6 Sweet Treats For Your Sweetheart This Valentine’s Day
Bid farewell to the typical supermarket-bought chocolates and pick up something different this year
It’s customary to give your loved ones chocolate on Valentine’s Day as a symbol of attraction and affection. Much lesser known, though, is chocolate’s historic identity as an aphrodisiac – a food or substance that increases sexual desire by stimulating the release of endorphins.
While chocolate remains the mainstay of the February 14th traditions, other sugary desserts have also come to be a part of Valentine’s Day as much as flowers have, aside from roses. It’s also a foolproof gift if there’s still a lot to learn about your partner, or if you have exhausted their wishlist after years and years of being together.
Here are six lovely treats to represent the sweet and fulfilling romance to come!
Odds are one – if not both – you and your beau are bubble tea lovers. If so, you would know Milksha, a popular Taiwanese bubble milk tea chain that’s made its way into Singapore sometime last year.
In celebration of Valentine’s Day, they’ve rolled out a limited edition drink called ‘First Love’. In a swirl of lightly roasted premium green tea leaves and hints of Taiwanese strawberry and calamansi, it’s at once sweet, smooth and sour!
Drinks are available from 9 February to 14 February 2020. Lovebirds can get two drinks for just $8 (terms and conditions apply).
Milksha will also be giving out disinfectant in view of the shortage of supplies due to the novel coronavirus. Everybody is entitled to 50 ml of disinfectant, no strings attached, as long as they have an opaque bottle to fill up the disinfectant in. This is to prevent the sunlight from breaking the chemical down. You can collect the disinfectant at the following times, at:
