季緣 CHI YUAN | Premium Taiwanese Tea | 忠孝店

Taipei now truly has an overwhelming number of hand-shaken drinks. I saw some recommendations online before, and I heard the fruit-based drinks are quite good, so I happened to be nearby and decided to give it a try.

When I went there, there was a long line and it was super crowded. Although there were a lot of people, the staff’s attitude was quite nice. I waited for about 20 minutes, which gave me plenty of time to hesitate. I was indecisive between the Peach Green Tea and the Camellia Peach Milk Crown but eventually chose the Camellia Peach Milk Crown. The staff mentioned it has a slushy feel, but it can still be adjusted for sugar and ice, so I ordered it with less sugar and less ice.

It tasted very refreshing, without the obvious slushy texture. The milk foam wasn't too thick or overwhelming, and the peach flavor was really fragrant. I felt the balance of milk, peach, and sweetness was just right, and I really enjoyed it. Although one cup costs 90 TWD, I still want to try other drinks next time. It would be even better if I didn’t have to wait in line!
