TP Tea (short for Taiwan Professional Tea, Chinese: 茶湯會; pinyin: Chátānghuì), formerly known as Tea Pa Tea, is a subsidiary of Chun Shui Tang, which is known for the inventor of Bubble milk tea. Similar to most bubble tea shops in Taiwan, TP Tea only sells bubble tea, though snacks are sold occasionally for a limited time.
