So this is the next thing in Chinese drinks for teens and those who like to hang out in hipster lounges. They have a place nearby that offers this and I’ve tried it twice. Not what I expected at all.
I’m not a boba fan, though I love milk tea and other iced tea drinks. The cheese is essentially a creamy cream cheese topping poured over the tea. It’s almost like liquid cheese cake! The stuff itself is not bad tasting, but it wouldn’t blend with the tea even with vigorous stirring. It tended to separate so I would get gulps of tea only. You could only drink the topping by slurping it separately, and as much as I enjoy cheesecake, I don’t want to drink it. If it blended better, I think I would have liked it more. It’s also very rich, and was just too much after a few sips.
Not sure I “get” this fad. What say you? Have you tried this? Do you like it, or did I just pick poorly and get a bad version of this?
