"Cane Confections is coming to Convoy Street, where it’s replacing Freeze ice cream in the complex that also houses Izakaya Sakura. Opening in mid-June, the shop will revolve around drinks made with fresh-pressed sugar cane juice, a staple Southeast Asian street snack. Touted as being less sweet that typical boba drinks, they’ll be topped with everything from strawberries and kumquats to young coconut. Nguyen says the cafe will also bring another trendy Asian beverage to San Diego — creamy shakes made by blending purple rice, also know as forbidden rice, with tangy yogurt." - Candice Woo
