The red glutinous rice cake flavored milk tea is a recently promoted item. The sweetness of the red glutinous rice cake pairs well with the smoothness of the milk tea, though the milk flavor is slightly light. The unsweetened option still provides a suitable level of sweetness.
The environment is small but clean and tidy, suitable for buying a drink to quench your thirst.
The food is served quickly, and the overall service is average.
Near Dou Nan Station, "TeaTop 第一味" is located on Zhongshan Road right in front of the train station, a prime zone for beverages. During my recent visit to the Zhongshan branch, I specifically tried the "Red Glutinous Rice and Bamboo Fragrance Fresh Milk Tea." This drink, featuring red glutinous rice paired with fresh milk tea, is one of their recent offerings. The sweetness of the red glutinous rice complements the creamy texture of the fresh milk well, although the milk flavor is a bit on the lighter side and has a slight wateriness to it. Since the red glutinous rice is slightly sweet on its own, I opted for no sugar this time, and I personally found the sweetness just right. For those who usually prefer less sweetness, this customization is a good option as well.
Overall, the place feels pretty standard; the price of 65 NTD for this fresh milk tea is reasonable. The environment is small but clean and tidy, and the service is quick.
In conclusion, this is a suitable spot for grabbing a drink to quench your thirst. However, there are many strong competitors on this street. If I have a particular craving for something chewy and I'm feeling hungry, I might consider coming back.
