They're still in some convenience stores, but the discount snack shop near my place had them on sale for 69 yen. That's generally a sign that they're liquidating their stock!Orchid64https://www.blogger.com/profile/07132543155589881288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893380621848637984.post-26765727132659669272010-01-23T21:35:06.247-08:002010-01-23T21:35:06.247-08:00hi! i'm british through and through and conseq...hi! i'm british through and through and consequently am addicted to tea. just got back from a holiday in japan and discover the royal tea drinks.

They're still in convenience stores though (at full price).Orchid64https://www.blogger.com/profile/07132543155589881288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893380621848637984.post-80324853152860428342010-01-14T15:00:55.124-08:002010-01-14T15:00:55.124-08:00I just had it, recently bought it in Osaka, Japan....I just had it, recently bought it in Osaka, Japan.

That being said, it's not as sweet or milky as royal milk tea. I also use lowfat milk to top mine off! ;-)<br /><br />If you can't find any, I'll pick you up one, but they're everywhere right now in convenience stores. The hub got this one at New Days and I saw more at 7-11.
