Bangkok, Thailand, June 6, 2026 / TRAVELINDEX / As Thailand's specialty coffee scene and café culture continue to flourish, MILKLAB, Australia's leading barista-made plant-based milk brand, is redefining the coffee experience through a unique Thai cultural lens.

As part of an exclusive lifestyle promotion, MILKLAB invited media professionals and content creators to experience Bangkok's evolving café culture aboard a floating coffee journey through the enchanting canals of the Khlong Lat Mayom Floating Market in Thonburi.

Located on the outskirts of Bangkok, the Khlong Lat Mayom floating market impresses with its authentic local charm and vibrant community spirit, offering visitors an authentic insight into Thailand's traditional riverside lifestyle.

Thailand's floating markets have long reflected the country's historical way of life, where canals were once the heart of transport, trade, and community life. Wooden boats drifting on the waterways, local delicacies, and the relaxed rhythm of life along the canal banks continue to fascinate international visitors and locals alike.

Against the backdrop of riverside communities and traditional canal life, two barista-created specialty coffees – Honey Oat Lychee and Coconut Pistachio Latte – are served in a unique blend of tradition, lifestyle, and modern café culture. The blend, created by MILKLAB's Mikael Jasin, the 2024 World Barista Champion and global brand ambassador for MILKLAB, unites tradition, lifestyle, and modern café culture.

Thailand remains one of MILKLAB's key strategic markets, particularly Bangkok – a city renowned for its dynamic blend of culture, creativity, and vibrant café scene. Fueled by the rapid growth of specialty coffee, plant-based beverages, and a health-conscious lifestyle among younger consumers, the brand continues to invest in experiences that authentically connect with modern café culture while reinforcing its ambition to become Thailand's leading premium plant-based milk brand.

True to the philosophy "Made with baristas. Made for you.", MILKLAB was developed specifically for baristas to enhance the taste and texture of coffee and modern beverages. Known for its creamy mouthfeel and excellent frothing performance, the brand is highly regarded by baristas and specialty coffee shops in over 20 countries worldwide. The premium range includes almond, oat, soy, macadamia, and coconut milks – all designed to complement and enrich modern coffee experiences.

MILKLAB is convinced that consumers today are looking for far more than just a cup of coffee, Thai tea, or matcha. They want places to live – places to work, relax, connect, experience community, and enjoy culture. The floating coffee experience embodies this vision: cafés are no longer just places to consume drinks, but cultural meeting points that bring people together and shape the identity of the modern urban lifestyle.

As the café culture in Thailand continues to evolve, MILKLAB aims to become part of the country's broader coffee movement – ​​not only by building brand awareness, but also by creating meaningful experiences, fostering communities and supporting barista networks that connect people through coffee culture.

MILKLAB products are available in Thailand through the official LINE accounts of Aroma Shop and Coffee 2U, the Coffee 2U app, Gourmet Market and Villa Market.
