Summer drinks Dubai: Fr, these are drinks are gonna be our our sip and repeat list all summer long
We can't escape the scorching Dubai heat, but we can and will stay hydrated this summer. From Dalgonas to whipped honey lattes, we've had our fair share of refreshment obsessions over the years.
Summer 2025 called and she just dropped her trending beverages. From strawberry cold foam matchas, to the tiramisu latte, we've rounded up the most aesthetic (and tasty) sips in Dubai.
Matcha Latte with Salted Vanilla foam from Knot Bakehouse
Knot Bakehouse has undoubtedly cracked the chic-girl code. Minimalist and modern, their aesthetic just *gets it.* Iykyk! We go to the cafe for the vibes, so a chic interior serves our Instagram what it needs. The matcha latte with salted vanilla cold foam is a dreamy upgrade from regular matcha. Take our tip: sub the vanilla cold foam for strawberry. Thank us later!
What: Matcha Latte with salted vanilla (or strawberry) foam
Where: Knot Bakehouse, 403 Jumeirah St, Al Athar Street, Jumeirah, Dubai
Iced Tiramisu at Cafe Bateel
Stop playing. We all know that Tiramisu is the ultimate girl dessert. Is it the soft cookies moistened in espresso? Or the rich layer of cream with cocoa powder? It's not too heavy, nor too sweet. One bite transports you to Positano, Italy. Releasing the romantic vacation sitting at the heart of every girl. Crafted with Italian espresso, fresh cream, and served with a savoiardi biscuit, this latte is what dreams are made of. Warning- you may get addicted!
What: Iced Tiramisu
Where: Cafe Bateel, Nakheel Mall, Palm Jumeirah, 1st floor, Dubai
Pink Matcha Latte from Java Dubai
Java Dubai also gets the girlies and is serving the aesthetic! For the Pink Matcha Latte, think matcha latte with strawberry cold foam except in reverse. Pink strawberry milk with matcha cold foam. Not only will Java Dubai keep you crisp and refreshed, it's giving variations on a theme so you can nail down your summer 2025 cooler aesthetic.
What: Pink Matcha Late
Where: Java Dubai, MAS Business Lounge, Garhoud Ares, Dubai
Strawberry and Cream Latte from Kava and Chai
Remember when the strawberries and cream frappuccino went viral at Starbucks? It is a pink dream, giving soft girl vibes. Except, this time there's a twist. Picture this- it's an iced strawberry creme refresher, except with espresso. Adding a shot of espresso to your pink dreams is the vibe we're trying on; a touch of caffeine added to a soft girl moment.
What: Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino
Where: Kava and Chai, Mall of the Emirates, Ground Floor, beside Carrefour Market, Dubai
Iced Chocolate Matcha Pistachio Latte from Starbucks
This latte sounds overcomplicated, but we'll break it down for you. Based on the Dubai Viral Chocolate, it is made with matcha and pistachio syrup, and topped with chocolate cold foam. You may have had enough of the viral Dubai chocolate, and we understand that. But this is worth trying one more time.
What: Iced Chocolate Matcha Pistachio Latte.
Where: Starbucks, Marina Promenade, Dubai Marina Mall, Dubai Marina, Dubai.

Zegna's first show outside Italy is a love letter to Dubai
Zegna, the Italian master of quiet luxury, just staged its first fashion show outside Italy. On Wednesday, it transformed Dubai Opera into an oasis of fashion, with nods to both Italy and the UAE. Guests were greeted by birdsong recorded in Oasi Zegna, the land planted as a forest by the founder, as they took in the set of sand dunes, native ghaf and palm trees, and a sand-strewn floor. Across 54 looks, the spring/summer 2026 show delivered a masterclass in the impeccable, laid-back dressing Zegna is known for, formed from elegant cuts and astonishing materials. About 600 guests, many of whom were flown in for the event, witnessed the unfolding of a typically discreet palette that shifted from cream and bone, through olive and fern green to autumnal dark red and mulberry, played out across quietly remarkable pieces. The art of understatement As with everything Zegna does, this was about layered nuance. Unlined jackets were casually worn over collared shirts of perforated suede, laser-cut in dogtooth patterning; tabard tops were spun from linen and paper; and cotton ticking became summery suit jackets and matching shorts. Crumpled linen was cut into boxy jackets, and woven into airy polo tops, while loose shirt jackets and even scarves arrived in Zegna's new 'washable leather'. In a nod to the host city, 25 of these runway looks were made especially for the Dubai show. The subtle brilliance of Zegna is best seen up close, when the true beauty of its pieces becomes apparent. Knitted suede tops, roomy crocheted tops that hang just-so, jacquard jackets that resemble tweed, and actual tweed spun into a light summer coat – this is a house that has mastered the art of understatement. The show featured a diverse cast of models – from teenage to septuagenarians – some barefoot, all restrained and elegant. Although predominantly featuring male models, there were a few women on the runway, clad in the same menswear as a sign of its wearability. As owners of its own factories (to oversee a process it calls 'sheep to shop'), Zegna can push boundaries of what is materially possible. As creative director Alessandro Sartori explained ahead of the show: 'Through this experimentation, we are finding a lot of new ideas.' In turn, these become new propositions for today's client. 'There is a huge space between classic and avant-garde menswear that we can explore,' Sartori said. The looks paraded in the opera house suggests this is not a middle ground, but instead a new frontier; making daily uniforms for the ultra-refined, using hyper-modern materials and devoid of logos, for a if-you-know-you-know cache. Stepping into Villa Zegna Zegna's polished ethos extends well beyond the runway, too. Part of the opera house has been converted into Villa Zegna, a private invitation-only club open for five days. Named after the original family house in Northern Italy, Villa Zegna allows clients to sample the new limited-edition Il Conte fragrance (created as a run of just 300 and housed in Murano glass bottles), and gain exclusive access to the Dubai capsule collection. Separate from the fashion show pieces, these additional 70 or so items cater to the lives of the ultra-rich – think croc skin jackets tumbled to the suppleness of suede, and hoodies in creamy cashmere. In a moment of Narnia-like charm, this arena can only be reached by passing through a rail of suits, which represents the wardrobe of founder Ermenegildo Zegna. Elsewhere, to ensure its guests glean the most from their visit, Zegna enlisted Dubai Tourism to guide them around the city Zegna describes as being a 'celebration of vision'. Such is the level of precision at Zegna, that every detail – from triple-stitched moccasins to leather-covered buttons – is catered to. Accordingly, choosing Dubai for its first venture beyond its homeland does not feel coincidental. Carefully considered, the city has been selected for the values it shares with the storied Italian house. As one reaches for the sky, the other deals in the height of quality and sophistication. Both are fascinated by the intersection of the innovative and the remarkable. And if this evening were anything to go by, it is a quest without end.
