Debutea

Debutea Debutea is a vibrant tea room located on Thompson Street, known for its commitment to crafting unique and flavorful beverages. Recently, they introduced Organic Ginger Mini Rice Balls, which are made from freshly squeezed organic young ginger juice and fragrant Thai glutinous rice flour, providing a delightful chewy texture. These rice balls are simmered in cane sugar syrup to offer a comforting sweetness.

Additionally, Debutea showcases THÉ OSMANTHUS, featuring Sun Moon Lake Ruby Red tea harvested in the summer of 2024. This fully fermented tea is celebrated for its distinctive aroma that blends hints of mint, wood, and sweet fruit resulting in an amber-hued liquor with a refreshing and smooth taste. The tea is served with toppings like the handmade organic ginger mini rice balls.

Emphasizing the beauty of natural fragrances, Debutea incorporates Osmanthus into their offerings. This exquisite scent evokes feelings of warmth and nostalgia, reminiscent of late autumn and homecoming.

One moment it’s a basket of fresh lychees.
The next, it’s ice, tea, fruit, and motion.

The blender runs. The colors change. The fragrance lifts.

For a few weeks each year, the shop smells different.

The counter gets sticky. The trash fills with lychee shells.
Someone is always peeling another batch.
Maybe that‘s why summer tastes so good.

Summer starts to taste like peach again. 🍑

The first white peaches of the season have arrived.

For a few short weeks each year, peaches become part of our summer menu—sweetened by sunlight, softened by time, and paired with tea while the season is still young.

At Débutea, we don‘t make the same drinks all year round. Some flavors belong to a season, and peach is one of them.

Our Peach Collection is now available.

For the season only.
