This is the Orchid Scented Green Milk Tea with Matcha ($8.80, fixed ice, light sugar) from ChaHalo, featuring the an orchid-scented maofeng green milk tea topped with matcha.

The drink presented a distinct two-tone appearance, with a white base transitioning to a green upper layer. When consumed chilled, the milk tea offered a gentle orchid aroma and a smooth, lightly floral flavour. As the matcha gradually mixed through, its grassy and vegetal intensity overtook the floral nuance, leaving only faint orchid traces in the background. The addition of matcha also introduced a subtle astringency and faint grittiness to the texture. While aesthetically appealing, the combination diluted the tea’s original balance, resulting in a less refined profile.

Overall, the pairing of matcha with orchid-scented milk tea proved visually attractive but diminished the delicacy of the base tea.

This Orchid Scented Green Milk Tea with Matcha was purchased from ChaHalo in Sydney, Australia in November 2025.
