Yeah, literally. Everywhere!
Tea shops, that is.
So, you ask, how can there be an establishment that only serves tea? There isn't enough kinds of tea to support an entire store. There, my friend, you are wrong. But how could you know (unless, of course, you live in Taiwan, also).
Milk Pearl Tea
Grapefruit Green Tea
Lemon Kumquat
Passion Fruit Green Tea
Yogurt Tea
Ice Cream Black Tea
Raspberry Vinegar Tea
I could go on and on......
But as you can see, the menu offers many choices, and this is one of the smaller. less modern shops.
So not are you only faced with choosing which tea, but also which tea shop. In our little village there are at least seven tea shops. That's not counting the fried rice place or breakfast shop which also offers a few select teas. Three tea shops, The Tea Shop, Georg Peck, and Traditional Tea, sit side-by-side, all in a row. Just on the opposite corner is another tea shop. And they all sell enough tea to stay in business.
So here's some of the choices our village offers:
 |
| Grapefruit Green Tea slushy! The clerk actually tasted a bit to make sure it was good enough for us! |
 |
| Nick's favorite-- Yogurt Tea. Sounds weird, but tastes great. |
|
| I love getting a Kumquat Lemon Green Tea Slushy at George Peck. Carl's favorite is Lemon Peach Slushy with bits of peach jello. |
 |
| I've tried several different kinds here-- Pomelo Green Tea was yummy! The Pomegranate Tea, too! Ben likes their Passion Fruit Green Tea. |
 |
| This is the newest tea shop. I haven't tried anything there yet. |
 |
| This shop is closest to school, so it gets a lot of Morrison business. Even during the school day! |
 |
| Closest to our house and offers a larger serving, but not one of my favorites. Sorry, Arai Cha. |
And today was an amazing day because I had not just one of my favorite teas, but two of my favorites. And I didn't buy either one!
