As a big fan of Beijing yogurt, I thought Yomie's might be worth a try. Spoiler alert: it was just alright. I shelled out $9 for the mango yogurt, and honestly, it was pretty mid. Imagine paying premium prices for a yogurt that's icier than a winter's day and has crunchy bits of ice--yeah, not ideal. The mango yogurt was more yogurt than mango, and at times, I couldn't even tell it was supposed to be mango. It felt like a watered-down, icier version of Beijing yogurt with some mango bits thrown in for good measure. Then they slapped on a hefty price tag. Was it worth $9? Absolutely not. You can get better quality yogurt at your local Chinese bakery without breaking the bank. Think I got a similar drink at Rainbow Bakery once for only $6 AND it was larger. For what it's worth, Yomie's felt more like a glorified and overrated Beijing yogurt. Think fancy Instagram spot rather than a genuine yogurt haven. Sure, the aesthetics might draw you in, but the substance doesn't quite match up. The guy at the counter looked rather confused when I spoke to him and asked me to repeat myself multiple times. Maybe he didn't understand English very well, which made for an interesting experience. However, I did get to try their purple rice yogurt from a sample they had outside, and I must say, it was definitely a step up from the mango yogurt. It's more watery than traditional Beijing yogurt, but if you find yourself there, the purple rice yogurt is worth a shot. Would I come back? Nah, I think I'll pass. There are plenty of other places that deliver on taste without the hefty price tag or the Instagram hype.
Cute bubble tea shop located near the subway station. The store is pretty small but they do have seats and a table if you want to sit inside. I stoped by to grab a drink and try their popcorn chicken and really enjoyed everything. I ordered the strawberry yogurt drink which was really good and we also ordered the regular milk tea with pearls which was also really good. Everything is decently priced and worth the money.
Got the original purple rice yogurt 50% sugar. Simple and yummy. the cup sleeve(?) is so adorable. the interior is quite nice as well
This right here, folks, is a glorified smoothie. Was it a delicious smoothie? Yes. But it doesn't quite change the fact that it was a smoothie for me. We tried the Passion and Lychee Oat flavors, both of which were yogurt-y (shocking) with just a splash of fruit. I was super excited for my Passionfruit one because I saw some of the reviews hype her up and talk up the actual passionfruit that I'd be able to taste inside, but I think mine was reaaaal blended together so I got passion flavor but no proof of the passion. Ultimately, though, it was a good, thick, passionfruit smoothie with an emphasis on the yogurt ingredient. I will say that it was more like breakfast than an actual drink. I didn't try their classic yogurt with purple rice upon strong recommendation against it from my sisters, both of whom found the rice unappetizing in a drink. That may just be them, though, and I'm inclined to go back one day to try it for myself... but I'd probably stick with boba if I were craving something to drink.
What did I just drink?! It's so good! Yomie's was on my list for a while ever since my sister had a purple rice boba in Hawaii. But Yomie's purple rice drink is even better! Forget boba. Get the chewy purple rice! Purple rice yogurt 5/5 I requested less ice and almond milk. It was perfect.
Nice! another new drink shop in the area specializing in yogurt drinks! Stopped by during their soft opening and tried 4 different flavors of yogurt drinks - my favorite was the passion fruit yogurt drink where it's a nice balance of fruityness and yogurty, it reminds me of mango lassi just with passion fruit flavors. My friends like the mango one and the dragon fruit one. I also got to try their signature purple rice yogurt drink which was interesting and chewy, I think I prefer to stick to fruity flavors. Worth a try if you like yogurt & fruits. Love that they use a lot of fresh fruits as the base of the drink, it's creates a good balance, some are a bit sweeter than what I would normally prefer but still pretty refreshing and unqiue, check it out if you're looking for a new spot to try in flushing! Super friendly staff, and do expect some wait time if they're busy. Overall 4-4.5 stars, bumping it up to support new local businesses in the area!
