True enough, these guys who invented milk teas are geniuses? making tea in the most tasteful kind of way. So from a converted non tea-lover like me, starting today, I am going to recommend to you my personal top 4 choices (not ranked in any way) for the milk tea places in Cebu.

Promos: Loyaltea Cards -for customers who have bought products at least twice; it gives them a free add-on or free drink after a particular number of visits/ purchase; Expansion plans are also on the way.
A bit of chitchat with the owners: Heart Tea started out as a product franchise from Manila. They named it "Heart Tea" because the products are good for the heart--healthy, packed with vitamins and minerals and detoxifying. What they are trying to say is that the products are both good for the heart and the pocket.
Tomorrow, we venture into another milk tea place that has me converted. Keep posted!
