If there is any good that has come out of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is the rise of creative expression through various art forms all across the world. Most of us have now improved our skills in photography, videography, art, music, cooking, baking, brewing coffee, fermenting kombucha, or more!
MONIN wants to take this opportunity to empower professionals and consumers to create creative and unique beverage recipes in the comforts of your home through their #HomeMix Creativity Contest. If you’ve been making your own drinks at home in the past 2 years, this is your chance to shine and bring home cash prizes and goodies worth up to RM2,500!
If you’re not 100% confident with your mixing skills yet, fret not, MONIN will be providing a Masterclass for their final 16 participants where you’ll learn how to mix and create your own unique recipes with demonstrations by the experts! All you need to do is apply to be a participant here.
