NEW YORK, Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — This October, the internet’s favorite penguins, Pax Pengu and Polly, are waddling into the Kung Fu Tea boba-verse with two character-inspired drinks, collectible surprises, and IRL moments leading into New York Comic Con.

KFT x Pudgy Penguins

Known as “mates for life,” Pax Pengu and Polly have become a playful way for fans to express friendship and love through memes and collectibles. Now, they’re bringing that same “better together” energy into the Kung Fu Tea world.

At the center of the collaboration are two limited-edition sips, each inspired by one half of the duo perfect for couples who love to share.

  • Pengu’s Better Together Milk Tea inspired by Pax Pengu, pairs Kung Fu Tea’s signature earl grey milk tea with chewy brown sugar boba for a creamy, comforting sip that proves some things really are better together.

  • Polly’s Sweetheart Slush brings a sweeter side to the pairing, blending strawberry and OREO® Cookie Pieces into a creamy, icy slush inspired by Polly. It’s a treat worthy of the Collector Couple’s sweetheart. 

But the experience doesn’t end after the last sip. Guests who purchase a featured Pudgy Penguins drink can receive an exclusive VIBES by Pudgy Penguins collectible trading card. Fans can also keep the fun going with exclusive first-look access to the coveted Pudgy Penguins Little Treats Blind Boxes at 100 participating Kung Fu Tea locations nationwide.

The collaboration heads to the New York Comic Con show floor. From October 8 to 11, fans can discover Pudgy Penguins at NYCC (booth 2821) powered by WALMART. Qualifying Little Treats Blind Box purchases at the booth will come with an exclusive KFT BOGO voucher for participating NYC stores during Comic Con weekend.

The collaboration marks another step in Kung Fu Tea’s effort to turn boba into more than a drink, creating shared experiences that bring people together around culture, fandom, and community. It also marks Pudgy Penguins fast rise into the world of beverages feeding off their incredible blend of storytelling and collectibles that surround their world of comfort and joy.

The Kung Fu Tea × Pudgy Penguins collaboration runs from October 1 through October 15, 2026, at Kung Fu Tea locations nationwide. Select collectibles and retail experiences will be available at the locations while supplies last.
