A Sweet New Arrival on Singapore’s Streets
Tiger Sugar, the Taiwanese boba sensation, is ready to take over Capitol Piazza this Saturday, 3 Nov.*
If you’re craving something creamy, chewy, and a little fancy, get your taste buds on standby.
Where the Buzz Is
Location: Basement of the chic Capitol Piazza mall, a stone’s throw from City Hall MRT.
Opening Hours: 11 am – 10 pm, everyday until stock runs out.
The Star Drinks
The menu isn’t just a list—think of it as the highlight reel of a snack‑tasting show.
Signature Brown‑Sugar Boba
Black‑sugar syrup, fresh milk, airy cream mousse, and the classic dark‑sugar boba pearls (two sizes).
Price: $3.50 – $5.30, depending on how much storm you want.
Tea‑Based Variants
Milk‑tea or tea‑latte options. Pick either black or green tea.
Tip: Shake the cup a solid fifteen times before you dive in—those tiger‑stripe patterns will meld into a tasty swirl.
How It’s Made: Behind the Scenes
The Process:
Freshly boiled pearls cooked in tiny batches (≈3 min each).
A six‑step assembly line, each stage guarded by a specialist.
Final quality check before it lands in your hands.
The Ice Game:
Ice shaped like the sort of crystals that accompany whisky—delivers perfect chill and stops your drink from turning into a drippy puddle in Singapore’s heat.
Trevor Fong, CEO of Clover Lifestyle (Tiger Sugar’s Singapore arm), rolled up his sleeves in Taiwan for 10 days of hands‑on training, even passing practical and written tests.
Special Perks & Future Plans
Free Tattoo: From Saturday to Tuesday, every drink comes with a temporary tattoo (only 200 each day).
Second Outlet Coming Soon: By December, another spot will pop up by yet another MRT station, expanding the tiger‑hunt.
For the Insta‑Generation
The distinct “tiger stripe” effect (brown sugar mixing with milky swirl) isn’t just visual—it’s hypo‑chaotic comforting.
Each drink is a hand‑crafted masterpiece; no two “tigers” will look exactly alike, making every sip an adventure.
Drop by, grab a cup, and let’s see if this sweet dream lives up to its hype. Oh, and remember—if you let the stripes sit, they’ll dissolve in three minutes. So, a quick shake, a tasty bite, and you’re golden!
