Iced Lemon Fruit Teas for summer at Chagee

CHAGEE is welcoming its first Philippine summer with a fruity splash from the latest addition to its local lineup. The global milk tea store is now bringing to Manila its Iced Lemon Fruit Tea series — infused with real fruit flavors and brewed tea.

The Jasmine Lemon Tea pairs premium jasmine green tea with crisp lemon juice. Da Hong Pao Lemon Tea combines bold, roasted da hong pao tea leaves with zesty lemon, while the Glutinous Lemon Tea blends high-mountain green tea with the subtle sweetness of glutinous rice aroma, and lemon.
