Tempo Tea Bar

What's in the box: A typical order is a five pack of ready to drink fruit bubble tea cans with popping boba, or a set of tea concentrate bottles for making drinks at home.

Tempo Tea Bar is a family-owned Scottish business that has been running since 2013. It sells ready to drink bubble tea in cans, plus tea concentrates and bundle boxes. Shoppers should know that the site does not offer a recurring subscription plan. Instead you buy one-off multipacks and bundles, and you can reorder whenever you like. The cans come in five packs in 330ml and 500ml sizes. They are fruit teas paired with popping boba, such as strawberry tea with mango pearls or blue grape tea with lychee pearls, and there is also a mixed pack. The concentrates let you mix drinks at home, and a four bottle bundle is said to serve 80. Tempo describes its drinks as low in sugar and calories, vegan and gluten free. It also says it was the first bubble tea to meet HFSS regulation, which will appeal to anyone who finds cafe boba too sweet. The company runs as a social enterprise and reinvests its profits in health and community projects. The range focuses on fruity flavours, so fans of milk tea with chewy tapioca pearls may find less to choose from. Seasonal drops, like the current Sweet & Sour range, add some variety. UK orders over £40 ship free, and the main can packs have a large number of customer reviews.
