As the scorching summer approaches, many bubble tea brands have sensed market demand and launched trendy new drinks, including taro series beverages and classic bubble milk tea, which have gained popularity and praise from netizens.

1. KOI Thé — Ace Black Tea

KOI Thé, a well-known specialty tea shop beloved by black tea enthusiasts, has introduced a brand-new black tea product, “Ace Black Tea,” with the arrival of summer. Made from a blend of four fruits black tea sourced from Sri Lanka, it offers a refreshing taste with a lingering, enchanting fruity aroma. It will be available on May 8th.

2. Café 18 – Taiji Thick Tea Latte

Café 18’s summer drink, the “Taiji Thick Tea Latte,” is an upgraded version of their year-round bestseller, the “Fresh Milk Tea Latte.” Inspired by the “Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram,” it features dual black and white ingredients—black tapioca pearls and brown sugar jelly pearls—and uses high-quality New Zealand milk with a 1.5x increase in milk content. The result is a rich texture and a surprisingly creamy, bold flavor.
