Hong Kong Café’S Thick Milk Tea Cups Spark Debate, Unveiling Unexpected Benefits

A recent Facebook discussion has ignited controversy surrounding the design of milk tea cups at a Hong Kong café, with many users questioning the practicality of the cups due to their thick walls.

Some patrons voiced concerns, accusing the café of “shrinkflation” or misleading practices, assuming the thick cups were a way to reduce portion sizes.

However, others rushed to defend the café, revealing that the thicker cups are actually an intentional design feature. These cups are made from earthenware, which helps maintain the temperature of the hot milk tea, especially in air-conditioned settings where drinks can cool quickly.

The design enhances heat retention, allowing customers to enjoy their milk tea at an optimal temperature for longer periods. Additionally, the thicker material increases the surface area between the lips and the cup, providing a more satisfying drinking experience.

The café’s choice of cup design has turned out to be a clever solution to common challenges faced in maintaining the quality of hot beverages.
