FOLLOWING the successful introduction of the group’s signature Earl grape iced tea, Marco Polo Shenzhen will launch a new beverage for guests — the “Silk Road” iced coffee. It will be available at Café Marco and Connect (Lobby Lounge), together with the group’s other 12 Marco Polo Hotels in China and the Philippines as part of a series of signature beverages to reflect the brand’s ethos, the spirit of discovery and travel.

Created from infused coffee flavored with cinnamon syrup and milk, the iced coffee consists of a blended frappuccino poured into a swirled, chocolate-glazed glass symbolizing the roads well-traveled on the Silk Road. The iced beverage will be presented with a fresh cookie smothering marshmallows and chocolate between Graham crackers, warmed to perfection, inviting guests to explore the history of the Silk Road.(Tang Li)
