A Sweet Heritage Sip: The Melktert Dream Dom Pedro at Protea Hotel Balalaika

Heritage Month in South Africa is all about celebrating traditions—and at the Protea Hotel by Marriott Johannesburg Balalaika Sandton, they’ve found a deliciously indulgent way to raise a glass to heritage.

Enter the Melktert Dream Dom Pedro: a creamy, dreamy twist on the classic dessert cocktail that blends smooth vanilla ice cream with the unmistakable cinnamon-kissed flavour of melktert.

Served exclusively throughout September, this special is everything guests love about the iconic South African treat, but with a boozy, grown-up edge that makes it perfect for sipping slowly after a meal.

  • Priced at R90, it’s a decadent yet accessible indulgence that manages to feel both nostalgic and a little bit cheeky. Available at both The Bull Run and Lords Bar, the Melktert Dream Dom Pedro is more than just a drink—it’s a heritage celebration in a glass. Whether you’re winding down after dinner or meeting friends for a midweek treat, it’s the perfect way to toast to South Africa’s culinary traditions.
