Baristas at a cafe in Guangdong are trying to create a new drink that represents the region. Since Guangdong is famous for its steamed chicken specialty, the staff came up with the idea of using chopped chicken pieces, sprinkled with coriander, in coffee. Then, add milk and coffee.
This unusual combination has caused a lot of controversy on Chinese social media. Some people think that drinking coffee and eating steamed chicken separately is enough, if you enjoy them together, they will lose all the deliciousness of both. Most people think that this combination will ruin the taste of coffee and chicken.
One person joked: "This dish is probably for those who work late, but still want to have breakfast and drink coffee."
Besides, some people seem quite interested and curious about this initiative.
This is not the first time strange coffee variations have appeared in China. Earlier this year, scallion milk tea and chili coffee also attracted attention on international media platforms.
