Disgusting or delightful?: TikTok's new iced latte trend from China includes an unusual veggie

“Sometimes combining your fave things is not a good idea.”

You've probably heard of the mega-viral Dalgona coffee and Crema Di Caffe, but now there's a new iced latte trend on the scene, and people are divided.

The drink has gained popularity in China and is starting to make waves on TikTok for its use of an unexpected ingredient - spring onion.

It's made by putting chopped spring onions at the bottom of a cup and adding ice, milk and coffee. For extra pizzazz, chopped onion is sprinkled on top.

Although it has an aesthetic appearance, loads of people are questioning whether the veggie is actually a decent ingredient that belongs in our morning brew.

“I love scallion but in coffee??,” said one user.

Another added: “Sometimes combining your fave things is not a good idea.”

“I feel like this would send me straight to the toilet,” said a third.

Others are adventurous enough to put the unique drink to the test.

“I’m weird but to me, that actually sounds good,” said one keen woman.

“Respectfully… maybe,” another considered.

A third said: “I can see this being delicious in the right mood.”

One man even dared to try it himself and managed to finish the entire cup, so maybe it’s not as outrageous as it may seem.

I hate to say it, but curiosity has gotten the better of me, and I'm gonna have to give this a try. Wish me all the luck!
