Grilled MuaJi from Wulai (柠檬山粉圆&拷麻薯)

You can see almost every stall selling this drink, lemon 'shan fen yuan' 柠檬山粉圆 (sorry, really no idea what it is called in English, in fact I have no idea what is it.. hehe) at the Ulay's(乌来) old street. Out of curiosity, we decided to try it out!

it's something like barley but it's rounder.
there is a seed inside, black in color.
and it's tasteless...

Besides selling the drink, this stall also sell grilled muaji. I'm not a fan of 'mua ji' but I've nv seen or tried grilled mua ji before.

There are a few flavors for you to choose. Mua Ji with honey, peanut, sesame, chocolate, condensed milk, brown sugar and etc. You can mix two flavors in one. We don't know which to choose and the person suggested us to try the sesame + peanut.

Sesame + peanut mua ji (拷麻薯)

How it taste? It taste quite nice, not too sweet, just nice. It's definitely tastier than those we had here (mua ji + peanut). The mua ji + drinks costs nt 60 (approx Rm 7.2), not cheap but I think it's worth to try!!
