2. Hong Kong-style milk tea

# KlookFunFact: Hong Kong-style milk tea is often called 'silk stocking' milk tea because of its unique brewing method: It uses black tea leaves, which if brewed for too long, will become bitter. Hong Kongers came up with using a stocking to filter the tea leaves. After long brewing, the stocking will turn a color similar to a woman's silk stocking, hence the drink is called 'silk stocking' milk tea.
Of course, you may wonder what the difference is between normal black tea with milk and this Hong Kong version? Well, Hong Kong-style milk tea, made with sweetened condensed milk, is sweeter and creamier than a regular cup of tea with milk. Locals often drink it very hot in winter or with ice in summer. Let Klook show you the best places to enjoy this drink below.
Lan Fong Yuen is one of them.

Klook, on the other hand, prefers to drink milk tea with lots of ice, especially after a tiring journey exploring Hong Kong, but if you are a fan of hot drinks, a hot milk tea here is also a perfect choice.
