## In short

Ugly Tongue is a health smoothie café on Haedoji-ro in Yeonsu-gu, Songdo, Incheon. The writer ordered the 15,000-won diet smoothie and a 5,000-won Americano at Ugly Tongue, watched every ingredient being weighed out on a scale, and drank both on a bench in the park right next door. The fruit smoothie is barely sweet at all, and while the price is steep, Ugly Tongue is worth one visit for anyone who eats with health in mind.

## How to find Ugly Tongue: look for the sky-blue sign

Ugly Tongue is a smoothie café at 160-14 Haedoji-ro, Unit 109, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon. The sign is in English, so it's easier to find if you keep an eye out for the sky-blue color.

Since the sign is in English, it's easier to find if you're looking for that sky-blue color.
It says they only use microplastic-free eco-friendly containers.
So no need to worry about harmful substances.

Drinking it boosts your immunity... oh.
I guess they can confidently put that on the sandwich board because they use healthy ingredients?

They also sell tea bags.

## Why one smoothie costs 15,000 won: every ingredient weighed on a scale

Ugly Tongue's smoothies cost around ₩15,000 because most of the ingredients are health foods and there are many kinds involved. It also takes a bit longer to make than a regular smoothie — about 5 minutes.

![Various ingredients used to make the smoothies](https://img.superchart.com/images/songdo-ugly-tongue-scaled-smoothie-price/songdo-ugly-tongue-scaled-smoothie-price-14-j2pli-900.webp)

I wondered why the price was so high — turns out most of the ingredients are health foods.
And there are so~ many kinds of ingredients.
Because one smoothie has so many ingredients, making it takes a bit longer than a normal smoothie.
(Still just 5 minutes though, so it's not boring.)

At a regular café, a smoothie is just ice, frozen fruit, and sugar blended together in a flash.
But at Ugly Tongue, they combine all those many ingredients one by one, measuring them on a scale.
The golden-ratio smoothie really exists.

## How do the 15,000-won diet smoothie and 5,000-won Americano taste?

Ugly Tongue's Diet Smoothie is a ₩15,000 menu item with banana, blueberry, fig, lemon, coconut water, maple syrup, and kale. The Americano is ₩5,000, and the smoothie tasted slightly tart with little sweetness — a healthy fruit smoothie flavor.

The Diet Smoothie has banana, blueberry, fig, lemon, coconut water, maple syrup, and kale.
Apparently it helps lower cholesterol.
Since it's all health food, it should be good for you.

There's a park right next to Ugly Tongue, so it's nice to sit for a bit and drink there.
The flavor is slightly tart with little sweetness — a healthy fruit smoothie taste.
Not sweet, so it was easy to drink through.
They say this is a must-try smoothie spot in Songdo — the price is a bit steep, but since it's not very sweet, it's fine.
