Colourful Drinks

Have you realised that our drinks come in so many colours? The past few weeks have had me testing out a few very different coloured drinks - some the usual we all know, and some very new ones.

First up, the morning brew of black coffee which turns brown when mixed with milk.

Some would opt for the usual brown tea instead - or 'teh' as they call it in the coffee-shops, which goes well with the half boiled eggs... and maybe the kaya toast!

Then comes the many coloured drinks.

First off, the one we are rather accustomed to - the air bandung (the rose drink).

air bandung, red
Just look at its rich red


Talking about red, there is also the strawberry drink - in red as well.

Just look at its red & pink - topped with the contrasting white cream


Next up, yellow. First the usual mango - but this comes with a twist. It has the pearls in them.

bubble tea, mango freeze with pearls
Remember the bubble tea craze? Mango freeze with pearls


Another yellow - rather unique: the durian drink. I just mentioned not too long ago on wanting to try a durian drink, and I did!

Two more colours - first green.

sugarcane
The ever refreshing sugarcane


I also had a take of a green fizzy (or is it fuzzy?) drink.

Finally, blue. Yes, a blue drink. And we call aliens weird. lol.

So, there you have the many colours of our daily drinks. What a colourful life! :)

  14. I didn't know there's such a thing as durian drink. But I guess if you can have mango or orange juice, why not durian? Does it taste good?
