I bought strawberry matcha fresh milk, the fresh milk cannot even dissolve inside. When I drink I feel like I am eating the milk instead of drinking it. Will not recommend this drink and won’t buy it again

Spotted PlayMade’s ube series and had to try. Not overly sweet, nice texture. Osmanthus milk tea is smooth and floral, while the matcha smoothie is richer and dessert-like. Super photogenic collab bottle too.

PlayMade’s seasonal fruit series is super refreshing! The orange chrysanthemum tea is light with a hint of honey, Added Boba Explosion make it more fun

I really enjoy their Chrysanthemum Milk Tea, though I don't usually buy milk tea. 70% stevia was a bit too sweet for my taste; I’d definitely recommend going with 50% stevia instead for a good balance.
