Bubble Tea Frenzy

Lately there is this Bubble Tea Frenzy @ Craze that has been going on. It is like a modern kind of addiction out there! Haha.

Heee... and yes, I have to confess that I am succumbed into this 'addiction' as well. Haha. (*^_^*)

I always like Bubble Tea because of the sweet taste and the pearl inside. But only when a friend of mine introduced me to Chatime, that's when the 'addiction' begins! xD



This is the Chatime at Berjaya Times Square. Will usually have a long line queuing up to buy bubble tea and another line waiting to pick up the bubble tea at the other end.



My favourite is the Milk Tea with extra pearls of course! LOL. I like the pearls in Chatime. They're big with soft texture and chewable size!

There are of course other outlets selling bubble tea too. Like this one at Pavilion - Ochado.


Ochado Bubble Tea shop is located at Tokyo Street (level 6, Pavilion). I used to see quite a long queue of customers there as well. So I decided to give it a try. I ordered my usual Bubble Milk Tea with extra pearl and only 75% of sugar (apparently that is what they recommended).

Well, the taste of the Milk Tea is not bad. But... The PEARL JELLY are quite a disappointment for me. The pearl jelly used in Ochado are a lot smaller than the usual. The texture of the pearl is also slightly harder and not that fun to chew. LOL. But then again this would be based on individual's preference I guess.

Well, whatever it is... My current favourite Bubble Tea shop is - GONG CHA!!!


Gong Cha signature green tea is the best, I think! The difference between Gong Cha and Chatime or other Bubble Tea shops is the milk that they used. For Gong Cha, the milk is not mixed in the tea when the plastic glass is sealed.

Instead, the milk is in the form of milk froth layering the top of your Bubble Tea. AND... There are 3 special ways to drink your Gong Cha! LOL ~

1. By removing the plastic cover and sipping the milk froth right from the glass (try to get a sip of the tea at the same time while sipping the milk!) - This is the best way to drink it! Haha.

2. By poking your straw through the plastic cover and drinking the Bubble Tea without mixing the milk froth. This is good for those who wants to 'taste' the tea.

3. The classic way - By shaking your Bubble Tea to mix the milk and tea evenly before poking your straw inside for a sip! (My second favourite way of drinking it. LOL)

Usually when I order my Gong Cha I will of course ask for extra pearls too and with only 70% of sugar level. Actually even 50% of sugar level is not so bad. Still sweet and yummy. Oh I love Gong Cha! Haha.

The only Gong Cha outlet that I know of is at KLCC though - Opposite Maybank & Guardian, near Auntie Anne's Pretzel.

I'm gonna get my Gong Cha fix tomorrow! Haha (^_−)−☆