I was fortunate to be invited to Yomie's soft opening this weekend! Thanks to Vicky and her staff for the invite & hospitality! Honestly, I was curious about their Purple Rice x Yogurt drinks but a little apprehensive since I tend not to like overly milky drinks. (This is the same problem I have with Tiger Sugar's Brown Sugar Boba Milk). Since this was just a soft opening, their hot drinks weren't available but there were plenty of cold drinks to choose from. I was tempted to try one of their many fruity yogurt drinks (see my photo for menu) but ultimately chose their signature drink: Purple Rice Yogurt drink. Well....I loved it! What a nice surprise! Upon first sip, I tasted the slightly tangy yogurt; followed by the chewy/chunky purple rice. This was delicious. I loved the chewy purple rice and this could do serious battle over boba. This was a refreshing drink; pretty filling and only slightly sweet. I don't like overly sugary drinks so this was perfect for me. Good luck to Yomie's Rice x Yogurt! Next time I'm in Flushing, I will stop by to try their other beverages. Note: there is also a Yomie's in Elmhurst, Queens but with different owners. Check out Yomie's in Flushing, and while you're there, stop by next door for some Doufuhua (soy bean pudding) at Soy Bean Chan's (it's a Soy Bean/Flower shop), which is right next door!
Yomie's Rice x Yogurt (有米酸奶), an Australian chain that sells yogurt-based drinks, now has a second New York City location -- in Downtown Flushing, Queens. This drink category is popular in East Asia, China, and Australia, and now Yomie is bringing it to the United States and Canada. Thanks to a Yelp friend, I had the opportunity to visit during the Downtown Flushing location's soft opening. Yomie's differentiation is that most of their drinks are made with yogurt; healthier than flavored coffees or bubble teas. The company emphasizes ingredients made fresh daily, and drinks that should be consumed within one hour of purchase to maximize benefit from that freshness. As a result, Yomie's has a higher quality and wider selection of yogurt drinks compared to most other coffee and bubble tea chains, which typically offer 3 or 4 yogurt drink flavors. Drinks We've Tried: - Purple Rice Yogurt Drink (有米酸奶): Yomie's namesake drink (in Chinese, anyway) shows off the slightly sweet, slightly tart yogurt that underlies most of the menu. The yogurt is viscous (i.e., thick for a liquid). The purple rice in the drink is chewy but flavorless. Yomie's Downtown Flushing location does a better version of the drink than the debut Elmhurst location. The former has more purple rice, albeit slightly harder and in smaller bits, but this makes for more rice and chewiness in every sip -- and there's no chance of gagging as with the Elmhurst version. - Red Bean Oats Yogurt (小时候红豆燕麦酸奶): this drink is even thicker than the Purple Rice Yogurt drink and could be a light meal replacement. The sweetness of the red beans and grit of the oats doesn't quite pair with the liquid tartness of the yogurt, but the drink seems representative of East Asian tastes. - Mango Yogurt (芒果用酸奶): We couldn't try the Melon Yogurt due to seasonal availability of the fruit, so we tried the Mango Yogurt instead. The mango was a little stringy and added to the tartness of the yogurt, but letting the drink sit for a while seemed to mellow the tartness. Since different types of mangos are in season during different parts of the year, I'm curious if this might affect the availability of this drink, or cause seasonal variations in taste. Overall: Very Good (4 of 5). Yomie's Rice X Yogurt's drinks and smoothies are interesting alternatives in a market saturated with coffee and bubble tea chains. Definitely visit for an introduction to this drink category, and follow along to see how Yomie's evolves its drink menu for the local market. Other: - Yomie's Elmhurst and Downtown Flushing locations are operated by unrelated entities. While they share a core menu, the two locations seem to execute slightly differently and seem free to develop their own drinks. - Read more about the benefits of purple rice yogurt drinks here: https://internationalfrozenyogurt.com/news/now-trending-purple-rice-yogurt-drinks/
What a delightful experience Yomie's Rice X Yogurt was and I hope to see them really kick of the yogurt drink craze in the states! Purple rice yogurt shakes are trendy drinks in Asia and Australia, known as a healthier and more filling alternative to bubble tea. Not only is the yogurt freshly made, but the various colorful drinks are made without artificial flavors or colorings Purple rice (also known as black rice) is a slightly nutty and almost sweet rice with a good chewy texture. It's nutritious and a good source of energy (far lower GI than brown rice!), and has the benefits of being filled with antioxidants (the purple hue comes from anthocyanin), iron, fiber, zinc, and protein! You've probably been offered or had the option for this type of rice if you've been to a sit down Korean restaurant. I can see these shakes also being great on the go when there's little time to sit and eat, such as on a drive or for lunch while working remotely in front of a laptop. I especially like the fruit-based drinks - make sure you don't come in too late if you're picky, because when they run out of something, they're out for the day! I tried the passion fruit, dragon fruit, and mango and they were all delicious. If there's anything I'd like changed, I'd say I wish the passion fruit was blended a bit better as that drink was particularly chunky - but I suppose plenty of people love having texture of fresh fruits in their yogurt drink. The staff was super friendly, even though the place was packed and busy. It's amazing how quickly they work and it's refreshing to see a team that cares! 100% recommend a try and make sure you bring a friend or two!
