1.Arctic Ocean
20 years ago in Jinan when you eat, no matter what you eat, no matter what, no matter what spring, summer, fall and winter, will choose to buy a bottle of Arctic Ocean, to ask why, ask is sentiment. Don't ask, ask is sentiment!
The Arctic Ocean soda has been 70 years old so far, in Jinan you can't say you know, simply familiar. It is a sweet and sour orange-flavored soda, in glass bottles, each bottle is 500 milliliters. For me, an old Jinanite, Arctic Ocean is a hub that carries a close relationship with my grandparents, and whenever I take a sip of Arctic Ocean, I am reminded of my dad and my grandpa.
Even though Jinan's TV stations hardly publicize Arctic Ocean now, the old Jinan people represented by me still have the advertisement slogan of Arctic Ocean at the beginning: "Drink it all the time" in their mind, which has become an important driving force and a significant factor for many Jinan people to love Arctic Ocean and support it.
The packaging of the small glass bottle has not changed at all, and the taste is exactly the same as before. In this way, whether it is the people who are returning home, or the people who are going far away from home, they can't help but drink Arctic Ocean when they arrive at the place, and it's obvious that Arctic Ocean has already become the memories of the hometown and the carrier.
2. Sour plum soup
Summer in East China is often unusually hot and very dry, making people irritable, so in this case we usually choose sour plum soup, this amazing drink. There are very many types and brands of sour plum soup, but in my heart, as long as it is the old Jinan people do their own sour plum soup, all! If you come to Jinan, you stroll around the streets and shopping malls, you can find a lot of homes selling sour plum soup, this time don't be polite, please have a cup, prolong your life!
To say that I often drink the type, that can be a lot to go, the most classic several should be unadulterated other colors of the white "fresh fruit sour plum soup", the taste is always appropriate rich, sweet as syrup, you can clearly taste the sweetness of the plums and the fruit flavor, this sour plum soup flavor level is very dense, and extraordinarily The flavor layers of this sour plum soup are very dense and distinctive. The flaming red color is "Red Apricot and Apricot Sour Plum Soup", which I particularly recommend, mainly because of the solid ingredients, and the taste is very full and very refreshing. The difference between the two types here is whether or not apricot meat is added, which has a richer, more layered flavor. And it comes with a spoon thoughtfully prepared for you, so if you're done with the soup, then try the apricot meat!
3. Fresh Tea House
Fresh Tea House as Jinan's "Tea Wonderland", Fresh Tea Lane is a very famous tea tasting place, which is only known to Jinan locals! Walking around the old cultural city, sipping a cup of tea while walking, you will feel like you have traveled thousands of years ago, and the charm of the ancient tea tasting will make you can't help but drink a cup and a cup. In the teahouse there are several specialty drinks that I personally recommend. The first is the osmanthus yin, which is a combination of oolong tea flavored with osmanthus and pure milk, with a very delicious aroma. Second is the Pearl, which is a very refreshing tea that you can feel the light aroma of the flowers with a delicate taste. The third is Mulberry Berry Berry, which is a cool and sweet fruit fruit tea, you can eat the full flesh of the fruit in every sip you drink. The last is the Plum Spice Milk Red, which uses Golden Jun Mei black tea with a large snow top made from animal cream, which tastes like it has a very rich flavor. The overall flavor of the drink is sweet and the ingredients are very healthy, so you are welcome to try and experiment.
