On June 27, 2024, at 8:41 PM, during a discussion about recommended beverage shops at YiZhong Street, many people think of the long-standing Duoduo Tea House and ED Coffee. Passing by ED Coffee, witnessing a long queue, I decided to also purchase a drink. Despite the name ED Coffee, they offer not just coffee but also a wide variety of juices, smoothies, milk teas, and more. I bought two smoothies due to the hot weather that day. The signboard seemed to highlight their QQ Series. Staff even provided a sample while waiting in line. I found the kumquat aloe smoothie particularly delicious, with large aloe pieces. Although the shop is known for its coffee, it offers a versatile selection of beverages to cater to different preferences.
