Heavenly Frappes
When you say frappe,expect foam-covered iced coffee drink. And this is what you really get when you’re in Cafe Tea Ria. Every cup of Cafe Tea Ria’s frappe is made from the finest coffee beans, milk and flavored syrup, blended until smooth, topped with whipped cream, and dust with chocolate chips and crinkles (depending on the flavor).
And the good news is, these heavenly frappes comes in very affordable price. It’s even less than a hundred pesos for 22 oz cup!
Coffee lovers can choose from 10 flavors – Hazelnut, Cappucino, Rocky Road, Double Dutch, Cookies & Cream, Java Chip, Swiss Mocha, Coffee Crumble, Vanilla and Caramel Maccachiato. They can have their frappe either coffee or cream based.
Not your Ordinary Tea
If you’re cutting your caffeine, don’t worry, Cafe Tea Ria offers a wide array of choice from milk tea, fruit tea and fresh tea. And if you’re looking for something different, they have the Yakult Mix, which is really made from the yogurt drink, Yakult.
What’s also interesting with their tea are the add-ons or what they call “sinkers.” Aside from the usual pearls, coco and coffee jelly, Cafe Tea Ria has this “popping boba” or the bursting ball, created with real fruit juice inside while coated with a clear gummy like skin outside. And here’s the catch: each boba bursts juice on your tongue while chewing it.
