Origins

Chanh muối, literally "salted lemon", is rooted in Vietnamese street and café culture, where preserved lemons are mixed with water, ice, and salt to make a cooling drink that balances acidity, salinity, and sweetness. The Lucky Ox spent years developing a shelf-stable version using preserved lemon extract to replicate that distinctive fermented-citrus depth.

Taste: Citrusy, Sweet, Salty.
