Cha Yuan Bubble Tea

The smashed lemon grapefruit tea and brown sugar pearl milk tea are standout picks, along with cheese foam drinks like the Ali Shan oolong cheese foam. Bubble waffles are a popular pairing, made fresh daily and cooked crispy with a soft center.

Sugar levels are adjustable and drinks are handcrafted from real fruits, real milk and real tea. Toppings include brown sugar pearls, lychee jelly, coffee jelly, grass jelly and osmanthus jelly.