4.5 stars Came here today for their soft opening and was pleasantly surprised! Big bubble tea fan over here, but I've never tried a yogurt/ rice drink before. I was definitely a little hesitant because I'm not a huuuge fan of yogurt. My bf and I decided to get the mango yogurt drink and the melon melon- the worker told us that the melon wasn't in season right now and suggested we try the red dragon fruit! Vicky (I think she's the owner/ manager) helped us and was super nice!!! She offered to have us try the purple rice yogurt, which was so nice! Also, hellooo they make the yogurt in house and use fresh fruits. I love that places are steering away from using powders and syrups, and going fresh. It makes the drinks way more worth it. I looooved the mango yogurt drink - super smooth and creamy, but not toooo yogurty with the mango flavor which I liked. My bf had the red dragon fruit, which wasn't bad. The fruit was good but the drink def had a stronger yogurt flavor since dragon fruit isn't as creamy. The purple rice yogurt was interesting. I actually really liked the rice and chewing on something. It was a little tooo yogurty for me though. I wouldn't mind having some rice in my mango yogurt drink! Would be cool to have that option. Overall, if you're a fan of smoothies, I think you'd like this place! It's a healthier alternative to the usual bubble teas too. I'll be back soon to try the other flavors or maybe I'll just stick to the mango yogurt haha
This yogurt smoothie spot took me by surprise. I normally don't opt for a yogurt drink because of the yogurt flavor and heavy density, but after giving this place a try, it made me change my opinion on yogurt smoothies. I was drawn here because of the two day promotion they ran. The first few customers can get a free lychee yogurt drink. I thought this would be the time to give it a try. While I was on the line waiting, the big screen menu featuring the Avocado Yogurt Smoothie had me wondering what that tasted like so I ended up ordering the Mango Yogurt Smoothie, Avocado Yogurt Smoothie, Purple Rice and Lychee Yogurt smoothie for my coworkers and I. For toppings you can add purple rice, oats and/or jelly. After splitting the drinks, I ended up with the Mango Yogurt and Lychee Yogurt to try. The Mango Yogurt comes with chunks of mangoes which I really enjoyed. It blends really well with the yogurt flavor. I actually preferred the Lychee yogurt smoothie more because it was sweeter and it may be because I added jelly to it. Now I can't wait to go try the other flavors. In terms of service, there were two people working. The lady at the cash register was friendly. She was patient to explain the menu items when I asked her questions. The other staff was making the majority of the drinks. The line wasn't long but the wait can be a little long because it takes time to make each drink. Totally worth it though!
The yogurt drinks here are definitely a healthier alternative to milk teas! The taste of their yogurt drinks is not like yogurts we usually buy in the grocery store. It's just a bit tart while also creamy and sweet. Lychee drinks seem to be the new addition to their menu since they're in season right now! I think I also saw Mango Pomelo being offered as a flavor too. I decided to try their lychee purple rice yogurt and mango yogurt drinks. Purple rice is definitely interesting as a topping in a drink. It's akin to the oats, something you wouldn't really except in a drink but nonetheless yummy (and makes the drink feel healthier in a way). I think they use fresh lychees to make this drink since the pieces of lychee in my drink had that fresh lychee texture. The mango yogurt drink was just the right amount of sweetness. Make sure to mix it well before drinking as the mango puree sits at the bottom of the cup. It keeps well in the fridge so it'll be okay to enjoy the next day too! Drinking one whole cup was enough to fill me up. I know I'll definitely be back to try out their other flavors!
