Thai Cha Yen

Thai Cha Yen Cafe is one of the latest tea brands to hit the local market.  I've seen a lot of Taiwanese and Singaporean tea concepts but this is the first time that I tried the Thai style of iced tea.  Their name literally means "Thai Iced Tea" and the tea seems to have some distinct herbal fragrance.  I had a choco-peppermint combination and aside from the minty taste, there was some other delightful herbal taste that unfortunately, I couldn't identify.  The ice teas are priced just below P100, and are mixed right in front of you.  They usually add some sago (cassava pearls) or gulaman bits and they can also adjust the sweetness level as you wish.  The tea shop is operated by two sisters, and they just opened their second branch as the new year started.  Good luck and good times!
