Ma Juicy

Ma Juicy is the place that you would want to try new and coming back for more. Lots of options and you might want to try all of them out. From drinks to many dessert.

Every time I entered Today’s Plaza, my attention always went straight to the crowd magnets near the entrance: on the right, the ever-popular Vietnamese coffee joints Bake & Che and Da Vien Coffee, and on the left, the traditional dessert spot Thạch Chè Hiển Khánh Dessert House, which always have people spilling out the front. But this time, just about 50 meters straight in, I spotted a new-looking Vietnamese drink shop that I hadn’t noticed before — Ma’ Juicy! 📍 9651 Bolsa Ave Suite A, Westminster, CA 92683 What really caught my eye? A sign outside advertising A perfect pair looks like Chinese -style sesame flatbreads (shao bing) and youtiao (fried dough sticks) to me which are not something I usually see at a Vietnamese tea shop. The interior looked super clean and well-kept. After some quick Googling, they have other locations too so I decided to check it out. But then came the menu struggle because everything on the little table menu was written entirely in Vietnamese, and while there was an electronic screen with English menu, the font was too tiny for us to read (forgot to bring the glasses) so I just went with the classic method: ask directly. I pointed to the perfect pair I saw on the sign outside and the staff told me they also had freshly made soy milk today, and even poured us a small cup to try. It was pretty decent! But the sesame bread on display didn’t look super appealing, so I passed on that. Then I asked if they had egg coffee, and they said they actually don’t sell coffee drinks here. I noticed this green drink labeled “#6” on the screen and asked what it was. Again, they poured us a sample — it had that earthy, healthy flavor because it had pennywort (rau má) in it! Here’s what we ended up ordering: #6: Rau má đậu xanh sữa dừa – $7.90 Pennywort + mung bean + coconut milk + pandan jelly) #31: Ceremonial Matcha Latte – $6.50 This was the only thing I could read on the screen so I went for it. We can customize the sugar and ice levels, which is always a plus. The staff was really friendly and patient. The interior design is chic with cozy vibe and good spacing between tables (love that!). Even the bathroom was clean with passcode needed. Overall, a solid new find! Might come back again to try other drinks.

This is the third time I ordered that get me the same thing. I ordered Pennywort with durian and pandan jelly. I brought it home and tried it in the evening. Rau Má is fine but the durian sauce is no longer good. The last two time I thought it because of the weather, but it still happen now. Kinda very disappointed. The store and customer service is nice but drink is not good condition. (Bought 2 for my mom as well and now has to throw away)

While waiting for my lash appointment, I spotted this store and decided to give it a try. Right off the bat, I was impressed by how cozy, cute, and clean the space was. I ordered the number 7, which is the Pennywort Juice with Mungbean, Coconut Milk, Pandan Jelly, and Coconut Pudding. I absolutely loved the drink! I chose the default sweetness level (75%), and it was perfect for my taste. It’s the first place I’ve found that lets you adjust the sweetness in pennywort juice—usually, this is only an option for boba drinks. If you’re unsure of your preferred sweetness level, they even offer a sample cup so you can find the right balance. The toppings—pandan jelly and coconut pudding—added a delightful extra layer of flavor to the drink. The service was friendly, and there’s plenty of parking since the store is located in a large complex. I’m definitely looking forward to coming back to try more drinks!

I was in Westminster the other day and super thirsty, so I decided to try something new. Ma Juicy caught my eye--they specialize in pennywort drinks, which sounded healthy but I wasn't sure how it'd taste. Turns out it's actually pretty good! I got the #5 Pennywort Juice with Mung Bean and the #14 P Mix with Milk Foam, Pandan, and Chia Seeds. Both were refreshing. Pennywort reminds me a little bit of grass jelly, but not overpowering at all (definitely not like wheatgrass). Now that l've tried it, I'll definitely be back for more. If you're curious about pennywort, this place is worth checking out!
