3 Reasons to Try Nine Fresh

by - August 15, 2021

Now that most of us are glued to our homes, our cravings for food just intensifies. And if you are looking for a dessert that is refreshing and loaded with toppings, then Nine Fresh is a must-try. 

Nine Fresh is a popular Singapore dessert chain that offers Jiufen-inspired dessert bowls. It first came to the Philippines in February 2020 and now has branches located in SM Manila, SM Fairview, SM Southmall, SM San Lazaro, and SM North. A few weeks back, I was able to visit their branch in SM North and I have rounded up 3 reasons why you have to try Nine Fresh.

Refreshing and filling dessert
All Nine Fresh dessert bowls are made of fresh ingredients that are prepared daily to make sure that you only get the best in every cup. Each dessert bowl is overflowing with ingredients like black pearls, beans, pearl jellies, and chewy taro balls that come in 4 flavors — sweet potato, purple yam, matcha, and ube.


Reasonably priced 
One of the ways to get customers coming is to offer something delicious yet affordable and Nine Fresh definitely offers both. A dessert cup costs between PHP95-PHP125. For my small appetite, this cup can be shared. But even if you consume it by yourself, this price range is very affordable. 


Various desserts bowls 
One of the things I liked about Nine Fresh is that it comes with 3 different dessert bases to suit every taste bud.
1 ) Bean Curd-made from freshly-grounded soya bean that is similar to our favorite childhood street food, taho.
2 ) Grass Jelly-similar to our local gulaman
3 ) Ai-Yu Jelly-made from the seeds of fig fruits that is lightly sweetened with black sugar-laden.

Nine Fresh also offers a myriad of toppings that can add taste and color to your dessert bowls. Choices include black pearls, soft or roasted peanuts, lotus nuts, barley, red beans, green beans, pinto beans, eight treasure beans, sweet potatoes, yams, konjac jellies, black sugar jellies, aloe very pearl jellies, mango pearl jellies, lychee pearl jellies, passionfruit pearly jellies, grape pearly jellies and many more.

If you are about adventurous, you can also create your own bowl. Just choose your dessert base and add in all the toppings you like. Whatever combination you have, it will surely be a refreshing dessert bowl oozing with so much flavor and color.

Here are my personal favorites:

Nine Fresh Signature PHP115
- made of bean curd, grass jelly, red bean, green bean, pinto bean, peanuts, and taro balls. The beans and nuts goes well with the bean curd. 

Black Pearl Ai-Yu Special PHP120
– made with ai-yu jelly, red bean, black pearls, taro balls, and milk cup. The chewy black petals and savory taro balls are the bomb!

Fruity Ai-Yu Jelly PHP125
– contains ai-yu jelly, aloe vera pearl jelly, mango pearl jelly, konjac jelly, taro balls, and milk cup. This is one refreshing cup for all those who love fruity flavors. 

Bubblicious Ai-Yu Jelly PHP125
– loaded with ai-yu jelly, lychee pearl jelly, passion fruit pearl jelly, black sugar jelly dice, taro balls, and milk cup. I love lychee and it tastes good with the ai-yu jelly and black sugar jelly. 

Aside from these delicious dessert bowls, Nine Fresh also offers freshly brewed tea. Choose from Red Tea, Jasmine Green Tea, Jasmine Oolong Tea, Earl Grey Tea, Milk Tea, and Earl Grey Milk Tea that ranges from PHP60-PHP90 and comes in medium and large.
