Ni Chengui stirred with the spoon and was surprised when he saw the black grains inside, "Yangyang, what is this black stuff?"
He hadn't seen that during his time drinking it in Inner Mongolia.
Ni Yang explained, "These are tapioca pearls, made from cassava flour."
"Can you eat it?" Ni Chengui asked.
"Mhm, you can," Ni Yang nodded.
When Ni Chengui took a sip with his spoon, a rich milky fragrance was first to hit the palate, followed by a refreshing tea aroma and a subtle fruity scent that lingered in the mouth, delightfully complex.
The pearls were chewy and bouncy, which made for a pleasant texture, reminiscent of fruit candy but much tastier.
It was so much better than the milk tea he drank in Inner Mongolia!
There was a look of delighted surprise on Ni Chengui's face.
Seeing Ni Chengui like that, Ni Cuihua knew the milk tea must be good, so she immediately took a cup and had a sip.
Hmm!
Indeed, she wasn't disappointed by the taste.
