was a little skeptical when the cashier told me that oats would go very well with oolong tea and that it was one of the most “authentic” topping choices in taiwan. but oh boy, i was in for a pleasant surprise.

the oolong milk tea tasted generic but good, if it makes sense? there’s a slight taste of oolong which kinda reminded me of koi’s oolong milk tea. nothing mind blowing but good enough for me to come back. BUT the winning factor had to be the toppings!!! i simply loved how well the oats complimented the drink. the oats had a nice and chewy bite, and was practically the perfect and healthier pearl substitute. the oats practically parachuted this drink into my top 3 fave bubble tea drink.

we were recommended to get the drink with 50% sugar level but decided to go with 25% instead as we were afraid that it would be too sweet. would personally recommend going with 0% instead as the oats tasted like it was cooked with sugary syrup and added quite a bit of sweetness to the drink (or maybe they poured the sugar syrup over it?).

the wantea which we didn’t really want after a few sips 😭😭😭 can’t really taste the tea in the original milk tea & the sugar syrup tasted pretty artificial. alishan oolong was relatively better but the pearls killed the drink - overly soft and chewy 😨 somewhat reminded me of those “bubble tea” from sweet talk all those years back.

such a refreshing drink as compared to our normal addiction 😍😍😍
每個午後都應該猶如這杯飲料一樣美好
