Coffee culture in Malaysia is nothing short of vibrant, and for many, it has become more than just a morning ritual – it is a lifestyle. Over the years, coffee chains have been offering Malaysians not only their daily caffeine fix but also unique, locally inspired drinks that bring a familiar taste of home into every sip. Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® Malaysia has long been one of those go-to names, trusted for its ability to blend international coffeehouse quality with flavours Malaysians hold close to their hearts.
This August, Coffee Bean is giving coffee lovers yet another reason to make a stop at their cafés. For a limited time, from 18 to 31 August 2025, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® Malaysia is running an exclusive promotion for their members: the new Pandan Gula Melaka drinks are available for only RM5 each. Yes, you read that correctly – RM5 for premium coffeehouse drinks, provided you are a MyCBTL member and redeem it through their app.
Now, if that isn’t a bargain worth talking about, then what is? Let’s take a closer look at why this deal is so exciting, what makes the drinks special, and why anyone who loves good value should not let this promotion slip away.
A Local Twist on Global Coffeehouse Culture
Coffee Bean has always been known for introducing flavours that speak to local cultures. While international chains often stick to familiar Western flavours, Coffee Bean has cleverly incorporated Malaysian tastes into their menu. This promotion celebrates one such innovation – the Pandan Gula Melaka Macchiato (hot or iced) and the Pandan Gula Melaka Ice Blended®.
These drinks are not your average cup of coffee. They are carefully crafted with bold espresso as the base, creamy coconut milk for richness, the fragrance of pandan leaves, and the caramel-like sweetness of gula melaka. To top it off, toasted coconut flakes add crunch, while the Ice Blended® version even comes with a generous drizzle of gula melaka for that extra indulgence.
For Malaysians, pandan and gula melaka are flavours that bring comfort and nostalgia. Whether in kuih, desserts, or now in coffee, they symbolise familiarity while still being adventurous enough for those who want something different from their regular latte or cappuccino.
The Value Behind the Deal
Let’s be honest – a typical handcrafted drink at a coffee chain usually costs between RM15 and RM20. When Coffee Bean puts out a deal that lets members enjoy these special beverages for RM5 each, it’s an opportunity that coffee enthusiasts should not overlook.
Here’s how the deal works:
-
You need to be a MyCBTL member (which is free to join).
-
Redeem the promotion through the MyCBTL app, where you will use 1,000 Bean Points to get a special RM5 voucher.
-
Each voucher can be used for one Pandan Gula Melaka Macchiato (hot/iced) or Pandan Gula Melaka Ice Blended®.
-
You can then enjoy the drink at participating outlets across Peninsular Malaysia.
That means you are essentially trading in your loyalty points for a handcrafted, locally inspired coffeehouse beverage at just a fraction of the usual cost. For regular Coffee Bean customers, this is an excellent way to maximise rewards. For new members, this is a fantastic reason to download the app, sign up, and start collecting points.
Why You Should Take Advantage of This
-
A Taste Worth Experiencing
If you love coffee but are tired of the usual selections, this is a refreshing way to try something new. The Pandan Gula Melaka drinks are rich, aromatic, and uniquely Malaysian – they stand out from standard menus. -
Unbeatable Price
RM5 for a handcrafted beverage is almost unheard of in coffee chains today. With rising costs of ingredients and café experiences, such offers are rare and worth making the most of while they last. -
Perfect for Both Regulars and First-Timers
Long-time Coffee Bean customers can enjoy a favourite treat for less, while first-timers can use this as an introduction to the brand’s creative drinks without spending too much. -
Rewarding Loyalty
This deal is not just about enjoying coffee at a low price – it’s also about seeing value in being part of a loyalty programme. Redeeming Bean Points for exclusive drinks makes customers feel like their loyalty is genuinely recognised. -
Limited-Time Excitement
Promotions like these do not come often. The limited two-week window creates urgency, giving customers every reason to stop by and make sure they do not miss out.
Things to Keep in Mind
Before rushing out to the nearest Coffee Bean, here are some important details to note:
-
The RM5 deal is exclusive to MyCBTL members.
-
Redemption requires 1,000 Bean Points per drink.
-
The offer applies only to Pandan Gula Melaka Macchiato (hot/iced) and the Pandan Gula Melaka Ice Blended®.
-
The promotion runs from 18 to 31 August 2025.
-
Outlets located in airports, factory outlets, and hospitals are excluded from this promotion.
It’s also worth noting that Coffee Bean reserves the right to amend or withdraw the deal at any time. Since products are available while stocks last, it is best to redeem and enjoy these drinks earlier during the promotional period to avoid disappointment.
Final Thoughts
This promotion is more than just a discount – it’s an experience. Coffee Bean has managed to combine the familiar comfort of pandan and gula melaka with the sophistication of espresso-based drinks, offering Malaysians a fusion of flavours that feels both homely and innovative. At just RM5 per drink, there is no excuse not to try it.
For coffee lovers, this is an affordable way to indulge. For casual café-goers, it’s an opportunity to enjoy a little luxury without straining the wallet. And for those who are curious about trying Coffee Bean’s local-inspired creations, this is the perfect entry point.
So, mark the dates – from 18 to 31 August 2025 – and redeem your voucher through the MyCBTL app. Whether you choose the warmth of a hot macchiato, the refreshing iced version, or the indulgent Ice Blended®, you are guaranteed a drink that celebrates the richness of local flavours in a global coffeehouse setting.
Don’t let this pass you by. With a promotion this good, it is only a matter of time before word spreads and the drinks run out. Head over to your nearest participating Coffee Bean café in Peninsular Malaysia and savour the Pandan Gula Melaka creations while the promotion lasts.
