Not only it tastes sweet and good but it is also refreshing. It also comes with different flavors and variations to choose from.

It has several types such as the following:

  • Bubble Tea
  • Hong Kong Milk Tea
  • Tea Latte
  • Thai Iced Tea
  • Masala Chai
  • British Milk Tea

This beverage contains caffeine but the amount depends on what type of tea is used. And often times, black tea is used which has 60 to 120 milligrams of caffeine in every cup of eight (8) ounces.

Black tea is said to be the healthiest type of tea. It has antioxidants that help improve health and lower the risk of chronic diseases. Black tea also contains antimicrobial properties and nutrients like calcium, vitamin D, protein, vitamin B12, and potassium.

Here’s a simple guide to making this trending drink:

  • Prepare ingredients such as one cup of water, two teaspoons of black tea or 1 tea bag, one teaspoon of brown sugar or any sweetener you prefer, and ¼ cup of your preferred milk.
  • Steps according to a post:
    • Boil the water.
    • Add the tea bag or two teaspoons of black tea in an infuser or tea strainer.
    • Add sugar and stir well.
    • Pour the milk until you reach your desired color and consistency.
    • Add ice if you like.
    • Stir and enjoy.

However, the milk teas we have nowadays are loaded with sugar and have high amounts of calories. Excessive consumption may not only lead to weight gain but might also cause insomnia, pimples, anxiety, constipation, and an imbalance in your blood pressure levels.
