Hong Kong-style Milk Tea Making Technique

Also known as "silk stocking milk tea", Hong Kong-style milk tea is the outcome of a century-old evolution from English milk tea to the present popular beverage of Hong Kong. This much-loved local beverage takes a few steps to make: blending tea leaves, boiling and infusing the tea, force-pouring the tea, brewing the tea and force-pouring the milk. The tea-making technique does not only epitomise the fusion and development of Hong Kong's East-meets-West food culture, but also gives a glimpse of how locals live and eat.
