Smoothies and Juices

Red, green, and pink Thai milk teas (RMB 24-28), as well as the curiously named Lemon in Hundreds of Sweet Fruit (RMB 18), are all on offer at this humble Sanlitun Soho shop.

Brown sugar black tea lattes (RMB 22), milk foam peach oolong teas (RMB 20) and The Alley tapioca milk milk tea (RMB 17) are among the sweet but not overly indulgent highlights at this milk tea shop.

Fruity, citrusy teas with a milky upper layer? This chain pulls it off, combining the best elements of your favorite milk tea shop with an enticing price point versus portion of 750ml for approximately RMB 25 – also a pretty big draw.

One of the few established names on the Beijing juice cleansing scene, Echo Juice, located on the first floor of Central Park, stocks six kinds of organic, cold-pressed juice (RMB 48-57), smoothies (RMB 53-64), shooters (RMB 32-34), smoothie bowls (RMB 83), and a range soda waters (RMB 45-47). The venue makes a point of using high-end juice extractors from Nutrifaster and Blendtec blenders. 

There are several tables outside, high stools along the wall inside, and a comfortable sofa area at this café-style venue. 

This very Chinese fresh fruit bar is great with fresh ingredients. Make sure to ask for less sugar if you don't want to defeat the purpose of celery and wheat grass.

Walk up the long stairway to this dimly light café and you’re met with an ambiance well suited for a romantic rendezvous. Partitions and opaque curtains separate the sofas set amongst the dark wood tables and there are even several secluded rooms in the back. They serve a variety of food--pastas, sandwiches, and Chinese set meals, but the stand out on the menu at this café is the extensive drink selection. Many varieties of coffee, tea, milkshakes, sherbet, and fresh juice all start at RMB 25. Free delivery within 2 km.

Small chain of smoothie stand serves healthy blended smoothies (i.e. The Detoxifier, Mango Soy Smoothies), juices, teas and other beverages. The Sanlitun stand is perfect for a hot summer's day.

Small cafe and bakery serves coffee, teas, fresh juices, smoothies, desserts, beer and bakes a variety of made-to-order cakes.

This comfortable, laptop-friendly Wuadaokou cafe serves waffles in a variety of flavors (ranging from cinammon and chocolate frappe to banana toast and green tea), smoothies, juices, cakes and dessert, imported coffees and Western dishes (i.e. Sauerkraut Hotdog with Cheese, Tuna Curry and Teriyaki Chicken Sandwiches). They also host regular English and Chinese corners.

Far more peaceful than the average
