PlayMade Singapore & Malaysia: Best Drinks to Try in 2025 | Top Picks, Prices & Must-Try Bobas


PlayMade Singapore and Malaysia – What to Try?

Originating from Taiwan, PlayMade has firmly established itself in Singapore since 2017 and expanded to Malaysia in 2023. Over the years, it has become a mainstay in the bubble tea scene. PlayMade continues to captivate boba enthusiasts with its imaginative approach, crafting uniquely flavoured bobas made fresh in-store, paired with bubble tea beverages known for their no-preservative yet highly addictive pearls.


What Makes PlayMade Stand Out?

Artisanal & Fresh
Bobas are handmade daily in-store,  no additives or preservatives ,  giving them a fresh, chewy, authentic bite.

Creative Flavours
From hand-pulped fruits to fragrant brown sugar caramel, PlayMade experiments with exciting flavour combinations and limited editions.

Open-Kitchen Concept
Many outlets feature a live kitchen where you can watch bobas being made,  part of the brand’s charm.

Final Thoughts

If you enjoy chrysanthemum-based drinks or want something different from the usual black boba, PlayMade is a good choice. Their unique handmade bobas,  like chrysanthemum or pink cactus, make them especially appealing for people who want to have a variety of boba varieties. 

One tip: watch the sugar level. PlayMade’s default 100% sugar can be quite sweet. For most drinks, 25% sugar strikes the best balance between flavour and drinkability.
