Milksha's New Drops Are Here! Your Must-Try Guide to Caramel Crunch Black Tea & Cloudy Latte, Plus the 'Teaccino' Taking Over in April
The spring beverage scene is absolutely on fire, with new drinks dropping left and right. But the one that’s got our editorial team and fellow bubble tea fans buzzing this week? It has to be Milksha's brand-new "Caramel Tea Salon" series. Honestly, Milksha hasn't just created new drinks here; they've basically bottled up the concept of a dessert café. Without further ado, let's dive into the must-try new flavours and the exciting sneak peek of what's coming in April!
The Caramel Trio: A Symphony of Crunch, Cream, and Tea
The highlight of this March's debut "Caramel Tea Salon" series is undoubtedly the new topping called "Caramel Crunch". This isn't your average caramel syrup. It's a delightful little element that's crispy, crunchy, and packed with a rich, toasty caramel flavour. Eating it on its own is like snacking on a cookie, but when it soaks into your drink, it adds this amazing slightly-crispy texture. It's the absolute star of the show.
- Caramel Crunch Black Tea (Large 45 TWD): If you're a pure tea lover, start here. Based on a classic black tea, it has that familiar, nostalgic tea stand flavour with a subtle hint of roasted seeds at the end. It's not overly sweet, but the sweetness of the caramel sauce cleverly enhances the tea's aroma. Scooping up the Caramel Crunch floating on top with your straw adds a delightful surprise to the refreshing drink. It's a lightly sweet option you could honestly enjoy every day.
- Salted Caramel Earl Grey Latte (Medium 55 TWD / Large 65 TWD): This one is for those who appreciate a more sophisticated flavour. The bergamot aroma of the Earl Grey is inherently elegant, and it becomes incredibly smooth when combined with fresh milk. The real magic is the salted caramel – the sweet-salty balance is absolutely perfect, adding a whole new dimension to the flavour profile. It's not cloyingly sweet, but an elegant latte that keeps you coming back for more.
- Caramel Cloudy Latte (Large 75 TWD): This is the undisputed beauty of this launch and a personal favourite from our editor. Milksha uses their classic "Na Bei" black tea, which has a natural caramel note, as the base. Paired with their Green Light fresh milk, it's already incredibly rich, but then they top it off with a thick layer of caramel cream foam, generously sprinkled with Caramel Crunch. As you drink, the cream foam blends into the tea, creating a texture as light as a cloud, while the caramel flavour is wonderfully full and satisfying. Maximum indulgence, but also maximum happiness!
More Than Just a Drink: Add-On Canelé for the Perfect Ritual
Milksha isn't just serving up drinks this time; they're helping you put together your entire afternoon tea experience. They've teamed up with the popular dessert brand "花磚甜點". From 3/11 to 3/31, when you buy any drink from the Caramel Tea Salon series, you can add on a classic canelé for just 59 TWD. Imagine enjoying that slightly crisp shell and soft, caramel-infused interior of the canelé alongside your Caramel Cloudy Latte. It's a recipe for an afternoon of pure bliss.

Coming in April: A First Look at the 'Amber' and 'Baby' Teaccino
If the March caramel series isn't enough to satisfy your cravings, Milksha has already announced a second wave: the "Teaccino" series, launching April 1st. The concept here is really fun – they're taking the idea of a café cappuccino and applying it to tea. By using a velvety milk foam instead of just fresh milk, they create a tea-based drink with that same refined, creamy texture.
Two new drinks will be available: "Amber Teaccino" pairs roasted oolong tea with caramel milk foam for a mature, smooth flavour profile. Then there's "Baby Teaccino", a caffeine-free version focused on rich milky flavour and sweet caramel notes. Inspired by the 'Babyccino' served to kids in Australian cafes, it lets everyone – adults and children who might avoid caffeine – enjoy that 'coffeehouse' vibe with tea. From April 1st to 7th, both Teaccino options will have a special introductory price of 69 TWD, so definitely something to look forward to.
From March's Caramel Crunch to April's Teaccino, Milksha's latest moves truly show they want to transform 'having tea' into a more fun, stylish lifestyle ritual. Fellow beverage enthusiasts, hit up the caramel series this week, and get ready to keep the party going in April!
