I rarely attend food tastings. However, I couldn’t resist the opportunity when I heard about the opening of Singapore’s very first Go Ba! (果霸茶) tea. Being a huge bubble tea enthusiast, I knew I had to experience their beverages firsthand.
For those unfamiliar with the brand, Go Ba! (果霸茶) tea is one of Taiwan’s leading beverage brands. It is renowned for its high-quality, freshly blended juices, fruit teas, and bubble teas. Since its establishment in 2020, the brand has rapidly expanded across Taiwan, with 16 locations. Now, in 2024, it has made its international debut in Singapore. It brings a slice of authentic Taiwanese flavours to our island. This is also the second Taiwanese bubble tea brand that I have genuinely loved and been very impressed with.
Go Ba! (果霸茶) tea isn’t just a beverage brand—it’s a celebration of Taiwan’s rich agricultural heritage. Every drink is a reflection of the island’s world-class fruits and tea culture.
The brand is rooted in three core values: quality, authenticity, and inclusivity. Quality is paramount, as they use only the finest ingredients to craft their beverages. You can truly taste the difference with each sip. Whether you’re enjoying one of their freshly blended juices or a traditional bubble tea, each drink is made with meticulous attention to detail. They ensure every detail is perfect. This ensures an exceptional experience every time.
What stands out to me is Go Ba!’s (果霸茶) commitment to authenticity. Their emphasis is on real ingredients. They use cane sugar, pure honey, and premium milk sourced from New Zealand and Australia. This means you’re getting natural, rich flavours with every cup. There are no artificial sweeteners here, just pure, wholesome ingredients that leave you craving more. For me, it’s the perfect balance of flavour and freshness.
My Go Ba! Tea (果霸茶) Must-Try List
Here are some of their best sellers that I truly enjoyed and recommend you try. If you are a true tea aficionado, you must try their Alishan Jin Xuan Tea priced at $3.20 (M), $4.00 (L), or $3.60 (Hot). This tea is one of the most delicate teas. It is one of the most fragrant plain teas that I have tasted. I have enjoyed it in a while.
If you are looking for a refreshing drink on a hot day, you can’t go wrong. Try their Dragon Fruit Honey Lemon Juice priced at $6.20 (M) or Mid-Summer Fruit Full Tea priced at $6.40 (M) and $7.60 (L). And if you like lychee as I do, try their Beauty Lychee Milk Tea priced at $3.80 (M), $4.80 (L) or $4.30 (Hot) with brown sugar pearls. It’s light, fragrant and delicious.
But my absolute favourite is their Old-Fashion Millet Milk Smoothie priced at $6.80. It was creamy, nutty, grainy (in a good way) and simply put – nostalgia in a cup!
