Livin' In The Chonx

Jie Ke 街客
•    3-6 RMB

This chain specializes in milk tea, fruity beverages, and smoothies.  One big plus is their menu is in Chinese and English, removing the guesswork.  Their signature pearl milk tea is considerably better than what the random street stands sell, perhaps because they use real milk instead of creamer powder.  The coconut milk with sweet honey beans is also worth trying.  Just avoid the coffee drinks.  For about the same price you can get a much better (less watered down) coffee at McDonald’s.  There are locations in all the major walking street districts, just keep an eye out for the big orange sign.
