Asian Drinks to try

At first I decided to come up with a list of Vietnamese drinks but then I realized some of these drinks are popular all over Asia so it made more sense to come up with a list of Asian drinks. I hope that you will have a chance to try or even make some of these drinks and experience something new!

1.Pennywort Drink-I drink this every summer and it can be easily found in the drinks section of your local Asian supermarket. It's intense dark green color might make you a little squeamish but there's nothing too be scared about how it tastes at all. Pennywort drink is sweet, refreshing, and supposedly and makes your skin look better.

2.Soy milk-Asian soy milk is different from the soy milk sold in many groceries. Asian soy milk is less thick, more watery, and usually a good deal sweeter. There are many Asian soy milk brands such as Yeo's but I prefer the taste and flavor of homemade soy milk which is easier to make than it may sound. To locate a soy milk machine, either look online or your local Asian supermarket may carry one (the particular model I have plays "Ode to Joy" when it's making soy milk). Asian soy milk is sometimes flavored with a special green herb that gives it a green color and a nice aroma.

3.Artichoke juice-Artichoke juice is very healthy for you. Making this drink is very simple; you simply boil artichokes and collect the juice that comes out. The flavor? It tastes and smells like tea.
