Black & White

70 years ago, Black & White was one of the first brands of evaporated milk available in Hong Kong and now has an important place in the hearts of customers, consumers and employees of FrieslandCampina Hong Kong.

Milk tea… Hong Kong style

The lives of the inhabitants of Hong Kong are closely connected with tea shops; local restaurants where people enjoy food and drink milk tea. Tea with milk served in the Hong Kong fashion is extremely popular and goes back to the days of British colonialism. Originally, the inhabitants were influenced by English customs, such as drinking Ceylon tea with milk and sugar, but in Hong Kong there was a need for a stronger flavour. Hence a stronger blend of tea leaves was combined with the smoothness and aroma of full-cream condensed milk. Black & White, produced in Leeuwarden (the Netherlands), proved to be the perfect addition to tea.
