"First, drink - Hand-shaken beverages from the Classical Rose Garden"

Located in the Taipei 101 food court, there is a long queue on weekends!
I probably waited 15-20 minutes to order.
But fortunately, the time spent was just waiting in line,
and getting the drink was a matter of an instant.

★ Menu items
Lemon Summer Rose Iced Tea: 55
Lychee Love - Tea King: 59

★ Thoughts
As someone who rarely drinks hand-shaken beverages,
I felt a sense of happiness drinking the tart rose hand-shaken drink in summer!
Especially the rose drinks from the Classical Rose Garden.

Lychee Love - Tea King
It contains jelly and chia seeds, paired with green tea.
The other option is black tea, but since there's already lychee syrup, I didn’t want the whole drink to become too sticky, so I chose green tea.

There are hundreds of beverage stores in Taiwan contending, and each store is pursuing exclusive and special ingredients for everyone to choose from.

My friend told me that he had tasted Hakka Mo Kueh first, so I decided to give it a try this time! The queues at 101 on weekends are really huge 😂 I had to wait for at least 30 minutes from ordering to getting drinks. I had to watch a movie later and almost missed the start of the main movie...

If you have other arrangements after buying drinks, please pay attention to the time.

Today I ordered English rose latte + mochi ($60 + $12) without sugar and no ice; and stiff neck milk tea (including mochi, $75) with half sugar and no ice.

Let’s talk about the English rose latte first, I think it’s very delicious! The rose aroma is very strong, I think it is an "interesting" cup of milk tea, not boring. Although I ordered sugar-free, I don’t know if it’s because the mochi itself contains sugar. I think the milk tea itself has sweetness, so it tastes good😆

I also tried a few sips of my friend’s hard neck milk tea. The tea base is caffeine-free grain tea and it tastes great too! I like the milk tea's strong aroma of wheat, but the half-sugar is a bit too sweet for me.

Let’s talk about mochi, which is a combination of two Hakka snacks, mochi and vermicelli, so it tastes soft and springy.
It does taste just like the advertising description, with an in-between texture, but I personally don't like it. If you like Yiji Ri Rice Cake, you might like it, the taste is similar.

I first said that I will definitely visit again next time. After all, the milk tea I drank this time was really delicious, so I don’t need to add any toppings yet😅. A friend also recommended fruit tea. I want to try it next time. I recommend it to everyone!

[Samsung: Not bad, I think I can come]
I still remember that there was a classical rose garden in the National Museum of Fine Arts that I used to go to when I was a kid. I liked it very much. When I was teaching outside the school, I secretly bought rose water without telling the teacher. I have a special memory of this brand.
Everyone’s favorite Xiandongdao is the tea brand of Classical Rose Garden. The tea leaves are carefully selected for high quality and must be fresh.
The overall feeling is as noble and elegant as the brand decoration and logo.
For me, it’s a hand shake drink to reward myself once in a while.

This time I bought it at the 101 store. I have been here several times.
You can find that Xianhedao is the most popular handcrafted drink shop in the shopping mall.
Almost every time I come, I have to queue a little bit~
Had to wait half an hour to get a drink during rush hour

I drank peach fruit tea before and thought it was average. This time I ordered English fruit tea which suited my taste better. Although I ordered half sugar and slightly iced, it still felt a bit sweet. However, the fruit aroma was really super rich and not a bit watery. Unfortunately, there was not much ingredients and I could only drink it. If you have some fruit, you might want to try Earl Gray Fruit Tea next time you come!
