I’m in Sapporo today to go get hot pot with my friend for her first hot pot experience! After hot pot, we went to this year’s German Christmas Market, and got some sweet treats. Of course, that included boba for the way home.
As of 11/18, Gong Cha has come out with a festive holiday drink. There’s not only one, but two on the menu (not counting the frozen variations)! First up is the Noel drink, with amaou jelly, amaou strawberry tea as the base, and feuillantine. This drink seems to have the same name as one last year (rare for them to repeat names), but the components are a bit different. The strawberry tea seems to be an original tea blend, as it’s also this month’s seasonal tea. Unfortunately, this drink doesn’t do less ice, but I did get it no sweet, and added boba (for free, because of a birthday coupon).
The drink is very strawberry forward, as the ingredients suggest. The strawberry jelly is soft but a bit firm, and texturally contrasts well with the boba. Speaking of, today’s is very chewy. The tiny flakes on top don’t add too much to the drink, as it’s a bit hard to mix the top of the drink with all the ice there.
