Bubble tea shops are ubiquitous in Taipei, and it should be the place with the most densely opened shops in the world.
From the residence, there are 8 hand-cranked beverage shops on the street less than 100 meters away: Ruguo, Liji, Qingxin Fuquan, Zheri, LEWAY, 50 Lan, Dayuanzi, and Kebu. Going a little farther, there are Mikexia, Comebuy, Yifang and so on.
For a milk tea fanatic like me, staying in Taipei feels like drinking two cups a day is not enough.
When I arrived in Taipei, I received a special gift as soon as I landed - the "Milk Tea Passport" issued by the 2019 Taiwan Milk Tea Festival.
The "Milk Tea Passport" contains 50 drink coupons from 28 hand-cranked beverage shops in the greater Taipei area.
A book costs NT$399 (approximately RMB 91), and an average cup is less than NT$10 (approximately RMB 2), which is super cost-effective. If you have friends who love milk tea to play, a few people to play or stay for a long time, you can search in advance to see if there are other similar activities, it is quite a deal!
1. Zhe Ri Ji Ji Bo Bo Tea 5 points of sugar less ice 🌟🌟
A newly opened milk tea shop, because during the trial operation period, buy one get one free, I chose it as the first cup back to Taiwan
The menu design and store decoration are quite special, simple gray decoration and a lot of cartoon villains
A lion dance head is designed next to the food intake, you can put drinks in it to take pictures, and the gift bag is also very cute.
The taste of milk tea is ordinary, after the ice cubes melt (less ice), the taste is a bit bland. The pearl is quite disappointing, it has no chewiness and feels soft.
2. Lee Kee Black Tea Iced Soy Milk Black Tea 5 Minutes of Sugar De-iced 🌟🌟🌟
One night, I ran out to buy salted crispy chicken. There was a roadside stall next to it. The cheap big cup was super cost-effective.
I remember that it is about NT$20~75 (RMB 4~15)
The taste is the most simple and rustic, without any other fancy gimmicks, it feels like going back to childhood when you drink it
3. Yiyang Winter Melon Fresh Milk with Pearl 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Aiwen Mango Smoothie 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I also passed by on a whim and ran in to buy two cups. I thought the shop was small and there were no seats.
Unexpectedly, the seat is hidden in the back, and you need to walk in from the side path. I remember that it seems to be able to shoot darts inside
In addition to drinks, there are also cakes and desserts, which is a good place to take a break after playing in the afternoon
The flavor of winter melon blends well with fresh milk, and the sweetness of winter melon makes it refreshing! Pearls are also very bite, overall good
summer = mango season
This smoothie surprised me, the smoothie is very rich, I want to eat iced mango pulp in every bite
The famous Aiwen mango is used, which is very sweet and not sour
4. Europa replica red milk tea 🌟🌟🌟
"We created a cup of unique milk tea just to meet you in this vast universe."
There is a big moon lamp hanging at the door of the store, the concept of the whole store is a sense of the universe~
Re-engraved red milk tea is a must-drink sign in the store. It is roasted with black fragrant red, which is the base of Assam seat with charcoal roasting aroma. It is paired with milk tea with creamer
The tea flavor is strong and the milk flavor is relatively low-key, suitable for friends who prefer strong tea flavor
5. Chen Sanding Brown Sugar Frog Fresh Milk 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
my favourite! For those who like sweet milk tea one! Certainly! want! try!
When I arrived at the mansion, I saw the one with the long queue~ Lettuce Baby and Liu Yihao also came to drink in the Korean show Superman is back.
The biggest highlight of Chen Sanding is the brown sugar pearls.
They insist on using handmade powder balls instead of industrial pearls, and the milk is Guangquan fresh milk
So although it tastes very sweet, it is not that kind of stiff and deadly sweet. After drinking a cup, I feel very happy!
