When I first came to China, Slurpee's never crossed my mind as something that I would miss from Canada, but when I got off the plane to 38 deg C, extremely humid weather I quickly found myself craving one. Fortunately, I was pleasently surprised to find that not only is there a 7-11 every 5-10 blocks here, but they also have Slurpee's. I couldn't believe it considering I had been to England, Ireland, and Scotland and don't remember seeing any there.
There's usually only two choices, but one is always Coke so it's never too disapointing. Others I've seen are Orange (good stuff), Mango (love the fruit, hate the Slurpee) and Strawberry (not so good). They don't taste like the Alberta slurps though, but probably more like the American ones from the sound of it. Really fluffy and the cup is 3" lower by the time you leave the store. Gotta really tap that cup to get all the air out.
...Now if only we could score a Timmy's here...Mmmmm, Ice Caps. (drooling ensues)
