CHAGEE's Signature Drink Gets a Meaningful Makeover: Introducing BO·YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA
In time for International Tea Day on 21 May, CHAGEE reintroduces its bestselling drink — with a new name that reflects its essence.
SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 21 May 2025 - This International Tea Day, CHAGEE unveils a new name for its global bestseller: BO·YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA. More than a name change, BO·YA reflects what the tea truly stands for — connection, craftsmanship, and flavour that resonates beyond taste.
With over 600 million cups sold annually, this is CHAGEE's most beloved drink. The new name honours its popularity while shining a light on the artistry behind every cup.
A new name for a timeless craft
While jasmine green tea is common in Southeast Asia, not all jasmine teas are created equal. Many rely on artificial sprays or oil-based flavourings to mimic fragrance, resulting in tea that smells strong but tastes hollow.
BO·YA is different. Crafted using a traditional multi-round scenting method, fresh jasmine blossoms are layered over green tea leaves each night at peak bloom, then removed by hand and replaced over multiple cycles. The leaves absorb not just the scent, but the soul of the flowers — leaving behind no petals, only a naturally layered aroma.
The tea itself is a blend of two premium teas: Yunnan high-mountain leaves, prized for depth, and Fujian Da Bai Hao, known for clarity. Every batch is handpicked at the standard of "one bud and two leaves", then transformed through CHAGEE's artisan process.
A tea steeped in meaning
The name BO·YA draws from the Chinese legend of Bo Ya and Ziqi — a musician and woodcutter who formed a rare friendship through deep understanding. Their story inspired the phrase zhī yīn (知音) — someone who truly hears and understands you.
Today, BO·YA speaks to that same kind of connection. It's about discovering something that just clicks — like finding a favourite tea or sharing a quiet moment with someone who simply gets it.
More than a drink
With the renaming of its most iconic drink, CHAGEE continues its mission to elevate tea culture for a new generation, bridging heritage with modernity.
"BO·YA holds special significance to us. It's more than just our bestselling drink; it reflects what CHAGEE stands for," said Eugene Lee, Chief Marketing Officer, CHAGEE APAC. "As we expand across the region, we stay rooted in tradition while looking ahead. With BO·YA, we hope to share not just a beautifully crafted tea, but a moment of connection — with flavour, culture, and each other."
The rename also caps off a banner year for CHAGEE's international expansion. With successful entries into Indonesia and the United States, and more stores launching across APAC, BO·YA is set to lead the way — not just as a drink, but as a symbol of CHAGEE's evolving global identity.

BTS' Suga Officially Discharged from Military Service
It's official—Suga, member of global K-pop phenomenon BTS, has completed his mandatory military service in South Korea, making him the last of the septet to do so. His quiet discharge on Saturday, June 21, wraps up a major chapter for the band, setting the stage for a long-anticipated reunion. Big Hit Music, BTS' management label, confirmed in a statement: 'We confirm that Suga effectively completed his alternative service on June 18 by using his remaining leave. His official discharge date is June 21.' Unlike the public fanfare that surrounded some of his fellow members' releases, Suga opted for a low-key exit from service due to concerns over crowd control. The rapper and producer served as a social service agent—an alternative to active duty—following a prior shoulder surgery. He's been on hiatus with BTS since the group paused collective activities in 2022, when Jin first enlisted. What's next for BTS? With all seven members—RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook—now free of military obligations, the road is wide open for a massive comeback. According to an NH Securities report, the band's biggest-ever world tour is expected to launch in 2026, although Big Hit has yet to confirm any dates. Shortly after his discharge, Suga took to Weverse to thank fans and offer a heartfelt apology, referencing a drunk-driving incident in 2023 that led to a court-imposed fine of 15 million won (around AED 40,000). 'I'm sorry for the disappointment and concern caused by what happened last year,' he wrote. Fans across the globe are already gearing up for what could be a historic return. One thing's clear—ARMY's wait might finally be coming to an end.
