Going Viral in China, Coffee Mixed with Sliced ​​Scallions

JAKARTA – China has recently become famous for its various kinds of extreme culinary delights. One of them is a coffee drink which recently went viral on cyberspace.

Even though it is not as extreme as other culinary delights in China, this coffee drink has been quite successful in making netizens curious. The reason is, this coffee is served with an abundance of chopped spring onions. The leek coffee drink has recently gone viral and is loved by the people there.

This was also expressed by a content creator from China named Mia through her TikTok account, @chinesewithmia.

Through one of her contents, Mia explains why coffee sprinkled with sliced ​​spring onions is quite viral in her country. Among other things, because the taste is so unique.

Mia said that the coffee has a bitter taste as well as a spicy sensation that comes from the chopped spring onions. According to him, this coffee has recently become popular because it is said to be rich in energy and calcium.

“Scallion coffee goes viral in China! “After the cafe started serving cups of spring onion coffee, it started to be talked about a lot,” said Mia via her TikTok account, quoted on Sunday (5/5/2024).

“There are those who think that the spicy taste of coffee is unique. And it is a source of energy and calcium,” he continued.

However, Mia also said that many netizens were actually ‘disgusted’ and felt strange about serving coffee combined with a sprinkling of sliced ​​spring onions.

“Meanwhile, there are also those who say that the drink makes them want to vomit. “Scallion coffee is the latest addition to China’s ‘Dark Cuisine’ trend,” he said.
