Milk tea isn't exactly a rare commodity; at least nowadays as you walk down the street, you will essentially find a milk tea shop every so often. And there are all sorts of brands, with franchises being incredibly numerous, though most who go into franchising for milk tea ultimately get a taste of what could only be described as cruelty.
