After lunch at the nearby Marine Parade Central hawker centre, one of my colleagues had the urge to drink Koi bubble tea. So we all followed suit. I saw this new banner outside the shop promoting its new creation Green Macchiato (there is the black tea version as well). It looks like the Gong Cha signature drink tat has the milk froth on top of the tea, so I decided to try this new drink, since I love the Gong Cha version.There was quite a long queue that day and we had to wait abt 10 mins befor

There was quite a long queue that day and we had to wait abt 10 mins before we got our drinks. At the counter I saw this instruction sheet telling customers how to drink this Macchiato - you would be given a small plastic "knife" instead of the normal straw, so tat you can cut open the lid and then jus sip the tea like that, without using straw. According to the sheet, it's also recommended that you drink this without adding any pearls/ topping.
However when I got my drink, they didn't give me the plastic knife but just a usual straw. I thought the drink was a tad too milky. It didn't taste as fragrant or special compared to Gong Cha's signature. It was just like a normal cup of milk tea (without the pearls) except that this one had too much milk. It's slightly cheaper than theie bubble milk tea and Gong Cha's signature though. Quite disappointing......
