Quarantine Project: 5 Yummy DIY Drinks, As Seen on TikTok

As the past ECQs have taught us, one of the best ways to make the most of our time spent at home—and to enjoy, too—is to get busy in the kitchen. (Remember the Dalgona days?) But if you’re way past the coffee and foodie trends of 2020, don’t worry. Thanks to TikTok, there’s no shortage of new and creative recipes of DIY drinks that you can try at home, especially now that we can’t head down to our favorite cafés just yet. 

Curious? Below, check out five delish and easy-to-make drink recipes from the folks of TikTok, guaranteed to brighten up your days even while in quarantine. Of course, on days when you just want instant satisfaction, you can simply order your favorite drinks online via the SM Malls Online app. Don’t forget to check out awesome beverage deals (and more!) at SMDeals.com for extra bang for your buck. 

Oreo Milo Dinosaur Shake 

If you have a crazy sweet tooth, you should definitely try making this cold concoction at home! All you need are milk, Oreo, Milo, and ice, but if you want to enhance the flavor and recreate that made-in-the-café look, you can also drizzle some chocolate syrup inside your serving glass before pouring the chocolatey shake.

Tired of your usual Yakult Soju recipe? Simply add Melona into the mix and your favorite Korean cocktail will never be the same again. In this TikTok, content creator Faye Balogo experiments with the ice cream bar’s honeydew melon variant and fills the glass with original Jinro soju, Sprite, and two bottles of Yakult in equal parts. But you can try mixing and matching different Melona and soju flavors, too! Have this drink for a chill evening at home or to enjoy during virtual hangouts with friends and family.

Love Harry Potter and coffee? Enjoy the best of both worlds through this dreamy drink that’s creamy, sweet, and salty at the same time. For a nice, foamy consistency, use an electric milk frother or whisk, such as this Aeroccino from Nespresso. No espresso machine? Simply add instant espresso or hot strong coffee as the base. For the syrup, you can use toffee or caramel as an alternative if butterscotch isn’t available.
