About Me: Why I Started this Sippin Tea Budget blog

 Hi, I’m Annabel and I LOVE tea especially milk tea!



But surprise… I’m not really into boba.  I don’t mind having it now and then, but if there’s a choice, I usually skip the pearls and go straight for the tea.

What I really love is discovering good teas — especially fruit teas, black teas, and milk teas made with fresh milk and quality ingredientsI try to choose options that are both tasty and not too artificial.

But here’s the problem:

  1. There are just too many brands out there! I’ve tried drinks from certain well-known chains and didn’t like them, only to be told by friends that I chose the “wrong” drink. According to them, I shouldn't judge a whole brand by one bad experience. Okay... fair. But then, what should I try? Everyone seems to have a different recommendation — and I get confused.

  2. Milk tea isn’t cheap. If you crave it often (like I do), it adds up , both in money and sugar.

So, with those two dilemmas — too many options and price concerns,  I had a little lightbulb moment 💡! 

This blog is my solution

This isn’t exactly a review blog, for the simple fact that everyone has different taste buds.

Instead, I put together curated lists to help people like me make smarter, quicker choices,  without wasting money or calories

What you'll find here :

  • Top 5 best selling drinks to try from popular milk tea brands

  • Best budget tea bags you can buy at the supermarket

  • Affordable black teas that pair well with milk

  • Budget herbal tea picks for everyday sipping

  • Occasional DIY ideas for making milk tea at home

Basically, this blog is my way of sharing what I discover:  the shortcuts, best picks, and smarter buys , so you can enjoy good tea without the stress or overspending.

Hope you find something helpful here. Happy sipping!

– Annabel
