Yuenyeung · Hong Kong

Yuenyeung mixes coffee with Hong Kong milk tea, three parts coffee to seven parts tea by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department's account, and is served hot or cold.

Yuenyeung originated at Hong Kong's dai pai dong and cha chaan teng. Its name means mandarin ducks, a Chinese symbol of conjugal love because the birds appear in pairs yet look very different, and the drink pairs two unlike things. Lan Fong Yuen on Gage Street claims its owner Lum Muk-ho invented both yuenyeung and silk stocking milk tea in 1952; the yuenyeung claim is unverified. A caffeine free children's version is made with Horlicks and Ovaltine.
