Since the peak season for beverage shops is about to begin after the Spring Festival, we decided to start the review with "milk tea" in the first issue.
A cup of milk tea accompanies the growth of Chinese young people. It's just that in different periods, with different store presentations and tastes that keep pace with the times, it has become popular in each era. From the "Quick Three Seconds" era when "one dollar for a cup" was everywhere in the streets, to the milk tea 2.0 with Dawei, vegetable tea Mo, now milk tea has entered the milk cap era.
We have invited six food experts to help you choose a good cup of milk tea!

Many people’s impression of milk tea shops is based on the terrible image of creamer and saccharin. In fact, milk tea has been upgraded to the era of healthy milk tea. Most of the milk tea shops now use milk tea, which is healthier than before. and delicious.
► How to identify a good cup of milk tea?
Blind tasting stage
► Preparation work

In order to avoid that the duration of purchasing milk tea will affect the taste of milk tea, this evaluation activity Do it in two steps and combine the results at the end!
prepared the work in an orderly manner and packed all the purchased milk tea drinks into numbered trial cups, a total of 250 cups!
►Evaluation stage
Each participant has a blind tasting scoring sheet, and scores according to the number for each cup they try. Only after drinking all the milk tea can they reveal which milk tea they just drank.
Every cup of milk tea is tasted carefully, and you slowly appreciate whether the milk tea aroma is of the right intensity and whether the seasonings are just right.
To the end, I felt like I was drinking milk tea with my life. Every participant was bursting with belly, but for the sake of the majority of melon-eating people, every milk tea person persisted seriously!
