Vending machines in Singapore have come a long way from simple canned drinks, but this one takes things to a whole new level. The What the Cup! machines, which you can find at locations such as SMU, Thomson Plaza and many more, are equipped to make a whopping 300+ drinks!
When you approach any of these machines, you’ll be greeted with a touchscreen that allows you to choose from their myriad of drinks, and customise it to your liking. Once you’ve made your payment, watch as the machine whips up your drink in a minute or so.
Prices for these drinks start from just $1.50, and they can span anything from a simple cup of espresso to more elaborate concoctions. The latter includes options such as the Thai Tea Cafe Latte (from $3), which combines fragrant Thai milk tea with freshly brewed coffee. Along with many other coffee-based options, this drink can be had hot, cold, or ice-blended.
If you’re into smoothies, be sure to try Strawmilk Smoothie ($3.50). If you’ve got a sweet tooth, this ice-blended rendition of the classic strawberry milkshake is bound to hit the spot.
The Oreo Smoothie Volcano ($6) is another decadent treat you can order at these vending machines. This decadent blend of ice, milk, and Oreo reminded us of a drinkable version of the popular Oreo McFlurry!
The sheer variety of drinks at decent prices makes What the Cup! a great option for a pick-me-up. You can locate your nearest What the Cup! vending machine on their website.
