In order to meet the needs of consumers who "love the new and hate the old", most chain brands now need to maintain the speed of product updates and iteration, and use various novel drinks to attract users 'attention from time to time. Of course, some brands will adopt the form of reproduction and bring celebrity products that sold well and have good reputation a few years ago to the public in the form of memory killing. This is the case with Chabaidao.

It is reported that Chabaidao had a joint event with the well-known liquor brand Luzhou Laojiao in 2020, and launched a limited tea drink "Drunken Step Up" that joined Luzhou Laojiao. Due to its novel creativity, authentic materials and unique flavor like wine-core chocolate, this product received many praises from "wine dumplings" at that time and became a white moonlight that many people never forget.

Later, Chabaidao launched other alcoholic tea products, but failed to shake the status of "Drunken Step" in the minds of netizens. As a result, in response to the call to "hope for the return of" drunken walking ", the brand re-launched this limited drink that gained countless favorites five years ago, attracting attention and discussion from new and old users.

However, judging from feedback on social platforms, the "feeling after drinking" gained after the return of "Drunken Walking" can be described as polarized. People who prefer the aroma of wine were captured by this cup of milk tea mixed with a certain amount of Luzhou Laojiao after the first try. However, people who do not drink often feel the aroma of wine after drinking it, and can even feel the choking and spicy taste of white wine at the entrance. They believe that the flavor of white wine in the drink is not very compatible with the flavor of milk tea.

Some alcohol-sensitive people said that they developed symptoms such as redness, fever, dizziness, etc. after taking a few bites. It would be more appropriate to joke that the brand should rename it "Drunken Step".

As for those old fans who want to relive the taste of the past, many people can't wait to buy a cup after the drink went online, but they only felt disillusioned after drinking it,"Why isn't the original Drunken Step that returned?","It's a good wine. It's completely different from the past","It's not as amazing as before. It's different.","It's completely different from the one I drank before.","Why don't I feel that Drunken Step is not as good as before?"

In their impression, the original "Drunken Walk" was a tea drink with the aroma of white wine and milk. It was like eating a piece of chocolate in the heart of wine. However, after five years, the "drunken walk" that has returned to the public's view is "the aroma of wine and the aroma of milk tea fight in the mouth" and "the wine does not drink, milk does not milk, tea does not tea", which is in line with their memory. The taste of the center of the heart year after year is far different.

Some people even speculated that the brand had quietly changed the drink formula, which caused the taste of the new "Drunken Walk" to be very different from before.

However, some netizens also said that the taste of the new version of "Drunken Walking" may not be caused by the change in the formula. It may be that the raw materials for making tea drinks have changed compared with the materials from five years ago, or it may be that the taste of the drinker has changed over the past five years. Only then did I feel that the once amazing and impressive white moonlight no longer looked like it was then.
