Thai Milk Tea – Cha for Tea

I’m very tired, since I did not get much sleep last night and I still attended class today. Took one test, one more to go (which I gotta study more for, yikes), and one more this week. This fire nearby kind of destroyed my routine and productivity (first world problem, I know), but that’s a whole other story for another day. Thankfully I’m back home and somewhat comfortable, which also means a reality check and all my upcoming exams this week.

I could really use some energy and caffeine…which is a great occasion for boba :). Some of the places are still closed today out of consideration for the smoky environment, which is understandable, but luckily Cha for Tea seemed to be open! I checked the online order menu, which was working, so I assumed it was open.

I went with my old default drink and my other go-to from Cha, their Thai Tea! (Now to explore their menu in my future orders…) Cha’s Thai Tea has such a good classic Thai tea taste, though I do think it’s hard to really mess up Thai tea. I guess that also means it can be hard to be a super outstanding one though. I do think that today the flavor is slightly watered down, not noticeable unless I linger on the drink, but I suspect it might be because I said “Classic 2 pumps” on the online order for sweetner (at least, I’d like to place my faith in Cha, so I’m going to make an external attribution). Usually when I order in store I just say half sugar, and before when I’ve had it it’s been great. I think the maximum is 5, so maybe they do 3 for half.

The boba today is great as usual, super chewy, and just a little bit sweet! And such a good amount! Alright, now to attempt to be productive with this caffeine in my system…
