Aqua S Review: Sea Salt And Thai Milk Tea Soft Serve With Fairy Floss From Sydney
Aqua S at Orchard Xchange Singaporeans’ appetite for new food in town knows no bounds – we will queue for ages and seek out the most Instagrammable dishes. Sydney is home to many desserts that went viral, not only for how pretty they look but as well for their novelty.
Cue Aqua S , which has finally open their doors on 11 September at Orchard Xchange. Their pastel-hued soft serve is the prettiest ice-cream I’ve ever set my eyes on.
Aqua S: Sea Salt And Thai Milk Tea Soft Serve With Fairy Floss From Sydney Food at Aqua S Aqua S brings soft serve to the next level. More than just a pretty treat that’s great for the ‘gram, their soft serves are also lip-smacking delicious.
The subtle umami notes of the luscious soft serve intrigue your taste buds, making you unable to resist a second bite – and another. Apart from their Signature Sea-Salt , they also offer two other soft serve flavours, which will change every fortnightly; once on the first day of the month and once more on the 16th day.
During their debut day, we had the pleasure of trying their Thai Tea and Lychee soft serves. All the soft serves at Aqua S are made in-house to ensure utmost freshness. Bursting with tropical notes of sweet lychee, what I like most about this soft serve is its velvety texture.
This makes it far more decadent than the usual sorbet-like lychee ice-cream I tend to have. Aqua S also offers swirled flavours such as Lychee and Sea Salt as well as Thai Tea and Sea Salt .
I personally prefer this version, as the briny notes of the Sea-Salt help brighten up the flavours of the other two soft serves. Complete the picture for Instagram by getting all four toppings to go with your soft serve.
Priced at $0.80 a pop, white fairy floss rims your soft serve like a cloud, and is then garnished with colourful popping candy and sweet popcorn . To balance off the sugary toppings, I highly recommend the Sea-Salt when you order this work of art.
If you can’t get enough of their soft serves, you can also grab one of their Ice Cream Mini-Tubs ($3.80) to bring home. Just like their pretty soft serves, the interior is also Instagram-worthy.
Softee, you will find that Aqua S’ soft serve reigns supreme, with its buttery texture and pronounced flavours. Plus, their signature Sea-Salt is really to die for, thanks to its well balanced taste that’s unlike the cloyingly sweet and salty pairing found in some salted caramel desserts.
I as well like how the flavours rotate every 15 days, as this means I will never get bored of their toothsome treats.
