Red Velvet Cheese Tea
Cheese tea is the name for milk tea topped with a soft, airy cream cheese-based foam. It originated in the night markets of Taiwan, and quickly gained popularity throughout Asia. The creamy foam is usually lightly salted to create a delicious contrast to the sweetened milk tea.
