Perfect for a hot day.

Many food trends have come and gone, but the bubble tea craze is here to stay

While there have been some interesting (read: weird) combinations like boba french fries and bubble tea steamboat, Xing Fu Tang has decided to marry two sweet treats: boba and soft serve

The popular Taiwanese bubble tea chain launched its soft serve ice cream yesterday in two different flavours: Strawberry Dream and Fresh Milk with Brown Sugar Boba.

While Xing Fu Tang is best known for its Brown Sugar Boba Milk, you can now enjoy it both as a drink AND in ice cream form!

The soft, milky ice cream paired with warm, caramalised chewy pearls drenched in brown sugar will leave your taste buds longing for more, especially on a hot day (which is also every day in Malaysia :P).

Unfortunately, the soft serve ice cream isn't available at all Xing Fu Tang outlets

Here are the branches which are currently serving it:

  • Bayan lepas
  • City Junction
  • Jalan Hutton
  • Kota Bahru
  • Kuantan
  • Alor Setar
  • Karpal Singh Drive
  • Sungai Petani
  • Juru Sentral
Let's hope they start launching it at more outlets soon! *Fingers crossed*
