Recently, a post by a hundred tea employees in the kitchen on a social platform has attracted the attention of onlookers. They were shocked to see the shop assistants in the video who were supposed to shake milk tea with a snow pot pick up their spatula and become kitchen gods. after some inquiry, they learned that the workers had changed to cook because of the launch of the new product "hand-fried Black Sugar Pearl fresh Milk".

In the eyes of milk tea lovers, pearls are an excellent match for milk tea, while stir-fried pearls wrapped in black sugar syrup are equivalent to "top matching of pearls". As soon as they appear, they will naturally attract many milk tea consumers to place orders.

This new style of tea is no exception. Many milk tea stars said they were curious after seeing the video of shop assistants stir-frying pearls and immediately bought black sugar pearl milk tea from nearby stores to try something fresh.

However, from the feedback on social platforms, the first wave of pearl eaters' evaluation of the new tea products can be described as polarized. Consumers who were conquered by the black sugar pearl boasted that they wanted another drink after drinking it, but some experimenters frowned, shook their heads and shouted "not good" after drinking it.

Some people say that in their impression, the taste of this kind of freshly fried pearls should be soft and waxy and delicious, with a little bit of fried incense. But in fact, the pearls they ate did not taste soft and waxy, but felt like "soaking for a long time", and some people even reported that they had "a smell of sterilized water" from milk tea ingredients.

In this regard, some netizens pointed out that from the production process of the black sugar pearls exposed by the tea staff, what they need to take time to make is only brown sugar syrup. When the black sugar syrup in the pot is ready, they add the semi-finished pearls to the pan for stir-frying, so that each pearl can be wrapped in a layer of sticky syrup.

There is no denying that the production in this way is indeed a pot of steaming black sugar pearls, but netizens say that the taste of the black sugar pearls will depend on the quality of the semi-finished pearls. They speculate that the "strange smell" in the pearls feedback from customers may be due to the poor quality of the semi-finished materials used in stores.

In addition, regular cooks believe that although the brand has a clear method for making black sugar pearls, the results of the same recipe in the hands of different cooks may be slightly different.

They say that if shop assistants let semi-finished ingredients soak longer, or if the cooking time of pearls is shortened by a few minutes, small variables may affect the final result, resulting in uneven quality control of milk tea ingredients in various stores.

Therefore, consumers believe that although the freshly fried black sugar pearls launched by Tea Baidao are eye-catching, if the milk tea ingredients produced by various stores cannot "align the granularity" to ensure a similar taste and taste, it would be better to return to the practice that can best protect quality control, instead of using this way to attract consumer attention and add additional work burden to migrant workers.
