[请益] steeping 在文中的意思

有一篇文章关于台湾珍奶
In recent years, iced tea and hot tea have been making inroads
against coffee, but there are signs of stress: Starbucks recently
announced that it would shutter its stand-alone Teavana stores,
calling into question the future of a brand it bought for $620
million in 2012.
Bubble tea purveyors hope they can fill the void. Some shops offer
dozens of beverage options — like fruit-based teas, smoothies and
slushes — and some drinks even incorporate coffee (talk about
steeping with the enemy).
最后一行的steeping with the enemy要怎么理解比较好呢?
谢谢!

http://www.learnersdictionary.com/definition/steep选(verb) 就字面意思,然后发挥想像力steeping的意思主词是 tapioca balls ,"the enemy"指的是 coffee
