No. 70 Super Popular (超人氣)

Today I had a bubble tea again. But it was not just any bubble tea, but an amazingly good one. I bought it at a store in Gongguan which always has a line in front of it, because so many people know it. The store only uses real milk and no milk powder and they put black sugar over there boba. So, the drink is super sweet but really really tasty.

No. 69 Winter Melon Lemon (冬瓜檸檬)

Sorry, for not posting for such a long time. My one and only reason is, that I was just tired of having to try new stuff every day. Since I almost tried all teas around school, I just wanted to get back to my favorites and drink those. I had a great time doing that. And I actually started drinking more juice drinks, so some of my new discoveries don't even have tea in them. Just like this one. But it was just so amazing that I have to mention it here. Since it has been raining for a week and it has been freaking cold as well, I needed  a drink to warm me up. Since milk tea is one of my favorites I usually opt for a milk tea, but recently I try to find other great winter options and I found this combination of winter melon tea with lemon.

No. 67 Kiwi Green Tea + Perilla

Today, I went to a new place again. Actually, this place has been recommended to me several times already. However, since it is rather a juice place than a tea place I didn't go there until now. Today, I decided to give it a try. They had a large variety of fresh juices mixed with tea. But I created my own drink with asking them to mix the kiwi juice with green tea. Not only was I surprised that they actually made me that drink without any hesitations, but they added perilla to it as well. And it had real kiwi pieces in there. It was an amazing drink. I should go there more often. Not for creating new drinks, though. That might be quite annoying.

No. 66 Winter Melon Qing Tea (冬瓜清茶)

Winter melon is a fruit I got to know quite early being in Taiwan. This is because several restaurants offer winter melon tea as a free drink to meals. But it is usually really really really sweet. And it is a seasonal thing that Ching Shin offers tea drinks with winter melon. So, I chose one today. They used some kind of winter melon sirup, so it was rather sweet but luckily not as sweet as pure winter melon tea. Since I was really full from my dinner, I couldn't finish that drink and gave it to my dad.
