Instagram Review on Popcha Milk Tea

@tresinplaces

What I love about Pop Cha is the authentic taste of tea in their milk tea drinks and that they give generous servings of their cheesecake drops regardless of size! Their cheesecake perfectly complements the tea base. I’ve introduced Pop Cha to my friends and they love it just the same.

My go-to Pop Cha drink is their Pop Cha Cheesecake – two of my favorites in one!

Dark Chocolate Cheesecake

My favorite Popcha Milk Tea is the Dark Chocolate Cheesecake with 0% sugar. I love sweets but when it comes to drinks, I prefer less sugar on them. And Popcha’s Dark Chocolate Cheesecake is one of the best. It was a perfect blend of milk tea and cheesecake. Though it was hard getting the cheesecake inside the container, the drink is a perfect one for a chill treat.
