Can’t Get Enough of Boba? You Can Now Get Tiger Sugar’s Bestsellers In One Bundle

Share

Truth: Filipinos love to get in on crazes and bandwagons. We pride ourselves for getting first dibs on just about everything under the sun. Some trends come and go, but one of the mainstays we’ve really welcomed and embraced until now is the explosion of milk tea in the country. 

Case in point—the arrival of Tiger Sugar on our neck of the woods back in December 2018. People lined up for hours on end when it first opened shop here. It’s mind-blowing to think how hyped up the brand was that a ton of customers were willing to wait (ardently and patiently) for a cup or two of their brown sugar milk tea. 

But the hype’s definitely real. And the fad has lived on. 

Love at first sip


These days, you can still see long lines at Tiger Sugar during peak times. Everyone just wants to have their first taste—or come back for more. Whether it’s your first or your nth time at the popular milk tea joint, their distinct brown sugar-streaked offerings are always spot on—and have definitely earned their stripes. 

But what’s the deal with this brown sugar drink? It’s been tagged as a “dessert drink”—and with good reason. It’s the perfect blend of fresh, creamy milk (and tea, sometimes), swirls of sweet caramel-hued brown sugar syrup, and bouncy tapioca pearls. This specialty drink was actually introduced by Tiger Sugar founder, Ming Sung Tsang, in his own dessert shop in Taichung, Taiwan in late 2017. 

ICYDK—A classic and pure brown sugar refresher doesn’t have tea infused in it. Just sugar, milk, and pearls. So yes, it’s absolutely sweet, but for Pinoys who love anything saccharine, it fits the bill.  You’d be glad to know, however, that Tiger Sugar has an expanded menu and also serves some with tea bases, so there are definitely options that are equally good for tea patrons out there. 

Boba bundles

You’re in for a treat this month as Tiger Sugar’s bringing back their Anytime Bun-deals for as low as P520. 

These are three bundled bestsellers all under P1,000—and available for the picking until November 30 at all SM branches of Tiger Sugar nationwide. Each bundle lets you sip and savor four crowd-favorite cups. 


Brown Sugar Cafe Latte

For P520, you can get two orders each of Brown Sugar Cafe Latte and Lemon Tea. The first drink’s ideal for coffee lovers, as it combines an iced latte with brown-sugar pearls—definitely something to pick up if you’re in the mood to switch things up. Opt for the Lemon Tea if you want something crisp, citrusy, and refreshing. 

The second bundle’s seemingly catered to Tiger Sugar purists (we know you’re out there!). This gets you two cups each of Brown Sugar and Premium Milk Tea for only P530. Admittedly, the Brown Sugar variant’s a staple, with its caramel taste, silky texture, and the brand’s signature brown-sugar syrup running down the cup like tiger stripes. The Premium Milk Tea’s for those who just can’t get enough of their go-to tea latte. 

Shell out P560 and you get two cups each of Premium Milk Tea and Brown Sugar Milo. The latter’s a fun combo of the famous chocolate-malt powder and Tiger Sugar’s brown sugar boba drink.

To fully enjoy Tiger Sugar’s blends, you’ve got to shake your drinks (15 times, according to the brand!) to mix them well. Otherwise, you might not be able to appreciate your cups that much, so that’s a pro-tip for you! 

FYI—Tiger Sugar doesn’t allow adjustments to the sweetness level to make sure you get the best taste of their drinks, so if you’re cutting back on sweets and watching your glucose for health reasons, this is something to note and consider. 

If you’re down for an irresistible sweet cup, drop by at any SM branch of Tiger Sugar nationwide until November 30 for their bubble tea bundles. Happy sipping!
