💛 My Top 3 CHAGEE Milk Tea Picks
Because I love milk tea more than good ol' plain tea (and drink way too much of it 😅), this is my personal ranking of the best milk teas at CHAGEE—not based on sales, but on flavor, balance, and overall experience.
1. White Peach Oolong Milk Tea
Light, fruity, and slightly floral. The oolong base keeps it grounded, while the white peach adds just the right amount of juicy sweetness.
Why I love it: Because I love fruity tea and it feels like a tea you could drink every day. Not too sweet, super smooth, and naturally aromatic.
2. Da Hong Pao Milk Tea
A deeper, more roasted milk tea. Da Hong Pao is a legendary oolong tea, and you can really taste the premium quality here, rich, earthy, and satisfying.
Why I love it: When I want something bold, this is my go-to.
3. Tie Guan Yin Milk Tea
This oolong is smoother and lighter than Da Hong Pao, with a clean floral finish. It’s soft, fragrant, and incredibly easy to drink.
Why I love it: It feels calming and elegant, perfect for slow afternoons.
Final Thoughts
What I really appreciate about CHAGEE is its commitment to health-conscious choices. With real tea leaves, fresh milk (no creamer), and no reliance on tapioca pearls, the focus is on pure, high-quality ingredients. It’s a refreshing change from the usual sugary bubble teas that rely on artificial flavors to boost the taste.
I've tried Da Hong Pao and White Peach Oolong from other places, but CHAGEE stands out to me because you can truly taste the tea. There’s something about the quality and the way they brew it that feels more authentic. One tip I’d give is to go for around 50% sugar. While I love the healthier approach, I find that when the sugar level is too low, the taste doesn’t hit as deeply for me. It might just be a psychological thing, but I like knowing I’m reducing artificial sweetness while still enjoying a balanced flavor.
If you’re like me and can’t resist a good milk tea, my personal picks might just become your go-to favorites too. Or, if you’re unsure, CHAGEE’s top sellers are a great place to start—they’re widely loved for a reason.
