    Sugar cane juice vendors are a common sight across Cambodia, their manual or electric presses crushing stalks of sugar cane into sweet, pale green juice. Served over ice with a squeeze of calamansi lime, it's incredibly refreshing and natural. The juice tastes grassy, sweet, and slightly mineral. At $0.25-0.50 a glass, it's one of the cheapest and most refreshing drinks in the country.
