If your hands are often glued to your phone, scrolling through the latest happenings and trends of the world, then you’ve likely heard of Erewhon — the famous, high-end grocery store in the United States, which is also well-known for its gorgeous (and yes, very pricey) smoothies that can cost upwards of $20. Due to their popularity and viral social media presence, their name has spread all over the world. The smoothies are known for their beautiful presentation, fantastic taste, and their intriguing celebrity collaborations (such as the Hailey Bieber smoothie).
If you’ve been dreaming of trying one of these aesthetically pleasing drinks, but you’re all the way across the world in Malaysia and just could not be bothered to book a 20-hour flight to the U.S., then you’re in luck. Kuala Lumpur has its own rising star in the Malaysian smoothie scene: Brotani Juice Club, located at The MET. This Malaysian-owned brand has been making a name for itself with its beautiful, creamy concoctions. It’s often dubbed an “Erewhon dupe,” but don’t let that title fool you. Just because it’s called a dupe doesn’t mean it’s inferior in any way — in fact, it’s a star in its own right.

The first thing that will catch your eye is the presentation. Each of the smoothies is a work of art, with beautiful patterns of different colours and textures visible on the sides of the cup. These patterns are so beautiful, that it’s almost too pretty to drink!
A crowd favourite is their Sober Pina Colada. This dreamy mix of pineapple, banana, pina lima, coconut milk, coconut cream, and a splash of blue spirulina powder is both eye-catching and incredibly tasty. Just look at how fluffy and smooth it looks! And the flavour? Even better.

But the Sober Pina Colada isn’t the only star on the menu. All their smoothies are a delight. The prices start from RM20+, and while they may not be cheap, many people agree they are well worth the cost. The drinks are known for their incredible smoothness and creaminess, along with different textures that make each sip a fun and flavourful experience. Despite the price tag, it definitely leaves a lingering impression; addictive, inviting you for more.
