Introduction:Recently, a new way of ordering at Luckin Coffee has gone viral on social media: by selecting the Orange C Americano and adding the note “no coffee liquid,” customers can get a refreshing glass of pure orange juice. This creative ordering hack allows consumers to experience a different flavor for just 9.9 yuan, not only becoming a new way for netizens to get great value, but also sparking discussions about the trend of DIY beverages. This article will detail the steps, actual taste experience, and precautions to help you try it out safely while understanding the backstory behind this “no coffee liquid” craze.
Recently on social media, many netizens have shared a novel way to order at Luckin: when ordering the Orange C Americano, they request in the notes section to “not add coffee liquid,” and end up with a purely fresh orange juice. Many were pleasantly surprised—not only is the taste refreshing, but the price is just 9.9 yuan, making it a high cost-performance choice.
Many who have tried this method reported that although they intended to order coffee, the resulting orange drink turned out surprisingly delicious. Some even chose different flavored “coffee-free” drinks for three days in a row, turning it into a little daily joy. However, some netizens argue that if one simply wants orange juice, buying it from a supermarket might be more economical—for example, at Sam’s Club, you can get 2L of NFC orange juice for 19.9 yuan, and 1L bottles of Huiyuan or Minute Maid are also around ten-plus yuan.
This isn’t the first time consumers have used special notes to create unexpected drinks. Previously, when Luckin launched the Iced Suction Coconut Latte, many visually oriented netizens requested the removal of coffee liquid to capture a more photogenic “pink-blue drink,” with some even calling for the brand to release a coffee-free version. Now, this “no coffee liquid” trend has made a comeback, becoming inspiration for sharing little life hacks.
One netizen shared on social media that she had ordered at Luckin for three consecutive days, each time noting “no coffee liquid,” trying three different flavored drinks—and was pleased with all of them. She even left a message to the brand saying, “The end of coffee is no coffee liquid.” This kind of DIY play not only satisfies the urge to try something new but also lets people explore favorite flavors at minimal cost.Making it a smart choice in the age of 9.9-yuan offerings..

Of course, this self-adjusted beverage combination has also sparked plenty of discussion. Some netizens believe that if the goal is to drink juice, buying it directly may better suit the need; yet other consumers enjoy using this creative ordering method to explore possibilities beyond coffee. However, it’s worth noting that Luckin has not officially launched an “no coffee liquid” version of the Orange C Americano, so whether the adjustment can be successfully made still depends on the store and preparation process. It’s advised to be polite and clearly express your request when ordering to increase the chances of success.
Additionally, someone jokingly asked: “If I order an Americano and note ‘no coffee liquid,’ what would I get in the end?” A netizen humorously replied: “You’ll get a ‘are you okay’ (coffee-free Americano).” Though just a joke, it reflects how deeply this DIY trend has resonated, becoming a new way for young consumers to interact and explore.

In summary, Luckin’s “no coffee liquid” approach is not only a money-saving trick but also showcases consumers’ pursuit of personalized and creative beverages. Whether you want to try new flavors or enjoy fresh fruit taste in a more affordable way, why not try this little ordering hack yourself? It might just add a new twist to your daily coffee moments.
