Back in uni, one of my guilty pleasures was hanging out in Jurong Point to snack on the wealth of food options there, including KOI’s Earl Grey Milk Tea and Garrett’s CheeseCorn popcorn. However, never in a million years would I have guessed that my two faves would collaborate on such a scale that’ll have sweet tooths islandwide salivating with excitement.
KOI and Garrett have recently announced the new Pop Pop Tea Latte, and it is exactly as it sounds. The concoction boasts what looks like KOI’s Black Latte that’s topped with Garrett’s CaramelCrisp popcorn. Despite the partnership, the drink is only available at KOI outlets.

Unsurprisingly, the Pop Pop Tea Latte puts a lil’ pop in your wallet—costing $4.40 for a medium cup and $6.10 for a large one. However, if you rationalise it as getting both a premium snack and BBT at under $4.50, the purchase will seem a lot more worthwhile.
Before you take the plunge and spring to your nearest KOI store, do note that the drink is only available at 12 outlets. They are:
As of writing, there’s no end date to the availability of the Pop Pop Tea Latte. But conventional wisdom dictates that queues for new bubble tea products will be insane, so get your popcorn x milk tea fix ASAP before news get round!
