You stumble across a drink that isn’t quite coffee, not quite tea—but unforgettable. That’s what happened to a coffee enthusiast in Guangzhou who accidentally created a rich, warming blend of Pu'er tea and espresso, later refined into a slow-simmered recipe with cream, milk, apples, and maple syrup. The taste lingered for a year, yet the complexity kept it off the menu. Now you can make it at home.
