What does it mean to add milk tea? What are the ingredients in the three brothers of coco milk tea? The Development History of Pearl Milk Tea

Order a cup of milk tea to eat pudding, pearls and fairy grass.

In the past, pudding, pearl and fairy grass were known as the "three bullies of milk tea", which are the standard configuration of milk tea, but today, these three bullies are not so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The original milk tea is best known as "pearl milk tea", while pearl milk tea was first exported from Taiwan.

In 1987, a cold drink tea shop in Taiwan called Chunshuitang, which was established in 1983, had a whim: a local snack vermicelli was added to the milk tea, but it tasted unexpectedly good and was loved by consumers, and this milk tea was named Pearl Milk Tea. Since then, Pearl Milk Tea has become Taiwan's largest Internet celebrity milk tea that year.
