You Can Get Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Drinks & Stickers At Kung Fu Tea

I’m going to be real with you all here: Cyberpunk has largely passed me by. I’m well aware of the Cyberpunk universe, the release of Cyberpunk 2077, and the criticism the game got upon release for its bugs and glitches. I even tried playing it once, but unfortunately, I find anything first-person to be a bit of a trial, so I didn’t get far at all. What has made me sit up and pay attention, though, is the fact that the Cyberpunk franchise has joined forces with Kung Fu Tea. Once the collabs start coming, the bat signal appears in the sky, and I arrive.

Anyway, enough preamble. If you’re a Cyberpunk: Edgerunners fan, you’ll want to move quickly on this one. 

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners x Kung Fu Tea

Kung Fu Tea has just announced its new duo of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners-inspired flavors, following a few days of speculation and leaks about an impending release. It’s the latest in a long line of collaborations for the bubble tea chain, which in recent years has also teamed up with the Pikmin and Pokémon franchises. It also dropped a trio of hydration drink mixes earlier this year, in a slightly unexpected but not unwelcome move. 

Its new Cyberpunk: Edgerunners drinks don’t make any such promises of electrolyte replenishment, but they definitely sound good to me. The two drinks now available are:

• David’s Passion Fruit Overdrive Slush: Inspired by protagonist David Martinez (I may not know the series, but I’ll be damned if I don’t do my due diligence with research!), this drink is a blend of icy passion fruit slush and strawberry popping boba pearls. 
• Rebecca’s Coco Riot Milk Tea: The cyborg mercenary-turned-support-system-for-David gets a drink too, with a creamy coconut milk tea topped with brown sugar popping boba. 

Stickers!

But that’s not all, people! Alongside these new drinks, Kung Tu Tea is also giving out exclusive collectible stickers with each purchase, which will be available while supplies last. These drinks won’t last long, either: Kung Fu Tea will only be stocking them through November 22. 

For reasons mentioned above (the reasons being that I have very little relationship with the Cyberpunk franchise), I can’t speak to these drinks’ relatability to its fans. What I can speak to, though, is what I think about their flavors – and they both sound delightful to me. Passion fruit and strawberry are an odd choice as we go into winter, but I also appreciate the tropical, fruity, summery notes Kung Fu Tea is bringing to the table here, and the Coco Riot Milk Tea sounds comforting, straightforward, and very rich.
