Ding Tea - Review - New Malden - London - The Infatuation

"Ding Tea is a bubble tea franchise with locations across four different continents. Although we can’t speak for all of them, we can speak for this spacious New Malden spot when we say that it’s serious about bubble tea. They don’t faff about with any fruit boba. Instead they focus on tapioca, golden pearls, and a selection of other toppings like red beans and grass jelly. The intensity of the tea can be quite strong with some of the oolong and black tea bases, so if you want a lighter tea, go with mango green tea or the brown sugar pearl milk. Pop in for a catch-up or a solo bubble tea—and if you manage to nab the sofas by the window, know you’re in the best seats for people-watching." - Rianne Shlebak
