Grammy‑winning Nigerian artist Tems has joined Erewhon’s celebrity smoothie club with Lagos Love, a limited‑edition, berry‑forward drink priced at $22 and created to support her Leading Vibe Initiative for women in music.
A Lagos-Inspired Smoothie At Erewhon
The Lagos Love Smoothie launched in December 2025 at Erewhon tonic bars across Southern California, named after “Lagos Love” from Tems’ EP Love Is A Kingdom, released on November 21, 2025. Erewhon describes it as a “bright, berry‑forward blend that comes alive with a touch of aromatic organic fresh basil,” inspired by Tems’ Lagos roots and the song’s romantic, nostalgic mood.
The drink is available only in‑store as part of Erewhon’s rotating line of celebrity smoothies, served in a 20‑ounce cup and positioned as a premium wellness treat for Los Angeles shoppers. With a price point of $22, it sits at the very top of the chain’s already expensive smoothie menu, reinforcing Erewhon’s status as a luxury health destination.
What’s Inside Lagos Love
In typical Erewhon fashion, Lagos Love combines functional ingredients with indulgent flavour. The official ingredient list features MALK Organic Coconut Milk, Yerba Madre Bluephoria Organic Yerba Mate (for a gentle caffeine lift), Wedderspoon Organic Raw Monofloral Manuka Honey KFactor 16, organic red apple juice, chia, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, açai, banana, dates, fresh basil, and a blackberry–blueberry compote.
The blend’s deep berry‑purple shade comes from the combination of raspberries, açai, blueberries, bananas, and blackberries, while basil adds a subtle herbal note to balance the natural sweetness of dates, apple, and honey. Reviews and first‑impression videos describe the smoothie as creamy, coconut‑forward, and dessert‑like, but still firmly in the “functional” health‑drink camp.
Supporting The Leading Vibe Initiative
Beyond taste, Lagos Love carries a philanthropic purpose. Erewhon and Tems state that part of the proceeds from the smoothie will support the Leading Vibe Initiative, the non‑profit platform Tems founded to empower, mentor, and amplify women in music across Africa and the diaspora. The initiative focuses on training, community building, and long‑term investment in young women’s careers, positioning the smoothie as both a wellness product and a fundraising vehicle.
With this collaboration, Tems joins a line‑up of artists and celebrities—such as Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid, and others—who have previously fronted signature Erewhon drinks that blend brand storytelling with highly Instagrammable ingredients. For fans, Lagos Love becomes a way to “drink the era” of Love Is A Kingdom while backing the artist’s mission to change who gets supported and seen in the music industry.
