Bubble tea has become a staple for many of us, but few stop to think of all the waste generated with each single-use plastic cup that comes with our favourite beverage.

To encourage sustainability, the National Museum is giving out free Milk Tea from Gong Cha to anyone who visits their Packaging Matters exhibition with their own bottle in hand. Do note that straws will not be given out as well, so bring along your own reusable ones. Hopefully, this initiative will spark a good habit that will last long after the incentives end.

P.S.: Check out our guide to different types of reusable straws here if you’re not sure which is the best type for you.

Note: Limited to first 200 redemptions per day
