Lan Fong Yuen invented 'silk-stocking' milk tea in 1952 — the drip-bag kits get surprisingly close with evaporated milk (buy a can of Black & White brand to complete the kit)
Tea and packaged drinks clear US and Indian customs without issue
Cha chaan teng merch (pineapple-bun plushies, minibus-sign magnets, Bolshevik-red diner mugs) is everywhere in Mong Kok stationery shops for HK$20-60 — cheap, genuinely local gifts
Skip airport gift-pack markups; supermarkets sell the same boxes for less
