We made Dereck try every alternative milk option so you don’t have to 😂🥛

Introducing our NEW Iced Hokey Pokey Latte! A little sweet, a little nostalgic and the perfect excuse for another coffee.

But the big question is… which milk makes it taste the best? 👀

🥥 Coconut: For those who like a little extra sweetness.

🌰 Almond: A delicious nutty twist.

🌾 Oat: The reliable crowd favourite.
You can’t go wrong!

🫘 Soy: A classic plant-based option.

And if alternative milk isn’t your thing, don’t worry! Good old-fashioned full cream and trim cow’s milk are always on the menu 🐄

A big thanks to our friends at The Alternative Dairy Co for helping us put Dereck’s taste buds to the test.

Come try our Iced Hokey Pokey Latte at Miko and let us know which milk gets your vote! 👇

School holidays might be over, but our Kids’ Lunch Boxes aren’t going anywhere! 🍓🌯

In fact, we’ve made it even easier to organise lunch for your next school trip, group outing or day exploring Auckland Botanic Gardens.

For $13 per lunch box, each little explorer gets:

🌯 A freshly made wrap
🍓 A fresh fruit pot
🍪 A homemade cookie
🧃 A juice or water
🍬 A little sweet treat!

Bringing the whole class? We’ve got a little something for the teachers too! For every 20 student lunch boxes ordered through a school, we’ll include a complimentary teacher’s lunch 🙌

We can also accommodate dietary requirements, including gluten-free, vegetarian and dairy-free options. Just let us know in advance!

Ordering is easy! Pre-order your lunch boxes through our website at www.mikocafe.nz so they’re ready for your visit.

Less time organising lunches, more time exploring the Gardens. Sounds like a win to us! ☀️

Think you could tell your oat from your soy in a blind taste test? 👀🥛

We put Dereck to the test to celebrate our full alternative milk range now available at Miko. Because your coffee order should taste just as good, however you take it. ☕️

Turns out identifying alternative milks is harder than it looks. 😂

Good thing you don’t have to choose just one. Our full alt-milk line-up is now available at Miko thanks so our mates over at The Alternative Dairy Co putting in the hard yards.

So… what are you choosing for your daily coffee fix? Oat, coconut, soy or almond? 👀
