The Secrets of Cebu’s best and original Lemonade

Who wouldn’t want a cup of lemonade?

It goes with every meal and every food. We have lemonade for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and lemonade on dates, during happy hours, and even on a late-night cup.

A lemonade drink has become a staple in our lives that we can’t even begin to imagine not having our go-to lemonade stands. But did you know that the original lemonade stand came to Cebu in 2015?

The Lemon Co. was brought to the Philippines by a couple from the United States who were big fans of lemonade stands there and seized the opportunity to set up the first-ever lemonade stand in Metro Ayala Supermarket in Cebu.

They served “Love and Happiness in a cup” and The Lemon Co.’s taste was embraced by the Cebuanos with open arms and even got recognized as “Sunstar Best of Cebu 2018- Best Lemonade” and has held that title for three consecutive years.

Since then, they have gone out to several Cebu malls and began branching out, and VisMin now has over 40 branches to cater to every lemonade lover.

Fresh Natural and Flavorful Lemonade

The thing that sets The Lemon Co. apart is that it gives you the full lemonade experience. Their refreshing drinks are 100% hand-pressed drinks from freshly squeezed lemons. They are all-natural without using powders and The Lemon Co.’s ingredients are sourced locally in support of Cebu’s farmers.

These freshly made lemonades come in various flavors as well to make them more exciting.

  • Old-Fashioned Lemonade
  • Mango Lemonade
  • Cucumber Lemonade
  • Lemongrass Lemonade
  • Ginger Lemonade
  • Strawberry Lemonade
  • Watermelon Lemonade
  • Yakult® Lemonade
  • Orange Lemonade

These flavors can be taken to the next level with some add-ons and substitutes like chia seeds, hot lemonade, honey, and stevia, and can even have your choice of sweetness level.

Lemon Co. Carts and Pastry

Now, you can get a cup of tasty lemonade for yourself and your friends on the stands but how about when you are throwing a lemonade party? Well, no worries, The Lemon Co. have got your back as they are offering Lemonade Carts for parties and events.

Some exciting news for all of us is that they are about to launch journal and pastry products soon.

Be a The Lemon Co. Franchisee

The Lemon Co. is a stable and rising franchise with seven years of experience so all the systems are in place making it easy to set up and manage. Their Return of Investment average is 17 months but could be 10 months depending on location, with the fastest one being four months in Dumaguete.

Chris Evans is ‘Sexiest Man Alive’

Known for being a dog lover and his strong political views, Chris Evans is hailed as People Magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” this year. He has been known for being charming, intelligent, funny, and appealing. In fact, a lot of women in the world, regardless of their race and age, seem to consider him as their “internet boyfriend.”

Not A Surprising Designation

Gained widespread recognition and fame through his role as Captain  America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he is one of the most sought-after and highest-paid actors in Hollywood. While he seems ecstatic about this title, fans approve of this what they call a long-awaited honor. The result was revealed on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.

He describes his Sexiest Man Alive title as “a weird form of humble bragging.” The 41-year-old Boston native was recently added to the list of the previous Sexiest Men such as Idris Elba, Michael B. Jordan, Richard Gere, Adam Levine, Tom Cruise, and Brad Pitt. He is taking over the title from another Avenger star Paul Rudd, who was last year’s winner.

While everyone seems happy with the news, especially his fans, he couldn’t help but talk about how proud his mom is. “This is something she can really brag about, ” Evans told People Magazine in a recent interview. While his mother is all proud of it, he said that his friends would surely tease him about this new designation. His mom, Lisa, is not surprised at all that his son is hailed as this year’s sexiest by People.

Is Chris Evans Still Single?

Having this new badge of honor got fans asking if Chris is single or not. “The Gray Man” actor admitted that he doesn’t want to talk publicly about his private life. Evans’ dating history comprises A-list Hollywood personalities such as Jessica Biel, Kate Bosworth, Christina Ricci, and Minka Kelly. On the other hand, there were rumors about him dating Selena Gomez and Lily James.

Photo from MICHAEL SCHWARTZ

He is rumored to be dating Warrior Nun actress, Alba Baptista. The two were seen holding hands in Central Park, New York. Neither of them has confirmed the on-going romance. The Brazilian-Portuguese beauty is known for her ability to speak 5 different languages: Spanish, German, French, English, and Portuguese. The “Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris” star is adored by her fans for her incredible Humanitarian work in Cambodia.

While his career is at its peak, the People’s Sexiest Man Alive winner hopes to start a family in the future. He said having kids and a family is what he wants to build. However, he believes that things happen at the right time, with the right person.

Evans is the co-founder of A Starting Point – a website conceived in 2020, which aims to present videos by both former and current elected officials, presenting numerous insights and points of view on certain issues that are related to the United States of America electorate. The civic engagement platform hopes to help voters in understanding the issues of politics in the US.

What We Love about SM Seaside’s Winter Magic Christmas this year

Whoever ordered the cold weather for the holidays, you just got your wish granted.

Now, you might be wondering what to expect and how to prepare for the ice magic experience in the #WinterMagicAtSM. No worries as we’ve got you covered and have a list of all the things, we love about it which is basically everything.

1. Giant white Christmas tree

Who could ever miss this giant white tree? It is the highlight and pride of SM Seaside every Christmas and they never disappoint every year. They have come up with such unique ideas and designs that no tree is the same throughout its history. The magnificent white magic of the towering tree has this calming effect that you may get lost just gazing at it. That sense of lightness and peace alone is an experience you should seek.

