The little tart shop on Neil Street has more than just tarts. New to Tasty Tart’s menu, you can find cloud drinks and premium iced teas. The regular menu has milk teas, hot teas, coffee, and cafe au lait.
I stopped by to try the new strawberry cloud drink ($4.49) from Tasty Tart. You can order online, order by phone by calling 331-303-2477, or stop in to the shop. When I picked up my order, I saw that the staff wrote a sweet message on my cup.

My strawberry iced drink was a beautifully swirled drink. It was milky and cold like strawberry milk. Refreshing on a hot day, this strawberry cloud was tasted fruity, smooth, and so tasty. There were little strawberry seeds in the strawberry syrup, and there were a few sliced strawberries in the drink as well.
The drinks are totally customizable which I really liked. You have a choice of how much ice you’d like: regular, less, or none. Also, you can choose your sweetness level: 100%, 70%, 50%, 30%, or 0%. For my cloud drink, I picked regular ice with 70% sweetness, and I thought it was awesome. I like sweet, but also I’m an adult, so should I really have all the sugar? The 70% was a great option and very enjoyable.
