Bottoms Up - Tea Purple

With so many coffee shops in Korea, it's always nice to be able to find a tea shop. My favorite Korean tea chain is Tea Purple. With actual tea leaves and not those made of powder or bagged leaves, the fresh scent in each cup of tea leaves the mouth watering for more. For those who are looking for something more modern, there are a handful of milk tea and frappe choices as well. 

Averaging $5-6 per drink, it is a must visit for anyone who is looking to dodge a coffee shop in Korea. Going with a group of friends who are looking for coffee? No problem, they also have a selection of coffee and fruit drinks to accommodate all taste buds. One recommendation that I must make is the Milk Tea Frappe along with the Choco-chip Cheesecake. It is a twist to the traditional cheesecake and milk tea by having a blend of sweetness. 

I am definitely a big fan of Tea Purple and just can't get enough of this spot. It's grown to be a weekly visit for me with wifi and a great setting. Next time you're in town, be sure to try a specialty tea drink! With locations all across Seoul, the most popular spots are in tourist areas which include my one favorite in Gangnam from exit 11.
