Yuanyang (drink)
Yuanyang (Chinese: ??), or Yuenyeung, is a popular kind of beverage in Hong Kong, which is a mixture of Hong Kong-style milk teaand coffee. It was originally served at dai pai dongs and cha chaan tengs, but is now available at many restaurants. It can be served hot or cold.
Yuanyang, which means "Mandarin Duck" in Chinese, is a symbol of conjugal love in Chinese culture, as the water bird usually appears in pairs. Obviously, the connotation of "pair" is used to name the drink, which is the pairing up of coffee and milk tea.
