Dragon Fruit Matcha Milk Tea
Christmas Limited Edition! This striking layered drink is inspired by the red, white, and green Christmas tricolor. Featuring a clean Snow Jasmine Milk Tea base and an unsweetened matcha layer, it's a visually stunning, non-cloying matcha milk tea perfect for the winter holiday menu.
🌟Dragon Fruit Matcha Milk Tea: A Three-Layer Design Inspired by Christmas Tricolor Balance
The core concept of this Dragon Fruit Matcha Milk Tea is inspired by the classic red, white, and green of Christmas. It is designed as a refreshing Dragon Fruit Milk Tea, providing a smooth texture while avoiding the typical heaviness and excessive sweetness of traditional milk tea.
1. The Christmas Tricolor Structure: Red, White, and Deep Green
Christmas Red (Dragon Fruit): The base layer features Canned Dragon Fruit Pulp, delivering a bright fruity sweetness and a natural texture.
Snow Jasmine White (Milk Tea): The middle layer is a soothing "Snow Jasmine Milk Tea" crafted with Snow Jasmine Green Tea, Creamer Powder, and cane sugar. It offers clean floral notes and a light milky texture, mimicking the soft white of snow.
Winter Deep Green (Matcha): The top layer is pure Matcha Powder blended with hot water. It is poured slowly along the cup wall to form a beautiful deep green gradation, like the green descending from the Christmas tree top.
2. Flavor Experience: Smooth and Layered Like a Christmas Scene
Aromatic Layers: The drink offers a distinct, layered progression: Fruity notes → Milky smoothness → Matcha aroma aftertaste. Every sip is like stepping into a different Christmas scene.
Refreshing Finish: Even when iced, the drink remains clean and smooth, ensuring it is an appealing matcha milk tea that can be enjoyed slowly without becoming cloying.
