Caffeine devotees flock to a coffee shop which liquefies swine innards, mixes with latte, to make drink reflecting local delicacy
A cafe in southwestern China has been thrust into the limelight thanks to its newly launched coffee, which is made with cooked pork intestines.
The unconventional drink sold in the coffee shop in Jiangyou, a small city in Sichuan province, includes latte mixed with cooked pork intestine liquid and chitterlings, The Cover reported.
It sells for 32 yuan (US$4) per cup and has three levels of taste: entrance, mid and high. The higher the level, the stronger the intestine taste.
“Red-braised pork intestine is a popular cuisine in Jiangyou,” Zhang Yuchi, owner of the coffee shop, was quoted as saying.
