Another “juice” based option from Meco/my local Chinese convenience store – not a milk tea. I find it really interesting how prominently the pink grapefruit has been made on the packaging of the drink itself and all of the promotional imagery that I was able to find while looking for a good photo to use here on Steepster…
Personally, I thought this mostly tasted like a very nice peach juice, with undertones of sweeter grapefruit. I didn’t think the grapefruit was the strongest note – but if you were going off advertising alone I think that’s the takeaway that you would have. I do like the combination together though – they compliment well, and it makes the peach seem somewhat fresher and more full bodied/rounded out. I’d drink this one again, for sure!
Also – this doesn’t really relate to the drink at all but I thought it was kind of neat seeing these two fruits deliberately comboed together because I know that sometimes peach flavouring is used in tea blend to convey the taste of sweet grapefruit notes as a bit of a “booster” of sorts. Just a fun arbitrary fact – kind of like how almond flavouring and cherry flavouring sometimes can be used in mirror one another or boost one another.
