milk tea

[salaami]

the best milk-tea i ever had was whipped-up by some afghanis during ramadaan a few years back. they brewed the tea( regular lipton i believe) really strong, and then added the milk in slowly, stirring it constantly. might have had a bit of cinnamon or nutmed too. it had so much milk in it that it had a layer of film on the top... deish

Does the multi-colour stuff taste different?

[azn8oi]

I doubt it.

whipped-up by some afghanis

My afgahi friend makes the nicest tea. I know he puts cardamon pods, cinammon sticks, vanilla beans and shit in there. so good man. so good. really spicey.

Boba is great.

I love it. But only for like one cup...per every like...half year... Anymore than that and it kind of gets gross, just fat and starch. But anyway, there are a lot of neato complex methods to it. The one I like the best is after you finish cooking it just drop it in honey while it waits to be consumed.

Shit will taste so goooood. And it's not a lot of extra work. Assuming you know how to cook that shit. And got good ingredients, etc.

The honey tip is correct, makes them actually sweet not just random blobs of tasteless tapioca

went to mitsuwa today.

picked up

Imma base my opinions off the first picture (Kirin Afternoon Tea)

The Lipton is a decent alternative. Little less sweeter and it's not as strong as the Kirin Afternoon Tea.

The Kirin special tea is BOMB. At first the contents of the bottle are a little separated. Cream (milk?) on top and everything else on the bottom. A little shake and you got the milk tea. Not too much different from the regular Afternoon Tea, overall a little more sweeter and stronger. I'd prefer that one over the Afternoon Tea, but they don't it in the 1.5 liters.

^fuck i love kirin.

nothing like going to mitsuwa and getting special afternoon tea + santouka salt ramen + pork chashu, no matter what the weather.

just hit up any chinese joint and they should serve some good tasting milk tea.

[Knugget]

are you serious?

[pieiskewl]

what about some black tea mixed with milk and sugar?

[tm]

are you serious?

yes im serious.

boba shop doesnt make the best tea.

at least around my way.

[Knugget]

not all the places around me make good milk tea, but some places do.

[JL77]

There's a spot in Alhambra/Monterey Park called Tasty Garden. It's on Valley. They serve some of the best milk tea I've had and refills are unlimited.

[Knugget]

I recall being there before. Milk tea is pretty good there, but after a while I end up being super sick of it.

[JL77]

I usually chug about 3-4 glasses, barely touch any of the food we ordered and pack it all for lunch the next day. The lemon tea there is on point as well.

[mrkehbyners]

tastea has some good milktea. i dropped by 4/7 days this week to get some.

real addicting

[mrkehbyners]

failed at making this today

went out and bought lipton tea bags (for jugs)

put water in jug, tea bag in (bought tea bags that don't need boiled water)

mixed it up added creamer + sugar

did not taste good at all..

so what i did was add alot more sugar and a little milk

taste alright but not as great as i expected

any tips?