There are also delicious stinky tofu, spicy duck blood and opium powder balls nearby, as well as the famous Lanjia Baobao. It is a gourmet world with few tourists~
6. Ruguo Winter Melon Lemon Basil 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Lemon slices with basil 🌟🌟🌟
Wenqing shop hidden in Hejiang Street, there is only a semi-outdoor square table, wood and green plants are a good place to take photos
It focuses on healthy drinks, using natural ingredients that are simple and not added, so there are no coconut puddings here
The pearls are handmade without adding preservatives. Lemons, pineapples, etc. are all delivered directly from the place of production, so you can drink it with confidence and peace of mind~
The taste of winter melon and lemon is very sweet and refreshing when paired with small perilla
Friends who have never tried basil must try it. Drinking it in summer is very refreshing and can help digestion
Lemon slices are refreshing and greasy. It's really good to drink a cup in hot summer. It is recommended to have a sugar content of more than half sugar, otherwise it will be too sour
It is recommended not to put it for too long, otherwise the lemon slices will be soaked for a long time, and the bitterness will come out
7. Guiji Pearl Red Black Fresh Milk 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Red pomelo jade 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Taking "little people, big life" as the SLOGAN, we hope to re-present the simplest, traditional and almost forgotten taste through improvement.
Guiji brings together many local manufacturers who work hard to produce raw materials, and finally bring the most delicious drinks through repeated tasting and testing
At first I saw a black cup with red words printed on it, and I wanted to say what kind of old man’s herbal tea it was, but I was completely amazed after taking a sip
Pearl Red Oolong Fresh Milk Red water oolong with fruity aroma, collided with Jiaming fresh milk, and finally put crystal clear amber pearls
This amber pearl really makes me fondle admiringly. It has a faint honey fragrance, but it will never seize the C position of milk tea. It is very Match!
Red Pomelo Jade is definitely a 100-point summer drink, and it is a super-limited amount of fresh red pomelo dug by hand every day. Super generous, every bite is full of fruit, the generous and substantial portion completely kills Heytea's full cup of red pomelo
The combination of sweet and sour grapefruit pulp and fresh green tea is a refreshing and sweet taste!
8. Thirteenth month tea, floating clouds 🌟
Man Sheng 🌟🌟🌟🌟
This place is in an alley in the East District, you can go in for a drink if you are tired from shopping
The name of the store is Tredecimber, which is a non-existent month. I hope diners can forget the time and enjoy a cup of hand-cranked time
The decoration of the store is mainly blue and gold and copper, which is very modern. You can take pictures in the store with a drink~
Tea, Floating Cloud is a product I am looking forward to. The beautiful gradient of tea and fresh milk makes me eager to take a big sip
It's too bitter! I chose half sugar, but it is very bitter. The tea and milk taste seem to be separated. It may be more suitable for friends who like strong tea fragrance
The failure of the first cup of Mansheng lowered my expectations for this cup to the lowest.
This drink made with seafood rice bowl is really full of ingredients! Every bite is amazing!
Natural jam is made from apples, pineapples, pears, passion fruit and oranges. After adding lychee balls and natural cold weather, you will really feel full after drinking it
Half sugar will not taste too sweet, just like seafood rice bowl, suitable for summer~
9. Please don't scream at me Rose Fresh Milk Tea 🌟🌟🌟
It's very close to Thirteen Months, and it's only a few steps away. After two drinks, I thought I'd come here to check in.
A store that is very in line with my aesthetics, the old banyan tree outside the store, the off-white shop with beautiful and ugly hand-painted, weird Wenqing!
Rose Fresh Milk Tea is based on the store's own dry rose fruit juice, paired with fresh milk tea prepared with Ceylon black tea, the layers are very beautiful
Take a sip, in addition to the mellow milk flavor and a touch of rose aroma, there is also an unexpected honey aroma, rich in layers, it is an unexpectedly charming drink
10. Mao Qing Tea Room Puer Latte 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Oolong latte with pearls 🌟🌟🌟🌟
"The consistent intention of a piece of tea leaves boils our era."
In the tea room near Xingtian Temple, there are a lot of Japanese and Korean tourists when I go there. Not only can you buy hand-cranked drinks, but you can also buy tea in the store.
All the teas it uses are top-quality teas from the time-honored Guangfangyuan Tea Shop. Pu’er beverages are the best in the store, warm and smooth, rich and mellow
Puer Latte Nanbo Bay in the store! Pu'er as the base, made with whole fresh milk
Can you believe that drinking a hand-cranked drink will give you a sweet treat? it can. Definitely a shop not to be missed by the tea party~
Oolong Latte Tea-flavored oolong with a lot of fresh milk. The tea-flavored milk taste is nothing to say. What I didn’t expect was that the pearls didn’t disappoint me.
