Lawson has continuously launched interesting items, from the 99-peso Swedish Meatball meal, a 99-peso Thai pandan chicken meal, a 117-peso liempo meal, to a 130-peso lechon paksiw meal. A recent addition to the long list is not another rice meal, but a dessert. Meet Lawson's new Milo Swirl Cups.

Where To Buy Milo Swirl Cups
Lawson's Milo Swirl Cups costs P50 per cup. These are available in select Lawson convenience stores for a limited time only.
The convenience store teamed up with the drink for these special Mio Swirl Cups, which uses the chocolate-flavored malted powder and turns it into a soft-serve treat. It's only available for a limited time, so if there's a Lawson convenience store near you, cross your fingers that the Milo Swirl Cup is available!
If you're lucky and it is available, here's what happens when you order one: The Lawson employee will give you an empty cup, around four to five inches tall, and a wooden spoon. Since the Milo Swirl Cup is self-service, you need to go to the soft-serve machine (specifically, the one that has the "Milo Swirl Cup" label) and pull down the lever.
The Milo soft serve comes out of the machine, so make sure your cup is under it to receive it. It's best to hold the cup with your free hand, so should you miscalculate the cup placement, you can easily adjust.

Nothing hits the spot like nostalgia
You kind of expect nothing special about a Milo-flavored soft serve. Once you've tried Milo-flavored ice cream, it feels like you've tried them all. What's the point, right? But that wasn't the case for Lawson's Milo Swirl Cups.
What we loved about it is that it doesn't skimp on the Milo flavor. When you melt powdered Milo in hot water, it can taste a little bland if you don't add a sweetener, but with the Milo Swirl Cups, you can definitely taste the chocolate of the Milo and the sweetness of the soft serve in every lick!
Note that the cup is swirl-all-you-can for a fixed amount of P50. Even if you're given a small cup, you can swirl the soft serve as tall as you can. Just make sure it won't fall over.
Just in case you didn't know, Lawson also has Ice-Blended Milo, if you want more Milo. But those looking for the truly great eats, should check out the Milo Swirl Cups.
