While the Portland State University location has shuttered and been replaced, the original Bubble N Tea is still busy coming out with stellar new drinks. The newest summer offering here is the ube mango, an unusual combo of ube milk tea and real mango that’s silky and delightful. For folks who are looking for something that’s not on the creamy side, the strawberry jasmine iced tea will not disappoint.

Tiger Sugar is a Taiwanese franchise that’s world-famous for its black sugar-based beverages. The Beaverton location features two standout summer options: The Strawberry Mochi and the Mango Sago. The Strawberry Mochi is a sweet and creamy strawberry milk tea that’s taken to a new level with the addition of chewy liquid mochi. The mango sago is an ultra-refreshing mango smoothie chock full of toppings that lend different textures with each sip. Sip either while walking around the nearby Beaverton Creek Wetlands.

While the food will always be the star of the show at Tito’s, the drinks here are showstoppers in their own right. Aguas frescas are easy to make, but often are too sweet or overly diluted; Tito’s successfully balances the fruit, sugar, and water ratios in the cart’s aguas frescas. The hibiscus tea here is consistently available, while the fresh fruit aguas rotate often. Expect flavors such as watermelon, cucumber, cantaloupe, mango, or pineapple.

Yomi’s yogurt smoothies have finally arrived in Portland. This international franchise is well-known for its tangy yogurt smoothies with different fruits and grains mixed in. The summer stunners here are the fresh fruit smoothies, particularly the peach, melon, and durian ones. Those wanting non-fruit options can opt for the original with purple rice or the red bean smoothie.

While Tea Bar is known for its exceptional boba and other teas, the new summer drink menu this year is a game-changer. Tea Bar now offers different fruit drinks made with mango, guava, or raspberry puree. The sparkling coconut with mango is an ideal summer combination, while the guava jasmine tea fruit boba is a more floral blend of fruit and honey boba.

Located on North Williams, Lua serves a massive variety of Vietnamese standards, including fish sauce wings, gỏi cuốn (or salad rolls), and bún. And while Vietnamese egg coffee might not come to mind as a summer drink, the one here is different. Bold, dark roast espresso arrives over a mountain of pebble ice, topped with creamy salted egg custard — the earthy flavor of the coffee is well complemented by the custard, making this the under-the-radar drink of the summer. Those who don’t drink coffee should get a thirst-quenching lychee mojito jasmine tea.

After a brief hiatus, Rose + Lincoln has relocated as a pop-up in the former Kure space on Southeast Yamhill. The current menu features two excellent new summer drinks. The first is the Strawberry Rainbow, a refreshing blend of strawberry, peach, lemonade, and coconut. The second is the Tropic Like Its Hot, a spicy summer smoothie made with mango, banana, pineapple, POG, chili mango, and Tajin. Both are incredibly refreshing and come in 20oz sizes for long-term consumption.

As Portland’s ubiquitous tea company, it’s no surprise that Smith Teamaker makes excellent iced teas. The best summer drinks here aren’t the standard iced teas, however; check what’s on tap for the real liquid gold. The sparkling strawberry honeybush is effervescent, sweet, fruity, and the true embodiment of summer in tea form. The nitro chai is on the entirely opposite side of the spectrum, offering a cold and luscious spiced chai experience.

Southeast’s vegan destination Fermenter is known for its jaw-dropping sandwiches and bowls, which inevitably overshadow some of the smaller gems on the menu. However, the strawberry kombucha slushie is one that truly deserves its own spotlight. This beverage hits the ideal balance of refreshing summer slushie and bubbly kombucha, fruit-forward and sweet with just a hint of acidity and funk.

This Northeast destination for tropical cocktails and delicious Latin American foods is already distinguished for its picturesque piña coladas. The true summer move here is to order this piña colada with no booze and its pineapple shell to-go. The drink comes separate from the shell for ease of transportation, so you can take it to your destination and pour it in when you’re ready to consume your liquid tropical vibes.

Located on the street-facing side of the Portland Mercado, Xocotl serves a variety of fruit drinks and produce-heavy meals with a Latin American twist. While Xocotl has many great cold drink options, the Chamoyada and C3-KO smoothies are the two that truly embody summer. The Chamoyada combines mango and pineapple with lime, Tajin, and a house-made chamoy sauce. The C3-KO is a similar drink, swapping fresh-squeezed orange juice for the chamoy. Add some soursop or passionfruit to the C3-KO to level up your smoothie.
