Drink Across Singapore Budget · under US$8 tea

What Teh tarik is

Pulled milk tea, frothy and sweet.

Teh tarik is listed as a drink in the Singapore guide, where the index tags it tea. The index uses those labels to make an unfamiliar menu legible. What it cannot tell you is how this particular kitchen seasons, fries or plates the dish, so leave room to ask.

Where to find Teh tarik

Teh tarik is listed as nationwide rather than tied to one city, so it is a safe thing to look for wherever you land in Singapore. Look for a place that makes it in front of you rather than pouring it from a bottle that has sat all day.

The Singapore guide also covers 6 dishes and 2 bakery items; open the country page for the full menu and the other places in the index.

Teh tarik: common questions

What is Teh tarik?

Pulled milk tea, frothy and sweet. It is listed in the TasteBridge Singapore guide as a drink.

How much does Teh tarik cost in Singapore?

Expect the budget band: usually under US$8. Prices move with the city and the venue, so treat this as a planning figure rather than a fixed menu price.

Is Teh tarik vegetarian?

Teh tarik is not tagged vegetarian in our data, because the tag is aimed at dishes rather than drinks. A plain black coffee, tea or fruit drink usually contains nothing animal-based, but milk, cream, honey, egg white or a pre-mixed powder can change that, so ask what goes in the cup.

Where can I try Teh tarik?

Our index lists it across Singapore, so it is not tied to one address. Ask locally which version is served at breakfast, lunch or late evening, because the same name can cover different presentations.