The sweetness, elasticity, and size of pearls are all good. It is really comfortable to take these two cups to Yangmingshan to watch the sunset~
11. Zhenzhu Dan Brown Sugar Pearl Fresh Milk🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
"Adhering to the spirit of boiling pearls into elixir, it has become the current rare boiled elixir."
Starting from a street vendor, it should be regarded as a super famous store everywhere. I saw the picture of the senior sister’s po on ig and it was amway
I met it when I went to Tamsui to play, and crossed the road quickly, shyly said that I always thought it was "Zhenzhumu" before, and told the clerk wrong
Brown sugar pearl fresh milk is its top1, the brown sugar made by local method is full of nostalgic taste
Grandma pushed back and said she didn't want to drink it, but after a sip, we went back and bought another cup, the top three drinks that I will never forget after returning to Shanghai!
12. Qingxin Fuquan Honey Puer Fresh Milk Tea with Pearl 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
A hand-cranked drink shop that sounds very old man's tea, every time I pass by, I don't have the desire to buy it
It happened to be raining heavily once, so I had no choice but to buy a cup of the legendary hidden version (don’t worry, although it is a hidden version, it will be printed with a large poster and posted at the door, just point it out to the clerk)
It's really like the Internet says that you will fall in love with it once you drink it! The specially selected Pu'er wine red on the upper layer is rich and mellow. It is melted into the Yimei fresh milk and sweet longan nectar on the lower layer, and is paired with dense pearls. The taste is super rich and luxurious!
The taste can only be described as a dream. The mellow and rich frankincense, the luscious Pu'er tea, the round and plump pearls, and the aroma of my favorite longan nectar, immediately soared to the top of my favorite honor list
Qingxin Fuquan can not only adjust the sweetness of ice cubes, but also add fresh milk, pearls, coconuts, etc. according to various pure teas. This "hidden version" is the popular one after being prepared by netizens.
On the official website, you can also check the origin of all the ingredients in the drink, and even the machines used to make it, tea, pearls, fresh milk, including ice cubes, all of which are clearly written, which makes people feel at ease!
13. MEOW Red Grapefruit Drink 🌟🌟
Completely amnesiac to the point of forgetting the name of the drink
14. Yifang Brown Sugar Pearl Milk Tea 🌟🌟🌟
The original intention was to taste the difference from Yifang in Shanghai
The conclusion is: whether it is decoration or taste, it is exactly the same
Since I went to Taiwan to play, I don’t need to drink this, I can try other milk tea shops
15. Mikexia Pearl Fresh Milk🌟
The most pissed off glass of jenny milk in the whole trip
Pearls are so hard that they are completely beyond the chewy range and are lifeless pearls
It is said that it is a cooperation with Green Light Ranch or something, but there is no special advantage in drinking fresh milk
Because it is very famous, I don’t know if it is the store problem I encountered or a commonality
You can still try its signature fresh milk mung bean smoothie or other drinks
16. Round Cup Gray Milk Tea 🌟🌟🌟
Replica Fenyuan Fresh Milk Tea 🌟🌟🌟🌟
"An ore with a smooth and bright surface is made after thousands of tempers, and this is the case with round stones."
Yuanbei, which started in Kaohsiung, has become popular in Taipei. It is a famous store known to all milk tea lovers.
Gray milk tea is based on Earl Gray. It tastes like a unique aroma of bergamot. Paired with thick milk containing fresh cream, it tastes like an English milk tea.
Re-engraved Fenyuan Fresh Milk Tea is made with re-engraved black tea as the base, and then added with fresh milk. It is sweet but not greasy, and with golden powder rounds, it is perfect milk!
The above~ are all the milk teas I drank in Taipei for two weeks. Except for the large chain beverage stores such as 50 Lan (just a little), COCO, and COMEBUY, there are many small, cute and unique milk tea shops in Taipei, waiting for everyone to discover~
I hope that when you enjoy the simple joy of drinking milk tea, you should also pay attention to your weight, remember to eat half sugar and less sugar (a lesson from the blood and tears of a fleshy girl]
