What new products have you been noticing in the marketplace?  Here’s a promotion of the latest trends promising of better health and more energy coming in closer proximity to Colombo these days.  Now it’s all about health in a glass. 

MLH will have till 13 March at the Governor’s Terrace from 9am, a range of beverages that claim to improve immunity, digestion and heart health.  The food and beverage trend at MLH has sprouted a new word that is increasingly found in many of MLH’s promotions:  purity.  The word is intended to conjure up images of real, less processed, natural and “clean” products.

The increased interest in health and wellness has not diminished the demand for indulgences, and products that can combine the two trends have proven particularly successful in the latest promotion at MLH. Buffalo curd has a higher nutritional value of protein, fat, lactose, minerals and vitamins. It should have 7.5% of milk fat, 8.5% of milk solids and 4.5% of Milk acid

The health benefits of coriander include treatment of swellings, high cholesterol levels, diarrhea, mouth ulcers, anemia, digestion, menstrual disorders, eye care, conjunctivitis, skin disorders and blood sugar disorders.

Green chilies contain high amounts of vitamin C and carotene (pro-vitamin A) while peppers are a good source of most B vitamins, and vitamin B6 in particular. They are very high in potassium, magnesium, and iron. Their high vitamin C content can also substantially increase the uptake of iron from other ingredients in a meal, such as beans and grain; hence we have created Curd Coriander and Green Chili Drink: the refreshing taste of with benefits has made it inarguably delicious.

Every variety is naturally sweetened no sugar but honey is used if necessary. Finally, every flavour you see is flavored naturally – flavours that come straight from the source, like carrot make the summery flavour of our peach tea.

So there it is: natural green tea goodness, ready for you to grab-and-go. Enjoy our green tea drinks like Green Tea, Ginger and Lemongrass. Green tea contains salubrious polyphenols, particularly catechins, the most abundant of which is epigallocatechin gallate, carotenoids, tocopherols, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), minerals such as chromium, manganese, selenium or zinc and certain phytochemical compounds. It is also an antioxidant. Green tea reduces systolic and diastolic blood pressure, fasting total cholesterol, body fat and body weight. Reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, dental cavities, kidney stones, and cancer.

Ginger is a digestive aid that helps relieve indigestion, gas pains, diarrhea and stomach cramping. Ginger’s anti-inflammatory properties help relieve pain and reduce inflammation associated with arthritis, rheumatism and muscle spasms. Ginger’s therapeutic properties effectively stimulate circulation of the blood, removing toxins from the body, cleansing the bowels and kidneys, and nourishing the skin. It is also treatment for asthma.

Other pure artisan beverages in the list are: Green Orange, Egg and Honey, Tomato and Cucumber Juice, Carrot and Pineapple Juice, Fresh Cocoa, Lime and Honey, Chocolate, Fresh Milk and Wood Apple, Beli Juice and Tea- just to name a few.

As a guest or a visitor to the hotel you can be assured that the quality of our products is second to none, and the taste experience will reflect that every time. “We really went to great lengths to make sure that this is as natural and as delicious as it can be,” Anura Dewapura, General Manager, Mount Lavinia Hotel stated. The end result is delicious, luxurious confections that, like fine wines, are to be appreciated for their unique flavours, mouth-feel of pure fusion perfectly blended with organic raw natural ingredients. Enjoy them hot or cold. All we ask is that you enjoy!