Was invited to the soft opening and I ended up trying the mango yogurt and the red heart dragon fruit yogurt. I preferred the mango yogurt one because it was sweeter and the fresh mangoes were absolutely delicious in combination. I love the use of rice in the drink (its nothing overpowering, maybe a creamier version of a rice pudding that you can drink)! It seems like it would be good to drink this as a breakfast because it is relatively healthy and very filling. I was overwhelmed that there were so many things on the menu that now I wish I tried their purple rice and their oats yogurt, which I hear are also some of their more popular items. The drinks are on the pricier side but with the amount of fruits and fresh yogurt that they use in the drink, it justifies their price. I'm excited to try their other flavors in the future!

Finally tried @yomiesyogurt and it was pretty good! This drink was very thick and like kefir. The mango flavor was pretty good and paired fairly well with the very thick texture of the yogurt. The service was fast and my drink came out good pretty quickly. Luckily, when I went, it also wasn't very crowded. Check this place out if you want a very thick yogurt drink, that's a lot like Greek yogurt, or even thicker than Greek yogurt. It was a little bit pricey, and a little bit more pricier than the typical cost of drinks around the area. Also it's the year of the snake for 2025, and for 2026, it will be the year of the horse. Price: $8.98 Rating: 8/10 read more

I've been to multiple different locations and this location served me purple rice that wasn't fully cooked. I was extremely disappointed since I normally LOVE purple rice drinks, and I was excited to get a drink for the night. It was likely just maybe the worker that just didn't check to see if the rice was fully cooked, but was not happy I spent money on a drink that made me have to chew uncooked rice. read more

Next Sunday, is the grand opening (Halloween 10/31) and today I caught them doing a soft opening (just started yesterday). They're borderline a hole in the wall, but slightly bigger. Four busy staffs working away as soon as the order is placed. They have a kitchen hiding behind the fabric curtains. This is a family business, but the Elmhurst location isn't the same as this one.. (different owners, different grade of rice and type ) Specialty combing my love for Beijing yogurt and ... rice (yes, way to be Asian lol) "Got rice !" Aka (Yo-Mi) Their specialty is that they make their yogurt in-house, freshly fermented 24 hours prior. And they use fresh "seasonal" fruits, so if it's out of season..... don't dream about it. (Owner mentioned they might come out with a monthly fruit flavor drink....in the works) I did see some especially Asian flavors: red bean, juju bean, haws(hawberry), and purple rice (till sold out or 11am/12pm to 8pm) I asked the staff, it takes 30minutes to cook the rice and then they time the time to let it air cool, (fridge hardens the rice) before it can be mixed with the yogurt. Credit card: no minimum / (Currently, no Venmo, Ali pay or wechat pay) other forms of smart payments available. Grand opening business hours thereafter: 11am to 8pm. They're currently not on any of the major delivery apps yet, but I was told they will be within the month. Beverage Critque: A very unique sensation and experience; The texture feels interesting chewing on the purple rice when sipping a drink (soaked in yogurt keeps it soft but not soggy.) Some softer rice grains feels a little like sticky rice. Their yogurt taste threw me off at first, I thought it contained soy milk or something but was told it doesn't. It will feel filling after you drink this, so if you're easily full....the rice will get you. (Light hint of sweetness) If you have a stronger taste palate and enjoy heavy flavors, this one would taste bland for you. (I recommend the passion fruit one, it won't disappoint. The flavor will punch you in the mouth, and leave your breath fragrant. Sweet and sour, citrusy) The Mango yogurt, the fresh fruit wasn't pureed but in perfect sippable shreds that's straw friendly. It's sweeter, due to the mango being in season. read more
