Move over, bubble tea—there's a new sip-and-savor trend brewing in southern China! 🌏🍡 In Xiamei Village, Fujian Province, locals are reimagining tangyuan, the classic glutinous rice dessert, by boiling it in aromatic black tea soup instead of traditional sweet syrup.
Known for its lush tea plantations 🍃, Fujian adds a bitter twist to the sugary treat, creating a flavor balance that’s 'like a perfect TikTok dance'—harmonious, surprising, and totally addictive. 'The tea cuts through the sweetness, making every bite feel lighter,' says a local chef (who’s probably *this* close to going viral).
Pro tip for foodies: Pair it with oolong tea for double the Fujian flair! 🎌 Whether you’re a dessert lover or a tea addict, this mashup is a must-try for your #FoodieBucketList.
