OVERALL My youngest and I were both parched on 1/17/2024…read moreafter being outside in the chilly wind and drinking all the water we brought. Doh! I've been by Drink Emporium so many times just to find that they were closed. So before I started ordering I inquired about their hours: Open daily from 12PM-9PM. It was about 3PM and they were out of aguas frescas as well as their shaved ice. What?!?! RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 4 PARKING There is ample parking nearby if you have a trailer or something and prefer to walk up. Otherwise, this is a drive-thru establishment with order/pick-up windows on both long sides of the building. LOCATION/AMBIANCE This is what I would refer to as a beverage barn. It's located in the parking lot just east of the Long John Silver's/A&W. There is no intercom -- just order at the window. Tip: I take photos of the menu for my passengers then pass my or their phone around so we aren't completely idiotic ordering. THE DRINKS Here's what we settled on and I can confidently recommend: + Simple (meaning regular-sized) sour watermelon slushy ($5.10) + Simple papaya slushy with lime juice, powdered ginger, chamoy & tajin ($5.10) LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB They don't have an actual kid's menu, but there are definitely kid sizes for all of their beverages. Also, "pup kups" are free! SERVICE We were helped by a nice man who didn't charge me extra when I requested for a more spicy papaya slushy. I can't do simple. Lol. MY FAVORITE PART... My papaya slushy! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... I should have tried harder to make it here sooner! TIPS + They have 4 different sizes for most of their drinks. + They accept debit/credit cards. The charge will show up as "A Taste of Mexico" on your statement.
