Yes โ , her media friends ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฌ & herself really enjoyed the series of artisan Taiwanese ๐น๐ผ tea beverages ๐ฅคmade with premium tea leaves ๐, imported real dried flowers ๐ฅ & imported toppings serving here for all to enjoy ๐๐คค
There are 4 toppings available i.e. Kanten Jelly (She ๐ฉ๐ป loves its crunchy while chewing it), Sweet Potato ๐ & Taro Bubble (She loves its chewy tangy), White Jade Pearl (She loves its chewy tangy) & Brown Sugar Pearl (She not yet try, next visit then) ๐๐คค

She ๐ฉ๐ป has opted for her favourite ~ Yuri Matcha Kumquat Sparkling ๐ต, very appetising sour bubbly sparkling Kumquat to enjoy & blending well with Matcha, definitely a delicious cold cup๐ฅคduring recent hot sunny โ๏ธ weather in Malaysia ๐ฒ๐พ The bubbly sparkling Kumquat just nice & not too gassy ya