Like yogurt? Tired of the usual bubble tea? Need a healthier alternative? Do not fear, Yomie is here! Their store is located in the heart of Flushing, right between Main St. and Prince St. When I think of a yogurt drink, I usually think of Chobani, Yoplait, Danny, and etc. I was actually a bit scared of trying it because I'm not too much of a fan of those. They're a bit too sour for me. Don't even get me started on Kefir. Oh goodness, just the thought of it makes my whole body shudder. Thankfully, the drinks here are not like that! My friend got Yomie's Purple Rice Yogurt and Straw To My Berry while I got Mango Yogurt and Red Heart Dragon Fruit Yogurt. I was surprised by how light and not too tart the drinks were. It was definitely a pleasant taste and the fruits complimented the drink a lot while adding some sweetness to it. Remember to shake your drink when you receive your order! It will help blend the fruits with the yogurt. The cup also says to consume within an hour for best taste. Yomie's Purple Rice had a nice chewy texture from the rice. This one seemed more traditional because you can taste the yogurt but it was not on the "let-me-close-my-eyes-cause-it's-too-sour" level. If I really wanted to, I can probably devour one drink within a minute or two and that says something. I wonder if it's possible to add purple rice to some of the fruit drinks. I wouldn't mind trying that kind of combination for my own curiosity. They have a friendly staff and an easily accessible location. Be prepared to wait a little when they are busy. It can take about 15-20 minutes sometimes. I would love to come back and try their other flavors like Melon! Melon!, Hawaiian Banananana, and Passion From Miles Away. read more
So I wanted to try out a new yogurt place. I ordered their strawberry yogurt. It was fresh. Personally, the taste was okay. I still think red mango is better. This place is small. No seating. Hard to find parking. But if you come by public transportation, should be fine. The decoration was cute, despite the place being small. I would come back if I was in the area. But definitely not going out of my way to come here. read more

Headed to Yomie's for their soft opening to try rice and yogurt and fruit/yogurt drink combos. If you've been to Asian places, you'll find yogurt drinks, so it's not an entirely new concept, but the way Yomie's puts it together is a fantastic idea. We went for the mango yogurt and the purple rice yogurt. The yogurt is creamy and leaves a nice mouth-feel, and most importantly, it doesn't have that weird tangy flavor you can sometimes get. Mixed in with the super fresh mango, I'm already a fan! I didn't think I'd like the purple rice yogurt as much, but it's pretty good! The texture of the rice is perfect - not too soft like rice pudding and not too hard like... well, rice grains. Flavor profile is slightly nutty. Both drinks tasted great! I usually get my bobas with 25%-50% sugar and these were on par with what's acceptable to my taste buds. These are also a healthier alternative to bobas but totally hit the spot when you're looking for something to drink/snack on. I'll be back for the melon yogurt, avocado yogurt, and salted egg yogurt. Those were already sold out for the day so I'm even more intrigued! Head to Yomie's if you love yogurt, want to lose weight and be/feel healthier from all those boba drinks, try something new, or all of the above! I literally just drank 1.5 cups (sorry friend) and I'm not mad about it because my waist line is still intact. read more
This was my first time trying a purple rice drink. It was an interesting experience. I got the Mango Yogurt and the Purple Rice Yogurt. The cup says you have it's best to drink the beverage within an hour. I drank the drinks in a span of 3 hours. It was not too bad but it is better to drink it within an hour. The rice started to clump. The mango was fine even after 3 hours. The mango yogurt was my favorite. It reminded me of a Mango Lassi. It was a good dessert after a meal. Just what I needed. it wasn't too sweet. It had a good balance between sweet and tart. The purple rice felt like it can be a meal itself - very filling! That's why it took me so long to finish it. It reminds me of a cold Hong Kong sweet soup (Tong Sui). Both drinks were pretty thick. I would come here again and tried their other drinks. read more
This is a rather unique drink shop and I believe judging by their website that they are based in Indonesia. This was the first location I tried but there appears to be a few others including a newer one I noticed in Manhattan's Chinatown so it's nice to see that they're expanding. They specialize in yogurt blends with a variety of fruits and other mixes. Their specialty is the Purple Rice Yogurt Drink or 有米酸奶 which was the first thing I ever ordered here. It had a very nice sourness with the purple rice adding a wonderful nuttiness. I personally love forbidden rice and this was a good use of it. The drink is pretty filling and I believe that it could be a substitute for a meal or just a pretty hearty snack. The drink was around $6.50 I believe. I was going to get the jujube but they were out of it and I decided to go with the lychee the other time. There were bits of lychee inside and it had a pleasant sourness as well but I would say I preferred the other version. Still very tasty. The prices are a bit high compared to some of the other spots nearby but this is a nice twist on the usual drink you find in the area. It might be small but it's filling and quite tasty. Mid/low 4. read more

