Maybe it's because I don't like Mangos
I am not a big fan of this drink and like the title suggests maybe it is because I do not like Mangoes. Actually that is not entirely true. One time we were at a music festival and someone had some cool mangoes so we cut them in half and we each got a half with a spoon. I scooped the meat out of that mango and ate it. That was the best taste I could have experienced at that moment and that one time I really loved mango. I have tried to recreate that taste cutting a mango in half and eating it with a spoon but it did nothing. There was no was to get back that moment.
This drink will probably be loved by anyone who likes to eat mangoes but if you don't then maybe you should opt out.
Arome Lychee
In looking for a translation of Arome I am finding only one thing in all my Internet searching. That It translates from French to English at Arum Lily. In other words a flower. Now my only problem with this is that it would seem very out of context and make no sense to say lily Lychee since a Lychee is a tropical fruit tree native to southern China according to Wikipedia. Anyway putting those two words together if that is what they mean would be gibberish but again what do I know really? not much.
Not a big surprise here but this tastes really similar to other flavored waters that are all over the shelves today. This one is pretty sweet with just a hint of the clear cool goodness that water is truly meant to be.
It's Nutty - White Gourd Juice
Vietnamese Style - Soymilk
He always picks the good ones
lovely Pearl Milk Tea from yesterday's post and my husband picked this drink Chin Chin's Guava Juice Drink. I do not understand why I am always drawn to the nasty drinks and he always seems to pick up the tasty one but it happened again this time. Guava Juice Drink is like a Passion Fruit drink but a little sweeter. I think it would be a good drink over ice or super chilled. I'll test that out and get back to you on it.
Pearl Milk Tea
Yeo's Soymilk - Authentic Asian Drink
Every time I go tot he Asian Food Market I always pick up a can of this drink. At least I know that I will like one thing that I come home with.
Drink - Mandarin Orange Drink
This is my husbands favorite Asian drink. He lived in Japan for two years as a teenager and during that time he drank quite a bit of it, as I understand. He says you could buy it from vending machines all over. It is orange juice pretty much the same orange juice you would find at any grocery store but with a twist. It has a super amount of pulp in it. Somehow they have been able to keep the little juice filled bubbles in an orange intact so that you sort of drink and eat this orange juice. when you tip the can up you get juice filled with the little orange juice bubbles.
If you like Orange juice with pulp then you should try this, if not skip it. It tastes like orange juice but I don't like to eat my drinks and so I am not a huge fan. The thought of ordering it from a vending machine is pretty cool though. Maybe when we go to Japan if you can still get it from a machine I will try it again.
