NRA Show 2026 Chicago Recap
DaZheng Coffee Group just wrapped up an incredible exhibition at the NRA Show 2026 – one of the largest and most influential restaurant and hospitality events in the world. From May 16–19, 2026, we welcomed industry professionals from across the globe at McCormick Place, Booth 4825-3.
The energy was electric. The conversations were inspiring. And the interest in our equipment? Beyond expectations.

Automatic Milk Tea Machine: A Hit Across the Americas
One of the biggest surprises of the show was the overwhelming interest in our Automatic & Intelligent Milk Tea Machine.
While bubble tea has long been associated with Asia, we witnessed something remarkable in Chicago: North and South American operators are ready to embrace automated milk tea solutions.
From quick-service restaurants in Texas to bubble tea chains expanding across Brazil and Argentina, attendees were eager to learn how our one-touch, programmable milk tea machines can help them:
-
Standardize recipes across multiple locations
-
Reduce labor costs and training time
-
Ensure consistent quality cup after cup
The buzz around our LEHEHE automatic milk tea machine confirmed what we suspected: the Americas are ready for the next generation of automated beverage equipment.

Leap Coffee-Tea Machine: Dual Boiler Stability, Seamless Switching
Also drawing significant attention was our T&Z Leap Coffee-Tea Machine – a true hybrid solution designed for businesses that want flexibility without compromise.
What makes Leap special?
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Multi-boiler system | ±1°C temperature stability ensures perfect espresso extraction, shot after shot |
| Tea & coffee in one machine | Seamlessly switch between brewing espresso and extracting fresh tea |
| 12L large capacity boiler | Handles high-volume service during peak hours |
| T3 Temperature Control System | Maintains consistent heat for both coffee and tea brewing |
| Desktop design | No bar redesign needed – fits into existing coffee shop layouts |
The Leap was a hit among cafe owners looking to add tea to their menu without purchasing a separate machine. For small business owners with limited space and budget, the Leap offers a low-cost, high-value entry point into the growing tea beverage market.
One attendee from a growing coffee chain in Florida told us: “We’ve been wanting to add tea drinks, but didn’t want to crowd our bar. This is exactly what we needed.”