Delicious, filling, satisfies sweet tooth, AND healthier than bubble tea! Don't get me wrong i love me some bubble tea but that is often too sweet, or bubbles not cooked right, and really just plain unhealthy. Enter: this smoothie concoction of yogurt and healthy rice/grains. So many flavors to choose from and each was fresh, and refreshing. If I had to offer my young kids a sweet treat/drink while in Flushing, I would opt for this over other sugary drinks. Each drink tasted fresh, icy-but-not-too-icy, and the yogurt and rice with fruit was a lovely surprise of flavors. Try them next time you're in Flushing! read more
Not a fan of boba but was looking for a cold drink with Asian flavors, so this seemed like a good place to try. I felt like the purple rice worked well with the yogurt blended together. We chose the lychee flavor and was pleasantly surprised by how they used real lychee in it rather than syrup. Not sure if I'd ever crave the drink but def worth a try if you're in the area! read more
Theres a new drink in town and its definitely a must try. Last week I was invited to stop by with a few friends to give this spot a try and I certainly did not leave disappointed. I love yogurt in every shape and form and was super excited to hear a store specializing it was opening up in my area. The inside of the store is small and very bright. They have this huge grass decor piece on their wall that made the place pop and is super cute for taking pictures with. The staff were all extremely welcoming and helpful with their recommendations. You could tell they were super excited and proud for all to try their drinks. As for their drinks we ordered: - Mango Yogurt (5/5): I love mango. I love yogurt. This combination is a match made in heaven and perfect for me. I love that you can see real mango and not just some artificial flavoring. The drink had mango blended in as well as small chunks of it. The yogurt is very subtle not too sweet or not too tangy just how I like it. It was super creamy and at the same time refreshing. Loved this one, a must try! -Yomie's Purple Rice Yogurt (5/5): How do you just go to Yomies Rice x Yogurt and not try this? We had to. This was actually a fan favorite amongst all my friends. The rice texture is similar to rice pudding, its soft with a bit of chew still and not mushy at all. The yogurt was mellow and added a smidge of sweet which is perfect. Tasted very clean. Highly recommend! -Straw to my berry (5/5): I am not a huge fan of strawberry items mostly because it either tastes are artificially sweet or too sour. I was hesitant to try this but my friends wanted to so I went for it. It was actually surprisingly very good! The strawberry wasn't sour at all and it didn't taste too sweet either. It very much reminded me of a strawberry banana smoothie without the strong banana taste. (I don't think theres banana in it even). Hawaiian Banananana (4/5): This may have been my least favorite, but mostly because I am not a huge fan of banana products LOL. All my friends loved this one and couldn't stop raving about it so for those who love bananas give this one a shot :). There is also pineapple in it? But I couldn't tell because the banana was too much for me personally. Banana lovers, this one's for you! Overall, this quaint shop does not disappoint one bit. Put this on your flushing must eats list because it is certainly a must try. The price ranges from 5-6$ per drink and they give a lot so it could double as a light snack. Highly recommend! read more
Purple Rice in yogurt? Sounds weird right? But try it before you make that face. I see your face right now. It's an interesting combo. It's not overly sweet and the rice provides an interesting texture. I guess this is for people who don't want boba, or jelly or pudding, or the stuff Flushing already has. The yogurt does give you a sour taste but it works with the rice and everything. The oat with juju bean is sweet because juju is pretty sweet. The oat adds an interesting texture. It's a bit thick but nothing like concrete milkshakes. They say to consume within an hour so you drink it already! I was there for their soft opening. So they're still working everything out but give them a chance. It's definitely different. read more

