  • Question about the drink that I drank

    Every Thursday is my tea day. I've been changing it up every week since I can't get my usual Strawberry Milk Tea w/ Boba (I miss it so much!) Anyway, I've tried their decaffinated and unsweetened stuff, such as honey green tea and honey black tea. They were ok, but the black tea actually had caffeine in it and I had the jitters for the rest of the day!

    Anyway, long story short. I asked for something that didn't have any dairy, caffeine, or sugar in it. He ended up giving me a Vanilla Bean Milk Tea. He said it is non-dairy and sugar-free. So what the heck did they use? It looked like milk lol. I'm thinking it was some sort of powder in water. It was sooo good, and sweet.

    Think this is ok for induction? No sugar, caffeine, or milk...

    Most probably soy milk and vanilla extract. Most vanilla extracts are sweetened with corn syrup.

      I found this contact form for a company called 'Lollicup' who have that flavour of tea listed.
      Lollicup Boulder - Contact
      Maybe you can ask them for a list of ingredients to make sure there is nothing that is not 'legal' for your phase of Atkins?
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

        ^ Good find, it was previously called Lollicup but they changed their name to just Boba Tea House. I will ask next week if I can just get a run down of what they use. I know they use a lot of powder when they make their drinks. Thanks guys
