A new, homegrown milk tea shop recently opened in Cebu! And although you’d be tempted to brush it off as another run-of-the-mill milk tea joint, the guys behind it promise that they’ve got something up their sleeves. And truth be told, we are all very excited about what they have to offer! So why do we think Zozzle Tea<\/strong> is worth the hype? Keep on reading. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It has been about 11 years since milk teas started gaining popularity around the Philippines. Yet, it has probably only been around the past year or two that milk tea cafes and stalls started springing up at the rapid pace we see today. So trying to get into the market as a totally new brand is quite the challenge; but Zozzle Tea has come in with both hands swinging. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While many claim to offer authentic milk teas, the owners of Zozzle Tea found themselves dissatisfied with the state of the milk tea market in Cebu. For them, most offer products that are way too sweet, way too creamy, and way too milky for their liking. Essentially, they felt like the essence of milk teas \u2013 the tea itself \u2013 was getting lost in translation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so, Zozzle Tea was born out of this desire for a more authentic tea experience. To them, this meant milk teas with just the right amount of sweetness, without overpowering the most important aspect of the drink itself \u2013 the tea! So they made sure to create their teas the way they should be made \u2013 by steeping actual tea leaves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, if you drop by the store and keep a keen eye on their preparation, you will notice one difference in their method: when preparing your drink, the tea itself is still hot! They were adamant against pre-mixing the tea with milk or creamer. What this achieves, in their taste buds, is the preservation of the tea taste that is lacking in most commercial products today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that\u2019s not the only thing they\u2019re bringing to the table. Instead of using the readily available commercial sweeteners, they decided to go the route of crafting their own \u2013 and thus was born their signature muscovado syrup! Besides being a relatively healthier option, they figured out that the sweetness of the muscovado enhances the tea taste as opposed to overshadowing it. And as a plus, their boba is also soaked in the same signature muscovado syrup! No wonder their customers rave about their boba just as much as the milk teas themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But this can\u2019t be the only twist they have, right? Thankfully, you\u2019re absolutely correct! As there seems to be a new milk tea shop popping up almost every week, they wanted to not only be authentic, but just as importantly, be innovative. How, you ask? By combining two seemingly unrelated things to create something you didn\u2019t know you needed: Milk Tea + Alcohol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To be completely accurate, they not only serve alcohol-infused milk teas, but also tea-based, alcohol-infused cocktails! Their alcohol-infused milk teas are called Giggle Teas<\/strong> \u2013 how cute! Meanwhile, their tea-based cocktails are called Teatails<\/strong> \u2013 just as cute! Now, before you start to worry about milk and alcohol causing upset stomachs, they actually use non-dairy creamer for their milk teas. This allows lactose-intolerant folks to get in on the milk tea craze, and more importantly, it allowed Zozzle Tea to concoct their alcohol-infused potions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While most people immediately equate alcohol with getting drunk, the guys at Zozzle Tea wanted to offer up a different alcohol experience. With their Giggle Teas and Teatails, their goal isn\u2019t to get their customers drunk, but simply to introduce a new and flavorful milk tea experience, with just a touch of the alcohol buzz to get you relaxed after a long day at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
