible, and very much designed for fans who enjoy when drinks and merch come as a set.

2. Plain Sight Coffee Off The Bench Socks

These Off The Bench socks are part of Plain Sight Coffee’s collaboration with artist and designer Jethro Olba, known for his playful visuals inspired by everyday street culture. The design feels casual and wearable, making it easy to work into your daily rotation rather than saving it for special occasions. It is the kind of coffee merch that fits naturally into real life, whether you are café hopping or working through a long day. A small detail, but one that coffee lovers tend to appreciate.

3. Angkan x Rags2Riches Collaboration

Angkan’s collaboration with Rags2Riches (R2R) brings together specialty coffee and Filipino craftsmanship in a meaningful way. The limited Heritage collection features lifestyle pieces made by local artisans using upcycled and ethically sourced materials. Each item reflects thoughtful design while supporting community-based production and sustainable practices. It is café merch that feels intentional, purposeful, and rooted in local culture rather than just branded for display.

4. TFS x Anabeza Denim Tote Bag

The Fat Seed teamed up with Anabeza to create a denim tote that fits seamlessly into coffee-centered routines. It is sturdy enough for daily errands and roomy enough for laptops, books, or takeaway drinks that never seem to travel alone. The clean denim look keeps it versatile, while the collaboration adds just enough character to make it feel special. It is the kind of bag that quietly becomes your everyday go-to.

5. Chagee Pet Merch

Chagee’s pet merch is perfect for people who love their furry friends just as much as their milk tea or coffee. These items blend café branding with pet-friendly charm, making them fun to keep at home, on your desk, or clipped to your bag. They also make easy gifts for fellow drink lovers who never stop talking about their pets. It is a lighthearted way to celebrate two things that reliably make the day better.

Coffee and milk tea are small comforts that help the day go down easier. These finds turn everyday drink runs into something a little more fun and a lot more personal. If your routine already revolves around your favorite café, these pieces fit right in.
