Happy Lemon

  Hi readers!

      Yesterday my brother and I went to Rockwell Powerplant Mall, one of our purpose in visiting this mall was to try one of the famous milk tea in town, the Happy Lemon.

     Happy Lemon first branch was in Greenhills but the place was to far from us. I'm happy because they open a branch here at the Rockwell (Makati), the place is more convenient.

     A little background about Happy Lemon: They started in 2006 in Hong Kong and now has over 100 outlets spread across Hong Kong, China, Australia, Singapore and other countries. Happy Lemon is not only offering milk tea but they also offer specialty drinks, they have Lemon Series, Rock Salt and Cheese, Milk Tea, Mousse Spin, Cocoa and Coffee, Specialty Drinks and Fresh Tea.

Just like ordering in Starbucks; Fall in line in the cashier area, the cashier will ask for your order, your name and she/he will give you a black big chips (when your order is done it light ups and buzz). Get your order in claiming area then sit, sip, mingle with your friends and most of all enjoy your milk tea :)

Buzzer

Green Tea with Rock Salt and Cheese (Regular P80.00). Recommended Drink

     I order Green Tea with Rock Salt and Cheese. After claiming this order the service crew told me it is best to consume Rock Salt Cheese without the straw so that I can enjoy it more and since the cheese is on top and it's fun licking off your upper lip. So I did, I sip it, then the first flavor I taste is the taste of condensed milk then the taste of green tea (green tea is my all time favorite flavor in beverage). I was looking for the salty taste but I didn't taste it. It is more on milky, sweet, chessy and green tea. They don't serve pastries or cakes but for this milk tea alone I already feel full (just like eating a dessert).

Coffee with Rock Salt and Cheese (Regular P90.00)

     My brother order Coffee with Rock Salt and Cheese. (While sipping our Happy Lemon, were like a judge in a food show we exchange opinion about this drink). He told me that he also taste the condensed flavor in his first sip (we have common observation). The taste is like sweet, chessy and coffee flavor. 

Happy Everyday with Happy Lemon

If your interested here's the Menu

Over-all experienced: 

       The place is good, if you're looking for alternative of Starbucks I recommend this place. The location is inside the mall very strategic you can stay here after strolling or if you are waiting for someone.

      The drink is good also, as I said above even without pastries or cake you will feel full after consuming 1 cap (and even get addicted and order for one more)

       The price is affordable. Much affordable than other Milk or Bubble Tea which price start from 100 plus and up. In Happy Lemon they offer as low as P60.00 and above.

       The service is good I didn't wait for an hour for my order. I got my order for less than 30 minutes. The service crew were friendly too.

If I rate this from 1-5 (and 5 is the highest and 1 is the lowest)

My rate is 5

Happy Lemon Branch:

G/F Promenade, Greenhills, San Juan

4/F Eastwood Mall, Libis Quezon City

2/F Archaeology Annex, Power Plant Mall, Rockwell Center, Makati City

Happy Everday!

Healthy Benefits of Cranberry

Hi Readers!

     I love drinking cranberry juice, before I really don't know the benefits of this fruit but after checking it in the net I'm glad it offers so many healthy benefits. Here some list of health benefits of cranberry juice:

• Avoid UTI (urinary truck infection) - the cranberry juice produce hippuric acid in the urine. The hippuric acid acidifies the urine and prevents bacteria from sticking to the wall of the bladder. (source: Organic Facts )
• Help Obese people (like me :) - These have an emulsifying effect on the fat deposits in our body. So it is good for people who want to shed those extra kilos (source: Organic Facts )
• Reduce Heart attacks- Cranberry juice can reduce heart attacks by as much as 35%. Cranberry juice contains polyphenols which raise your levels of good cholestrol and lower levels of bad cholestrol. (source: Benefits of cranberry juice )
• Avoid Respiratory infections
• Prevent formation of kidney stones
• Strengthens bone and teeth
• Cure cold

     Theres a lot of benefits you can check through the net. This afternoon I went to the nearest grocery and found this cranberry juice in tetra pack (usually cranberry juice comes in a big bottle or in gallon). The Apple & Eve Cranberry juice is available in SM hypermarket or supermarket. In 200 ml tetra pack cost P30.00 pesos.
