Some smell sweet but taste bitter. After repeated trial of blending different teas day by day, year by year, Lin Muhe finally confirmed the current classic recipe.

Strict control for the quality of the tea soup when cooking, together special eight-pull-ups tea-flushing method with certain techniques and delicate force to hit the tea into the milk, accomplishes the best Silk Stocking Milk Tea.
Brew milk tea in small copper pot for no more than 2 hours. The quality of the tea soup is strictly controlled during the process.
Tea bag made of fine cloth, originally the inner layer of the cotton-padded jacket, fully filters tea soup and finally produces milk tea softer and smoother. This is also why it was called the Silk Stocking Milk Tea.
The unique eight-pull-ups tea-flushing method well releases the fragrance of the tea, making the tea taste more balanced.
The first two pull-ups of tea bag are to have the floating and precipitated tea leaves, the selected Assam Black Tea from India combined with other 4 types of high-quality teas, blended together, so they are equally heated.
The next third and fourth pull-ups are to make tea fully exposed to the air, so that the taste is mellower.
The last four pull-ups allow the tea to settle and release the fragrance of the tea.
Pour milk from a high place into a cup filled with black tea, so that hot black tea and cold milk at room temperature can hit each other.
The full mixing of tea and milk ensures you a cup of creamy and full-bodied milk tea