Heard about this place opening a location in Flushing so I had to check it out. Never had it before so didn't know what to expect. But, after trying it, it is very good and WORTH A VISIT!! It's a small front area for you to order but the sign is purple and the front is all glass so you can't miss it when you walk by. Here are the things we tried: Purple rice yogurt 5/5: but beware, this is damn near a meal lol. It's thick with the yogurt and purple rice and you have to chew for every slurp, but that's to be expected with rice. Very tasty and not too sweet. Hawaiian banana 5/5: this one is very good. The purple rice is a 5 but this has got to be a 5.5!! I don't love banana but I don't hate it either. I can appreciate when a banana dessert is done right. And they did it right! This one is mixed with a few other flavors that I can't say for certain but it compliments the banana flavor very well and makes for a great dessert! Straw to my berry 4/5: had a few sips of this one but it's good. Nothing too special. Just a nice mix of berry flavors. Simple. Mango yogurt 4/5: also nothing too special. But you can't go wrong with mango. Solid choice read more

If you are familar with Beijing yogurt, i think this is a mixture of rice water (wash your rice and the water your pour down on the first rinse) and Beijing Yogurt. It is a unique concept but in the back of my head I already knew what this would taste like. There are no tables or inside area to drink your drinks. It is a grab and go, and the prices are about $6-7 each. They have one size. read more
This is my second time trying Yomie's yogurt drinks and you can say in officially hooked! The first I tried the Yomie special purple rice, which is their homemade yogurt blended with purple rice. It was so yummy! I like how it's not too sweet, and it was thick, so it honestly acted like breakfast. The second time I tried Yomie's yogurt with jujube, it was also very good, not too sweet. Overall, I would choose this over milk tea if I'm ever in Flushing, and it's a lot coming from a boba lover who will choose this yogurt over read more

If you want to try a different kind of drink in the Flushing area, don't hesitate to come here! I was able to try this place when it first opened because my girlfriend got invited for its soft opening event. I tried 3 drinks, unfortunately I forgot their names, but 2 of them were basically smoothies (banana, strawberry) and the other one was a rice yogurt drink. We did have to wait for around 15 minutes for our drinks, but we did come during a soft opening, so there were a lot of people. I wasn't a huge fan of the rice yogurt drink but that's just because I don't prefer to have too many things in my beverages; it was actually still really good despite my preference. I really liked the smoothie-like drinks; the texture was really good and it was nice to try something new instead of the typical bubble tea you can find on every street in Flushing. The employees were very friendly and there is a really nice wall and sign to take pictures with! I definitely recommend trying this place out! read more
Decided to check out Yomie's Rice X Yogurt and I have to say I was not disappointed. The drinks were all sweet, but not too sweet and were filling in a way that didn't make me feel bloated. Drinks I ordered: Red Lover Dragon Fruit Yogurt: Absolutely loved this drink and it's my favorite out of all the ones I've tried. The drink itself looks aesthetic and delicious with the vibrant magenta color, but more importantly its taste is amazing, There was a plethora of delicious Dragon Fruit chunks that complimented the yogurt well and it was a creamy and hearty masterpiece. Mango Yogurt: This drink was delicious as well! Plenty of mango chunks just like the previous drink adding texture and sweetness to the tarty yogurt. I recommend this is you're a fan of Mango Lassi. The flavor profiles are similar. The OG Purple Rice Yogurt: This was a unique experience. I've never had rice as a drink topping and I really enjoyed it. The purple rice was chewy adding a different but nonetheless great addition to the yogurt. I was also able to get more of the yogurt flavor profile since the purple rice was neutral in taste. I definitely would get recommend trying this if you like sticky rice desserts. Things to know: Remember to shake your drinks before enjoying them, especially the Red Lover Dragon Fruit. Make sure to consume the Purple Rice Yogurt in an hour. I've left the fruit ones for more than an hour before consumption and thought they still tasted good. Conclusion: I will definitely be returning for these flavors and to try more! read more

Sooo creamy and rich!! My new favorite spot for drinks! I've been getting sick of brown sugar boba so the signature: purple rice and yogurt drink has been a healthier (?) alternative for me. The other drink I tried was the mango yogurt. Mango was a bit sour but mixed with their yogurt it was sweet. I prefer the purple rice and yogurt though ! Definitely want to try the oats yogurt next :) The price for each drink is kinda expensive.. there's only one size in the Xin Fu Tang cup size. It was around $6+ Is still get it again though also they take a while to make it even with a lot of staff inside. read more
