Here's the second of the two Gong Cha 7/11 bottled drink collaboration! The second of the two bottles is a fruity tea, as opposed to the other milk tea. This one is made with sweet, juicy yellow peach, and Alishan Oolong Tea from Taiwan. The amount of fruit juice in here is 1%. The drink… Continue reading Alishan Ooolong Peach Tea-ade (阿里山烏龍ピーチティーエード) – Gong Cha
I’m in Sapporo because it’s a long weekend! Sunday’s Culture Day, and because it’s a Sunday, we get Monday off. Huzzah! I promise this is the last three day weekend of the year (boo). Today I’m back at The Tea to get a drink. Weirdly enough, they don’t have a matcha only option. They have… Continue reading Brown Sugar Matcha Milk (黒糖抹茶ミルク) – The Tea
As of July 2, 7/11 Japan has released a limited bottled tea collaboration with Gong Cha! Although they're just bottled teas with no boba (honestly, thank goodness because that probably wouldn't end up well), they're both Gong Cha tea products. I thought they tengentially fit the blog. There's two drinks in this collaboration, and first… Continue reading Brown Sugar Oolong Milk Tea (黒糖烏龍ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
Today I went to Shiraoi to check out the National Ainu Museum, Upopoy! I would have gotten boba there…except it seems like there isn’t any local boba at all. This made a good chance to get boba again in Sapporo, especially to check back at The Alley, another place I haven’t been to in a… Continue reading Grape Yogurt Smoothie with Tea (葡萄のティーグルト) – The Alley
A bit ago on my recent Taiwan trip, on August 11th, we made a day trip exploring some parts of Taichung. Speficially, we spent some time in Shen Ji Cultural Village, a small collection of vendors selling their handmade wares, some souvenir shops, and some cafes. One of these cafes is A Bite of Frozen,… Continue reading Mung Bean Soybean Douhua (緑豆豆花) – A Bite of Frozen
I’m back in Hokkaido after spending the long weekend in Aomori!

Today I went to Otaru to go check out Otaru Anime Party! I went early in the morning to go eat one of LeTao’s new seasonals, and then met up with a friend to go check out the festivities. We checked out the couple of event spaces, and then I gave him a brief Otaru… Continue reading Taiwan Fungui Fruit Tea Peach & Mixed Berry (台湾粉粿（フングイ）フルーツティピーチ＆ミックスべりー) – Mister Donut
Today’s a casual Saturday Sapporo trip, running around doing some shopping and eating seasonal foods. I was planing on ending my day with boba from The Tea, but it seems as of August 22, they closed this location and are moving to Cocono, opening on September 12. This was a bit of a plot twist,… Continue reading Earl Grey Milk Tea (アールグレイミルクティー) – Gong Cha
I never thought I'd write another protein adjacent review here, but here we are, back with another post on boba flavored protein. This time, it's a protein bar by the same company as the protein powder I tried a bit ago. I actually saw this on their website, along with a matcha flavor, that looked… Continue reading Layered Brown Sugar Bubble Tea Flavor Protein Bars – MyProtein
I did not expect to be in Sapporo this soon after my Taiwan trip, but one of my friends will be leaving Japan soon, and I likely won’t see her for a while. Today we had a casual hangout, and after saying our goodbyes, I got boba for the bus ride home. After my drink… Continue reading Blue Hawaii Milk Tea (ブルーハワイミルクティー) – Gong Cha
