Instructions

  1. [Usage Secret]
  2. [Set Cup] Place the cup with drink, ice, and boba into the machine's round slot.
  3. [Clank! (Seal)] The machine moves automatically (or via manual lever), a hot heater descends, and heat-seals the film to the cup rim. Simultaneously, excess film is cut cleanly in a circle.
  4. [Shake vigorously] Hermetically sealed with film, so contents absolutely won't spill no matter how violently shaken upside down. Allows perfectly mixing sunken syrup and boba.
  5. When drinking, forcefully pierce the film 'pop!' with the sharp diagonal tip of a special thick straw.

Trivia

[For Everyone] A great invention in late 1980s Taiwan that revolutionized drink culture. The massive Taiwanese industry of 'Shouyao Bei (Hand-shaken cup drinks)' developed explosively because this machine enabled 'spill-free carrying' and 'the fun of piercing with a straw'. A Taiwan-born world-standard kitchen star always found in Japanese boba shops.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] Hang it on a scooter handle or carry it swinging violently in a bag, and it won't spill at all; the ultimate sealing power supporting Taiwan's scooter society!
