AtTea 2.0 isn’t just another bubble tea stop—it’s an elevated tea experience that blends quality, creativity, and a thoughtful approach to modern tea brewing. I had the pleasure of experiencing a delightful tea-tasting session that left a lasting impression. From the moment I walked in, it was evident that this wasn’t your usual bubble tea chain.
A Refined Tea Selection: Classics and Signatures
The tasting began with an exploration of their thoughtfully curated tea blends, which fall into two categories: Single Blend Teas and Signature Blend Teas. Each blend provides a fresh take on traditional flavors, ranging from comforting classics to more adventurous combinations.
The Single Blend Teas consist of five meticulously selected options, with familiar favorites such as Roasted Oolong Tea, Cane Roasted Black Tea, and the earthy, robust Pu-Erh Tea. These blends highlight the natural flavors without overpowering them. For a deeper, more intense tea experience, the Cane Roasted Black Tea stood out with its rich, roasted profile, offering a smooth yet full-bodied flavor.
For those seeking something more complex, the Signature Blend Teas bring together unique flavor profiles with ingredients that aren’t typically found in a bubble tea shop. One standout option was the Chrysanthemum Osmanthus Tea, a sweet and floral brew that offered the perfect balance of lightness and complexity. Another must-try from the Signature series is the Genmaicha Cane Roasted Black Tea—a combination of nutty, caramelized flavors with the boldness of roasted tea.
Customizing Your Tea: A Tailored Experience
What sets this tea experience apart is the ability to fully customize your drink. After selecting your base, you can choose how you want it tailored to your preferences.
For those seeking a creamy treat, Oaty Fluff is a must-try. This oat milk-based foam, sourced from Oatbedient, adds a rich, velvety layer to your tea, reminiscent of a macchiato. The sweet foam can either be mixed into the tea or enjoyed separately, offering a multi-layered drinking experience. I paired the Oaty Fluff with the Pu-Erh Tea, and the combination was sublime—the deep, earthy flavors of the tea contrasted beautifully with the smooth, creamy sweetness of the foam.
Additionally, plant-based enthusiasts will appreciate the option of oat milk at no extra charge. This thoughtful inclusion ensures that whether you’re lactose intolerant, vegan, or simply prefer oat milk, everyone can enjoy a customized bubble tea experience without compromise.
Toppings That Elevate the Experience
No bubble tea experience is complete without toppings, and this establishment does not disappoint. While they offer the staple tapioca pearls, their in-house jellies were the real highlight. You can choose up to two toppings per drink, allowing you to mix and match without sacrificing the integrity of the tea.
The Honey Jelly provided a refreshing, lightly sweetened burst, while the Oolong Jelly was fragrant and paired beautifully with both classic and signature tea blends. My personal favorite was the Oolong Jelly—its subtle, aromatic quality added a nuanced layer of flavor to each sip, perfectly complementing the tea. These jellies, made fresh in-house daily, are a sign of the commitment to quality and freshness.
Expertly Brewed by Certified Baristas
One thing that struck me was the dedication to the craft of tea brewing. The establishment takes pride in their tea-making process, with senior baristas certified by the European Speciality Tea Association overseeing each brew. This certification ensures that every cup is made to the highest standards, and it shows. Each sip was full of flavor, expertly balanced, and brewed to perfection.
Incentives for Health and Sustainability
At Tea 2.0 isn’t just about great tea—it’s about mindful choices as well. As part of their commitment to promoting health, they offer a no-added sugar incentive. Customers who choose not to add sugar to their drinks receive a 10-cent discount, encouraging a more natural tea experience. I opted for the Roasted Oolong Tea without any added sugar and was delighted by its dark, rich brew. The tea’s natural roasted, earthy flavor combined with its long-lasting fragrance provided a captivating and satisfying experience.
Sustainability is also a priority, with an additional 10-cent discount for customers who bring their own carriers, helping reduce the environmental impact of single-use plastics. These initiatives align with a growing consciousness around healthier, more sustainable consumption.
TEAriffic Infusions
If you’re feeling adventurous or unsure of what to try, the TEAriffic Infusion range is the perfect way to experiment with flavor pairings. One standout from this range is the Pink Meteor 945, a delightful blend of Pink Guava, Perilla Plum, and Pomegranate Ruby Jelly. This combination of sweet, tangy, and fruity notes creates an explosion of flavor.
For a traditional yet unique experience, the Lychee Garden Earl Grey Tea is a standout. The aromatic floral tones of Earl Grey harmonize with the sweetness of lychee, resulting in a tea that’s both refreshing and sophisticated.

Whether you’re a bubble tea enthusiast or a first-time visitor, the variety of options ensures that there’s something for everyone.
