Karun Thai Tea, the Bangkok-based tea brand known for their rich milk teas and playful flavors, is marking their 7th anniversary by opening their first location outside Thailand. And the tea brand is landing in Hong Kong!
The brand announced the milestone on Instagram, inviting fans to "celebrate its next chapter together." Karun hasn't shared the new shop's address or a specific opening date, but the timing lines up with a giveaway that flies winners to Hong Kong in late October, hinting at when doors might open.
Karun, which opened in 2019, built its Bangkok following on classic Thai iced milk tea, roasted variations, and a rotating menu of fruit- and floral-infused riffs. The Hong Kong shop marks the brand's first step outside of Thailand — a fitting jump to a city that takes its bubble tea seriously.
To mark the occasion, Karun is running a giveaway for their membership program from Aug. 15 to Sept. 15, 2026. Every THB700 spent on a single receipt earns one entry, and entries stack. Separate smaller receipts can't be combined to qualify.
What's the prize? Round-trip business-class tickets to Hong Kong. Four sets of two seats. Winners also receive a "Karun Travel Kit," which includes a voucher for special menu items at the new Hong Kong shop and dining credit at Anping Grill or Master Beef Prime.
Karun is also giving away seven Regular Tea Sets, seven weeks of free daily Thai tea (one cup a day), and seven bundles of seven free toppings.
Winners will be announced on Sept. 21, 2026 across Karun's Facebook, Instagram, and LINE accounts, with final confirmations from the winners by Sept. 25. The prize trip is scheduled for Oct. 23 to 25, 2026. Entrants need an active Karun Membership account. Catering orders are not counted toward the giveaway, and only one grand prize is allowed per person. Full contest rules are available through Karun's social media channels.
Karun has yet to publish their Hong Kong menu. But their Thailand lineup offers a solid preview for curious tea lovers. The core menu spans traditional Thai milk and black teas, roasted Assam, barley, and genmaicha versions, and specialty flavors like sweet osmanthus and cherry berry.
There are more dessert-like combinations that mix yuzu, apple, coconut, and more, while those seeking healthier options can swap in oat, almond, or soy milk.
Every drink is customizable by ice level and sugar percentage, as is typical parlance in a milk tea store. Their topping bar covers homemade boba, brown sugar konjac, whipped cream, and cookie crumble, among others. Karun also offers a slushie lineup, bottled teas for on-the-go, gelato, and seasonal flavors.
