Food: Make Your Own Milk Green Tea ala Gong Cha (or any other bubble tea shop)

The secret to yummy milk green tea from popular bubble tea shops like Gong Cha, Cha Time, Serenitea, Simple Line and all others is that instead of using the regular japanese matcha. They infuse it with Jasmine making it more fragrant and flavorful.

Now if you are not fond of floral tasting teas, this might not be for you, but please do give it a try. As I always say, try everything at least once! As long as it isnt bad 🙂

I was craving for milk green tea one fine and dandy day at the office but there were no shops nearby. Suddenly a light bulb was blinking on top of my head.

Well not really! Hehe 🙂 I suddenly thought of a brilliant idea! (well.. not really that brilliant :P)

Uni President Taiwan Green Tea

Uni-President Taiwan Green Tea should be the perfect milk tea base. I could just add any kind of fresh or condensed milk and add ice and it should should taste similar to what they have. Because Uni-President Taiwan Green Tea is a delicious blend of green tea infused with jasmine lightly sweetened that it’s yummy on its own. Adding milk would make it even yummier! Best part? It’s available at 7-11 for a cheapo price of 31PHP for 550ML. (I made approximately 3 servings of milk green tea)

Drinking tea of any kind has a lot of benefits. It has antioxidants, vitamin C, vitamin E. Oh and its a known diuretic meaning it sheds of excess water weight / or makes you pee a lot . It can help clear up your skin because it cleanses you inside and out. Though there were rumors that milk cancels out the anti oxidant value of tea, you can take em separately on times if you want.

Have a great great great wednesday! I could not wait for the long weekend ahead! I got 2 events to attend to today, one is for the launch of Beauty Bar’s newest makeup line (cant wait to tell you all about it!) and the other one is for the evenint. The launch of Oliver Tolentino’s latest bag collection. Wootwoo!
