I saw these instant milk tea pouches at T&T last weekend and I almost skipped over them because they just looked like standard milk tea, but then I noticed this one waaayyyy at the back of the shelf that was a gardenia scented green tea instant milk tea. Okay. Colour me curious…
I had a friend who speaks Chinese help me translate the instructions, which essentially boiled down to “add water and whisk”. Very vague. So I did that, with hot water in this case. Honestly? Not bad at all. The powder itself smells really good – sweet and creamy, with distinct notes of gardenia but in a really fresh and non-perfumey way. It dissolved very easily in the water, though the colour looked a bit like a milky dish water. Not the most appealing visually.
In terms of taste it was pretty good, though! I think a little watery, but that would be easily fixed on my end by just not using as much water. I was basically guessing on the amount, so I’m not surprised it was a little off. The taste was smooth and creamy with a bit of sweetness, but nothing as cloying as what an actual milk tea would be. The gardenia comes through clearly and was fresh and bright. I worried the florals might be weird in something so creamy, but it worked quite well!
