Singapore's Old Tea Hut serves a range of interesting citrus drinks, including sweet Honey Lime Tea, Lemon Tea and even a Salted Lemon beverage.
While it might seem unusual to add salt to an item that's already quite sour, salt actually helps to cut some of the tartness, while also helping to hydrate the body better. As such, the Salted Lemon beverage is one of the most refreshing drinks on the menu. In terms of presentation, the salted rim of the drink makes the beverage resemble a much healthier version of a margarita.
For advanced orders, consumers have the chance to tailor exactly how they would like their Old Tea Hut beverage to taste. For instance, there are options to increase or reduce the amount of concentrate, sweetness or thickness of a drink.
