[IN THE NEWS] Celebrate National Crème Brûlée Day With Seven Sips

Bubble tea for National Creme Brulee Day

Determining the creamiest of the famous food holidays?

As in, those delightful days when a drink, dessert, main course, appetizer, or snack stands tall in the national spotlight?

That really is up to the palate of the beholder, of course, and acting otherwise is an exercise in distinctly non-creamy frustration.

Clam chowder, which has its special day in late February, is mighty creamy, and chocolate mousse, a foodie favorite from early April, certainly qualifies in the ultra-creamy category, too.

But crème brûlée might just wear the national food calendar's creamy crown, for every luscious spoonful seems richer and thicker than the next.

July 27, then, just might be the creamiest day of the year, for that's when the elegant dessert, a cream-centered confection that typically comes with a sugary burnt crust and velvety undercarriage, is on the sweet centerstage.

Sunright Tea Studio, which has a number of locations around Southern California, will be celebrating the tasty Tuesday occasion by moving seven crème brûlée beverages to the flavorful foreground.

That's right, there are not one, not two, but seven sips themed to the delectable dessert at the bubble tea shop, including a Ceylon brûlée latte, a brûlée latte that boasts matcha, and an Oreo brûlée boba milk.
