It can't always be

The post taps into a common sentiment of supporting local businesses over large chains, using relatable competitor brands to frame the value proposition of TP Tea.

The video highlights TP Tea as a local alternative to popular boba chains like Heytea and Molly tea. It suggests that TP Tea is a place that "holds it down" in the community.

TP Tea ACTS - it is a tea shop that serves drinks. Removing it would change what happens in the video because the video is about this specific shop. Heytea APPEARS - it is a competitor brand mentioned for context. Removing it would not change what happens in the video. Molly tea APPEARS - it is a competitor brand mentioned for context. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
