What to expect
The Blended Tiger Tea mixes Thai tea and milk tea into a creamy frozen drink. The Blended Coffee Milk Tea combines fresh-brewed coffee with milk tea for a smooth roasted flavor. Both are finished with chewy boba. Strawberry Calamansi offers a lighter contrast, pairing berry sweetness with a citrus finish.
Come for the drinks, stay for the ube
Cafe 86 built its menu around Filipino flavors, especially ube. Alongside tea and coffee, the official menu features ube drinks, milkshakes, cakes, truffles, and pastries. Pairing a drink with an ube pastry is an easy introduction to what makes the cafe different.
