Froot is the brainchild of Raymond
and Cecilia Cheong. Raymond had been following the success
of American and Australian juice bar chains and it was
time to bring the concept to Taiwan. He opened Froot
a year ago and has a steadily growing clientele. Super
Juice Cocktails (NT$110) are a blend of fresh juices,
while Super Smoothies (NT$100) are a blend of juices
and low-fat frozen yoghurt. What makes these drinks
special is the addition of vitamin supplements such
as multivites, guarana, ginkgo biloba, soy protein or
even wheatgrass. I had a Stress Reliever from the Super
Smoothies menu. It's hard to believe something that
tastes so good can also be good for you! The top-seller
at Froot is the Slim & Slender which contains a
slimming supplement. Raymond says it's a way for his
customers to add a bit of guilt-free sweetness to their
lives! The menu also has Fruit Smoothies (NT$90) and
Ice Blended Smoothies (NT$85) which are ideal for those
who are lactose intolerant or simply don't like the
taste of dairy.
