It's not normal to walk into an ice cream store to get a tea drink, but I was thirsty. I was waiting for friends to meet me at parked car a few steps away from this store. Curious, I walked over and looked at the window posted menus. Being it was hard to read, I walked to the counter and placed my order with the gentleman who was making an eggette at the cooking station on the side.
After placing my order, I returned to my car. About five minutes later, I peeked in and caught the cashier's eyes and he waved me in to get my drink. When I looked at it, Uranus (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=_Rz51r0vddm4ILeYUP6K-w), 25% sweetness, described as a green apple, passion fruit, lychee green tea. The 1st thing I noticed was that it had no ice. I don't believe he asked me whether I wanted it as I generally like my drinks iced. The tea flavor was good but it was a bit too warm for me to gulp my drink down. I pivoted as the cup was generously large. When I got home, with my ice machine working well, I basically turned this into four decent sized cups of iced tea. The sweetness is conservative so, if you like some sweet, you'll likely have to start at 50% sweetness. The tea flavor was prominent as the fruit flavors were a bit muted by comparison. After drinking a few sips while driving home, I saved most of it to drink at home where I would pour into my tall glass filled with ice. Amazingly, that cup made four glasses for the rest of the day and through the next morning.
The store had 4-5 customers, some looking like they were playing video games... you get the demographic. I didn't try their namesake ice cream rolls not the eggette but perhaps on another visit. The cashier was a bit aloof though efficient, perhaps due to the busyness in helping customers. While leaving, I noticed a posted sign for Hutong Jian Beng. I still have a frozen package from Pastel/Neon in my freezer. Perhaps, I'll try this to save on reheating time. Nice addition to the block especially with the number of restaurants in the surrounding area.
