Nothing says Tuesday morning like a mysteriously chunky, not entirely disappointing $2 pineapple cold brew. At least not if you're close to a Luckin Coffee, the Chinese chain that has overtaken Starbucks in China and opened its first two US locations this week in Manhattan. The brand aims to lure customers in with low prices and consistent promos. BI’s Alice Tecotzky visited the Greenwich Village location on Tuesday morning. All ordering happens on the app, which she quickly downloaded before hopping on the subway. The prices were maybe more surprising than the flavors — because of an opening promo, every drink cost just $1.99. Tecotzky went with the pineapple cold brew and a "solar breeze," which is a mix of blood orange and grapefruit flavors. Click the link in our bio to read more about the experience.