2. Santa Claus

This is definitely a treat for the kids as they get to meet and play with the actual Santa Claus. This Santa is particularly loved as it definitely looks like the Santa that the kids have seen on tv so they will definitely love him

3. Penguins & Polar bears

A Winter Christmas Park will never be complete without our favorite Antarctic friends. They make the view spectacular and make a beautiful background as well for your pictures. They are all over the place and great in number so you don’t have to wait in line to play and take a picture with them.

4. Incredible Igloo Pals 

These Igloo pals are also penguins and polar bears, the only difference is they can move and play with the children. No, they are not actual Antarctic animals but mascots with fun and playful people inside to be your friend on that day. The kids can definitely play with them and even hug them spreading warmth and comfort.

· Available: Every Wednesday, Friday-Sunday: 2PM-6PM

Ice up and “Eyes up!” for the magic this holiday season.

SKYGO unveils first Maxi-Scooter Model for the Everyday Commuter

Unparalleled, innovative features extend comfort and safety for every Filipino rider.

Skygo is taking motorcycle models to the next level. The trusted motorcycle brand launched its next-generation maxi-scooter style model on November 8, 2022, at the Oakridge Pavilion, A. S. Fortuna St., Mandaue City. The KPV150 Dual Sport has the power of an all-road two-wheel vehicle while providing comfort like no other.

The KPV150 is available in Space Gray and Sapphire Blue colors. It boasts a 42-44km/L fuel consumption, or 400km coverage per full tank. It also has a naked handlebar to enable easier maneuvers. What’s more? An impressive 149cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke engine with two valves is built within its interior. It also has a 12HP motor power output.

“The safety of every rider is our priority. We also have added comfort and maneuverability in mind, so innovative features were incorporated into the model to accommodate that. Especially now that travel restrictions are being eased, road trips and long-distance travel can become more enjoyable and safer with the KPV150 model,”

SAID GINO ROSALES, THE CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER AT SKYGO PH.

Skygo’s second automatic model also has a full-detail LCD digital dashboard. It has two built-in USB ports and a 12V power outlet. This means riders get the same voltage power as a car outlet. It is equipped with an LED headlamp with low beam lights for daytime running light.

Innovative Features for Safety and Comfort

During the product launch event, Mr. Gino Rosales revealed more details about the KPV150 Dual Sport’s innovative features. With its capabilities, every Filipino rider can go on long rides safely and comfortably.

  • Liquid Cooling System—Helps avoid overheating during long-distance rides.
  • Monoshock Absorber—Gives a smoother riding experience in all road conditions, whether on muddy mountain roads or smooth highways.
  • 180mm High Ground Clearance— Provides unhindered passability for off road rides.
  • Front USD Hydraulic Pressure Fork—Delivers better stability for brake caliper mounting and reduces friction between the stanchion and slider for better safety. The vehicle is also equipped with a kick stand safety switch wherein the motorcycle will not start unless the side stand is tucked in, reducing road mishaps.
  • Rear Center Monoshock Suspension—Improves balance and comfort to maneuver easily over potholes and other road conditions.

KPV150 Dual Sport: Launch Event Highlights

Skygo President David Ian King will grace the event on November 8 together with other executives. After unveiling the new KPV150 product line, an open test drive will also be held at the venue. Other fun activities are also in store for the KPV150 product launch event attendees.

HappyDoc Diagnostics: CebuDoc’s One-Stop Outpatient Services

HappyDoc Diagnostics: CebuDoc’s One-Stop Outpatient Services

HappyDoc Diagnostics, the newest addition to the outpatient endeavor, was formally introduced to the public on October 28, 2022, at a grand launching ceremony held at Cebu Doctors University Hospital.

Approximately two months after it softly opened, the latest outpatient venture of CebuDoc ceremoniously introduced HappyDoc Diagnostics and laid open its services, which are more accessible and affordable for the community.

HappyDoc Diagnostics highlights its one-stop convenience in which the patients can be catered to with its four major services in one go. An edge among others and elevation from CebuDoc’s own previous diagnostics operation.

The facility offers four major services — Laboratory, Cardiology, Radiology, and Executive Check-Up Services — which are now in full operation.

It has been said that HappyDoc is a testament that CebuDoc has kept its promise to be the lifelong healthcare of the community that does not limit its accessibility but rather widens its scope to every sector. To materialize this vision, the facility accepts patients availing services thru its Health Maintenance Organization (HMO).

The opening of HappyDoc Diagnostics unlocks another ‘first’ of CebuDoc as it is the first outpatient facility of the hospital that carries all diagnostic services a patient desires to avail, in one transaction, and with a designated priority number.

To Doctor Potenciano Larrazabal III, Chairman, and President of CebuDoc Group, the grand launching of HappyDoc emphasizes that CebuDoc has built another medium in bringing healthcare closer to the community with the same elevated healthcare standard.

Now that we officially unveil the curtains of HappyDoc, we are happy to announce that after two months of soft opening to evaluate and harness our service delivery, the facility is now fully operational while our services are also available in a full manner,

“The opening of this facility is a testament that we listen to our patients and clients. The healthcare landscape was forever changed by the pandemic and we had the chance to embrace the changes it brought. This new perspective helped us see healthcare differently and redefine what it means to be happy,”

As CebuDoc places high regard on patient care and values each experience you will have each visit, HappyDoc did not just redesign the healthcare system process and offered advanced diagnostic technology, but also structured a healing environment facility with highly-trained staff.

The grand launching of HappyDoc was graced with CebuDoc’s administrative core, suppliers, staff, and media members.
