I really shouldn't had Hong Kong style milk tea ahead of my long flight back to SFO, but the aroma of black tea coming from this store finally did me in.
It is usually best to order HK style milk tea hot when you are trying a new place. But with the summer weather in Sydney, I opted to the small iced milk tea for AUD1.5 more.
Just a sip of this iced milk tea, it brought me right back to Hong Kong. I haven't have such a well balanced HK milk tea for a long time. It was so smooth and not overly sweet. The tea was somewhat strong but with zero hint of bitterness. In fact, the flavor of tea held up pretty well even after the ice partially melted.
As it turns out I couldn't sleep for most part of my flight but it was so worth it! read more
