Best Juices in Penang

Imagine this, blissfully being blown by the breezy air, tweets of birds serving as open-air orchestra, shrouded by an undisturbed majestic of Mother Nature while imbibing fresh fruit juices that are impeccable. Located at the mouth of Moon Gate, Botanical Gardens, this comfy spot is always teeming with patrons who are offered with far-flung choices of healthy shots to charm their soul and tongue. Served in paper cups, opt your frothy juice to be dunked with chunks of fruits for an additional layer of texture and taste. The juices are usually thick and naturally nectarous, giving your palate an additional oomph. Their smoothies and fruit ice are not to be missed too. 

The name actually explains the whole plot, it’s downright a realm of arts and heritage with a kitchen that dishes out the finest Asian-inspired dishes that are gratifying. Strategically located at the heart of Armenian Street, it’s full of life at any time of the day. The interior exudes an old world charm titivated with nostalgic photos, thought-provoking arts and comfort seating that offers a view of the street. The best match for the meals is their Green Apple Juice, which bombards your palate with a sweet and sour hit. Squeaky sounds of the straws are constantly heard thanks to this greenish-haven in a mug. 

Let’s unplug from hipster cafes and juicing scenes and hop back to an old-school atmosphere to devour the best thirst quencher since the early days, the classic coconut stall. For a respite from the blistering tropical heat of Penang, make your way to Abu Siti Lane and join throngs of backpackers, tourists and locals chugging down fresh coconut juices. Schmooze around while admiring heaps of coconuts skillfully being sliced at lickety-split. The next joy would be slithering through the tender inner flesh of the coconut which is oh-so-worth it. Looking for a variation, coconut jelly, pudding and shakes are among the offerings too. Stay healthy in a typical Malaysian style and continue your trails to the street and bump into more humble delicacies.
