My new cubicle neighbour at work, Sophia, a charming woman who is a joy to know, presented me with a sachet of this stuff called Milk Tea. She said that this is very popular in Hong Kong, and people drink it all the time. I can see why!

It’s tea! It’s sweet, it’s milky … all in the convenience of a small sachet that you can take anywhere. You just need to add water. I don’t like comparisons, but if I must, think of the comforting, belly warming goodness of hot chocolate. But instead of chocolate, think tea. That’s what this is all about.

T & T sells it at West Edmonton Mall.
