Gong Cha’s Exciting New Offering: Taiwanese Tofu Pearl

Gong Cha Japan, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has announced the launch of an innovative dessert tea called 'Taiwanese Tofu Pearl' on November 6, 2025. This delightful concoction combines the smooth and silky Taiwanese dessert, Tofu (Douhua), with chewy tapioca pearls, creating a unique flavor experience that is expected to be highly popular.

The Trendy Taiwanese Dessert

Tofu, a delicacy originating from Taiwan, is made from coagulated soy milk and has gained immense popularity as the next favorite Asian sweet among Generation Z. Its soft, jiggly texture makes it an appealing choice for those looking for something different in the dessert market. Gong Cha's new product, featuring Tofu, has been selected as the top entry in the 'Crew Championship' competition, which encourages staff to develop their own drink ideas. After extensive internal reviews and customer votes via social media, this drink secured the first place among over 400 submissions.

The key feature of the drink is the specially crafted Tofu, made to perfectly complement Gong Cha’s unique tea. Customers will enjoy the delicate aroma of soy milk along with a subtle sweetness. The drink consists of rich black milk tea combined with Gong Cha’s signature Tofu and chewy tapioca pearls, all topped off with a drizzle of chocolate sauce. Two variations are available—one offering the creamy richness of milk tea and the other providing an exciting slushy experience with Gelati. Customers will find themselves drawn to the distinct textures and flavors in every sip.

Early Sales and Availability

Ahead of the official launch, the Taiwanese Tofu Pearl will be available for early purchase starting October 30 at select locations: the Lalaport Toyosu store, the Akihabara Chuo Street store, and the Yokosuka Chuo store where the drink was conceived.

Gong Cha aims to continuously innovate and introduce new tea cultures to its customers, providing 'joyful tea time' experiences.
