Oh hai, Canadians, I’m in ur country, drinkin’ ur tea. Ok, so this isn’t really Canadian tea, but it was possibly the tea shop closest to the Calgary Airport, and since I was just flying in to drive out into the boonies, I needed a quick fix. I saw on the website that they had rose milk tea at the shop and decided I had to go. It took me a bit to find it because the tea shop was actually inside a huge asian grocery. But eventually, success!
This was a really tasty rose milk tea. Most of the time with these you can’t really taste the “tea” base but the important part to me was the rose, and that was of course in evidence. The boba were a little too soft, which was my main complaint. Otherwise, I loved it. Gotta find a way to make rose milk teas on my own. The ones I’ve had all seem to use a thick rose syrup/jelly type thing with rose petals in it for the flavoring.
Aha! Now we know where you are this week!
I loooove Ten Rens rose tea!!
Any chance you’ll be swingin’ by Toronto? :)
ROFL! love how you started that! What about adding Rose Water to make this Rose tea at home? That would not be sweet or syrupy!
Indigobloom — Not this time, just Alberta. But at some point I will probably go to the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, and I’ll be sure to let you know if I do!
Azzrian — I’m curious how non-sweet milk bubble tea would taste, now, because they are always so sweet. I would imagine kind of like rose black tea with milk, but I’ve never had that.
Nice, I look forward to it!!
You can ask them at TenRens to add less or no sugar if you want. I do!
Are you in Calgary still? I live here!
I’m actually in Drumheller for the week!
Ah yay Drumheller! Home of the dinosaurs haha
