The brand was the brainchild of Frotea owner, Engr. <strong>Ana Lustre Malijan<\/strong> who recognized the demand for quality milk tea and FroYo (frozen yoghurt) among consumers of all demographics on the island. Through this, Frotea became a cozy destination where people from all walks of life could enjoy a refreshing drink; from budget-conscious students, financially-stable young professionals, and adults in need of a well-deserved break.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI went back to Palawan straight out of college and I wanted to have something on the side. Something that would keep me busy aside from working with my family. There\u2019s something comforting about milk tea. It\u2019s something we look for and crave,\u201d said Engr Malijan.<\/p>\n<p>Recognizing the surge in popularity of milk tea and FroYo stores taking over the country, Engr. Malijan decided a change was needed. With this, Engr. Malijan and her team put all their attention into improving Frotea\u2019s strongest product: milk tea.<\/p>\n<p>In 2019, Frotea began importing all its ingredients directly from Taiwan. The company\u2019s full-service local commissary accommodates big volumes that ensure quality standards remain consistently high and the standard retail price (SRP) of their products stay low.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Frotea\u2019s renewed focus as a premier destination for authentic Taiwanese milk tea is reflected in the revamped look found in each store. Designed to inspire comfort and vibrance, each Frotea store reflects a true millennial milk tea lifestyle- which is also evident in the brand\u2019s mascots, Poppo and Bobba. Today Frotea is among the leading shops in the Philippines that specializes in authentic Taiwanese milk tea at insanely affordable prices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost people in Palawan didn\u2019t know what milk tea was.\u201d It was a very new concept to a lot of people here. People who usually traveled to Manila were our first customers and before we knew it, hype picked up through word-of-mouth. We got a lot of customers from curiosity,\u201d\u00a0added Engr. Malijan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-59108\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/02\/unnamed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/02\/unnamed.jpg 700w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/02\/unnamed-300x213.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em>Serving up fresh, authentic Taiwanese milk tea at insanely affordable prices\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>THE ALL-TIME FAVORITES<br \/>\n<\/strong>As a leading milk tea shop in the Philippines, Frotea offers a number of beloved customer favorites and bestsellers, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Oreo Cheesecake<\/strong><br \/>\nA standout among the Cheesecake Series of milk teas, this flavor harnesses a childhood favorite for a thick and tantalizingly decadent treat.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: left\"><strong>Ube Cheesecake<\/strong><br \/>\nA unique twist on a customer favorite that showcases a beloved Filipino ingredient.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: left\"><strong>Wintermelon<\/strong><br \/>\nA cherished favorite among milk tea fans all over the world, Frotea\u2019s signature winter melon milk tea is made with ingredients sourced directly from Taiwan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>FROTEA FOR YOU AND ME<\/strong><br \/>\nThis year, Frotea invites everyone\u00a0from all walks of life in every corner of the Philippines to cozy up and indulge with an irresistible cup of authentic Taiwanese milk tea.
