"Shall we compare these drinks and discuss?"

**New Menu [Tapioca Lemon Squash]** A refreshing drink made by mixing 100% lemon juice syrup with soda water. The contrast between the pink of the lemon squash, inspired by the 'Petrova Line,' and the black of the tapioca makes it a visually appealing drink.
