Trivia
[For Everyone] A legendary drink jokingly called 'Earth's strongest laxative' in Taiwan net slang. Said to be because the combo of cassia seed in the tea, massive ice, and oily non-dairy creamer stimulates the gut. Still, its cheap intense sweetness is addictive; Taiwanese drink this daily to welcome the morning.
