Not Drinking Coffee? Non-Coffee Drinks at Badadang Cheongsapo

If the rest of your group wants coffee but you do not, Badadang still has several non-coffee drinks to consider, including fruit ades, omija and maesil juices, and peach iced tea. However, “non-coffee” does not automatically mean caffeine-free, low-sugar, or suitable for every allergy. Start with the flavor and texture you want, then ask before ordering if ingredients or options matter to you.

At Badadang Haeundae Cheongsapo, we offer a range of drinks so people with different preferences can sit together and choose separately. This guide is not making health claims about any drink; it is simply a practical way to narrow down the menu.

What non-coffee drinks are available?

For something sparkling, consider the grapefruit, lemon, green grape, or passion fruit ade. In Korea, an “ade” is generally a sparkling fruit drink. Choosing the fruit flavor you prefer is the quickest way to narrow down these options. The selection and availability shown on the menu at the café on the day of your visit will be the most current.

If you would rather skip the fizz, look at the omija (schisandra berry) juice, maesil (green plum) juice, or peach iced tea. A drink name alone cannot confirm its sugar, caffeine, or complete ingredient content. If you need to avoid a specific ingredient, please ask our staff about that item before ordering.

How should I choose between an ade, juice, and iced tea?

Choose an ade when you want a crisp, fizzy fruit drink. Consider omija or maesil juice when you want a fruit-based option without carbonation, or peach iced tea when you prefer a familiar chilled tea drink. There is no single best choice: deciding whether you want bubbles, a particular fruit flavor, or iced tea will make the choice easier.

If your group is also having dessert, choose your drink first and then check the desserts available in the display that day. We do not present one non-coffee drink and dessert pairing as the correct answer. Sweetness preferences and appetites vary, so it is often easier to settle on one item first and add the other afterward.

When ordering several drinks, say the fruit flavor of each ade and the iced tea option clearly rather than shortening the names. Even when two items are fruit-based, an ade and a juice are different menu items. Reviewing the order before payment can help make sure each person receives the drink they intended to order. Writing down everyone’s choices in advance can also save time at the counter.

Which drink has a zero option?

The current menu information lists peach iced tea in regular and zero versions. This does not mean the same option is available for every ade or juice. If you need exact ingredient or nutrition information for the zero version, please ask before ordering rather than relying on the name alone.

A “zero” label by itself does not confirm that a drink will meet every dietary need. If sugar, sweeteners, caffeine, or another ingredient is important to you, tell the staff exactly what you need to avoid so they can share the information currently available.

Crunchy chocolate latte, pistachio latte, sweet potato latte, and strawberry latte may also look like possible non-coffee choices on the menu. The word “latte,” however, does not by itself confirm whether a drink contains espresso or caffeine. If you are avoiding coffee for a specific reason, check the composition of the individual drink before ordering.

What should I check before ordering?

First, confirm that the drink you want is available that day. Second, mention any ingredients you need to avoid, such as milk, fruit, or sweeteners, before the order is placed. Third, if your goal is to avoid caffeine, do not assume that every drink without coffee in its name is caffeine-free; ask about the specific item.

Badadang’s menu may change with the season and daily preparation. Before visiting, review the Badadang menu information, and use the current menu at the café when making your final choice. You can check the location and route on Google Maps.
