How to Build a CHAGEE-Style Jasmine Milk Tea in Your AU Shop

CHAGEE's signature is a jasmine milk tea built as a "tea latte" — tea-forward, lightly sweetened, with real milk, so the jasmine tea is what you actually taste. It's the drink customers order when they find most bubble tea too sweet.

Their exact recipe is proprietary, and this isn't a copy of it. What follows is a shop-grade build in the same style: a clean, tea-forward jasmine milk tea you can make consistently on a busy counter. Treat the ratios as a starting point and dial them to your own palate.

What You'll Need

• [Jasmine green tea](https://bubbletea-supply.com.au/products/jasminegreentea_1kg) — the whole drink rests on this, so it's the ingredient not to cut.
• Fresh milk (or a barista milk of your choice)
• [Cane sugar syrup](https://bubbletea-supply.com.au/products/fructose_5kg) — for controllable, clean sweetness
• Ice

That's it. The style is defined by restraint, so the short ingredient list is the point.

The Build

1. Brew a strong jasmine base. Brew the jasmine green tea stronger than you'd drink it straight — it has to stand up to milk and ice without disappearing. A concentrated hot brew, then cooled, holds the aroma better than a weak brew stretched with water.

2. Set a tea-forward ratio. Aim for roughly 3 parts tea base to 2 parts milk as a starting point — more tea than a typical milk tea, because the tea is meant to lead. If it tastes milky rather than floral, push the tea share up.

3. Sweeten lightly. Add cane sugar syrup to taste, but keep it low — this style lives or dies on not being sweet. If you run customer-set sweetness levels, set the default lower than your other milk teas.

4. Build over ice and finish. Pour over ice, stir, and serve. No topping is needed — the drink is about the tea, not what's floating in it. If a customer wants chew, a light addition is fine, but the default should be clean.

Variations Worth Offering

• Roasted oolong version: swap the jasmine for roasted oolong for a deeper, toastier milk tea that suits cooler months.
• Hot pour: the same ratio works hot — skip the ice and brew slightly less concentrated.

The B2B Angle

This drink sells on quality, not toppings, which makes it a strong margin line: the cost sits almost entirely in tea and milk, both of which scale cleanly. It also positions your shop with the coffee-literate customer who wants craft over spectacle — the same person who'll pay for a good flat white.
