Remember how Chun Cui He (純萃。喝) took Singapore by storm last year, when it was released in 7-Eleven outlets? People went apeshit over the shampoo-bottle-looking drink, with some even buying in bulk to resell for profit.
After a big setback in which it was taken off the shelf for a few months, it seemed like the hype hasn’t died off. When my colleague wrote about them releasing two new flavours, Rose Milk Tea and Rose Honey Milk Tea, in March, the article garnered over 3.5K shares—even when they’re only available in Taiwan.
So you can guess what’s going to happen when they release the new flavour in Singapore
Actually, you don’t need to, because today (20 May 2017), one of them, the Rose Honey Milk Tea, is now available in selected 7-Eleven outlets.
And judging from some of the comments in 7-Eleven Facebook, it’s set to generate the same hype.
People have likened the taste to our old-time Singapore / Malaysia drink, bandung. But hey, do people really go for the drink for its taste?
Because there’s some meaning behind the date of its release. Or so I thought.
Today is 20 May, which is known as 520 day in the Mandarin-speaking community. Read 520 a million times in Mandarin and you might just pronounce it as “我爱你”. In other words, you can call 20 May an unofficial Valentine’s Day in Mandarin-speaking countries.
And, well, the official 純萃喝。chun cui he – Singapore Page seems to agree, with them emphasizing on 520.
To save you from a wild goose chase for this drink, here’re some of the outlets that might have the drink (based on comments from 7-Eleven’s Facebook Page):
- Yio Chu Kang MRT Station
- Nex
- Commonwealth MRT Station
I know what you’re thinking: “say might as well don’t say, eh?” But don’t like this la. I’ve at least gone through the comments leh.
Then again, when this information is in public domain, it means it’s highly likely that they’ve all flew off the shelf. #justsaying
