Brown Sugar Bubble Tea @ 幸福堂
BROWN SUGAR BUBBLE TEA
幸福堂, London
Feeling so bubbly after this 😏 . Having opened a couple of weeks ago @xingfutang.london has been pretty hyped up with long queues and good reviews. But what did we think?🧐 . We thought the drink had too much ice (meaning less drink). And the fact that you can't customise sugar or ice levels would put some people off.🥺 . But on the whole, I absolutely LOVED IT. The sugar level was perfect for me (I normally get 100% sugar anyway) and flavour-wise this is the best brown sugar bubble tea I've had in London.🙌🏻 . There is something charming and mesmerising about how the pearls are cooked in brown sugar right in the store front, glazed on the inside of the cups with a scoop of pearls and then passed onto the next person. There is then milk and cream added, further brown sugar sprinkled on top and torched to achieve a caramelized finish. The almost-military production line efficiently puts out drink after drink. WORTH THE HYPE.👌🏻 . 📍Chinatown, Leicester Square 💷 £4.65
