FLIK recently introduced their newest addition to their menu: custom drinks. The menu features made-to-order coffee, iced tea, boba, and fruity refreshers, and these new drinks have been a hit since their launch on Feb. 25.
With the introduction of the “Sip Sequence” by FLIK, each day of the week has been assigned two unique drink flavors. Typically, the two drink flavors of the day are made and sold early in the morning from around 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. Later in the day, custom drink orders are available for purchase.
Around three weeks after their release, the most popular drinks have been the Thai Milk Tea and Strawberry Lemonade.
Generally, reviews for FLIK’s newest drinks have been overwhelmingly positive. Many students described them as authentic and similar to drinks from other boba shops that they have tried.
“I like that the strawberry lemonade is fruity, sweet and refreshing, with hints of lemon,” freshman Claudia Kwon said.
Head Chef Joseph Stilson shared his motivations behind bringing custom drinks to FLIK.
“I often see students going off campus to buy drinks, so I wanted to offer drinks at FLIK to make them more accessible,” Stilson said.
Through a partnership with SIP Studio, FLIK was able to curate a menu and bring in the supplies needed to make the drinks daily.
The launch of custom drinks in FLIK has undoubtedly been a success, earning the approval of Sage’s student population. From fruity refreshers to classic milk teas, the drinks have quickly become a go-to treat for students during breaks and lunch time.
