My dad asked my mom around 4ish if we wanted a drink from Tea Maru. My hypothesis is that since he would be there to pick up my sister, and my mom was saying earlier how she'd like a drink, maybe those two things combined or something...so I'm getting a drink, and I'm not saying… Continue reading Maru Milk – Tea Maru
My friend and I went to go see Belle at the Spectrum, and our movie ended 10 minutes before the Alley closed, so we obviously needed to go get boba post movie! I was thinking that our 6:35 movie is basically 2 hours long, so we would barely make it in time for The Alley… Continue reading Cocoa Brown Sugar Deerioca Milk – The Alley
My mom has been wanting Soma recently, so my dad suggested today (Sunday) to be a good day to get a drink. He had this odd reasoning about Sundays being a good day for boba, something along the lines of the week winding down, but I can always go for boba, so… Today I thought… Continue reading Cocoa Milk Tea – Soma Tea & Mocktail
Recently my sister told me (I forget why) that she likes macarons. I told my parents recently, and so we started thinking of places to get macarons. The biggest macaron specialty place around here is Honey and Butter, but since it's in Spectrum it's slightly inconvenient, and my mom doesn't entirely care for cutesy macarons,… Continue reading Oolong Milk Tea (#5) – 7 Leaves Cafe
My sister is getting her Covid booster shot today, so since we were in the plaza, my mom figured we could stop by Sharetea and get a drink. She chose it over the new Pink Pig in the plaza, and Cha for Tea, but we have a closer Cha to home, so Sharetea it is.… Continue reading Fresh Milk Green Tea – Sharetea
Sometime last week I get a text from the system Tea Maru uses for a coupon, with the reason that they hadn't seen me in a while. It didn't say what it was, only that it was expiring on January 13. When I sampled input it into their online order system (since it's valid in… Continue reading Mango Fluffy Matcha – Tea Maru
My dad invited me to go to Trader Joe’s and with it, an Omomo visit. He wanted to go earlier, but I had a meeting, so we went a little later in the afternoon. Of course I won’t say no to a Trader Joe’s and Omomo run. The only problem would be the potential line,… Continue reading Jasmine Milk Tea (#2) – Omomo Tea Shoppe
Today I met up with a couple of my high school friends for lunch! Since another one works at Chick-fil-A, he unfortunately couldn't join us for lunch, and we were planning to stop by to say hi to him anyway, we chose to get our lunch there. After chatting for a bit, I suggested we… Continue reading Roasted Rice Milk Tea – One Zo
Phew, that drink name is a mouthful. Happy first boba of the new year! Anyway, today my parents needed to go to Costco to buy a few grocery items, and my dad suggested he stop by Tiger Sugar since it's in the general direction. I won't say no to boba, I haven't had boba this… Continue reading Black Sugar Boba Black Tea Latte Cream Mousse – Tiger Sugar
Today I hung out with a friend who moved to Laguna Nigel, along with another friend. We got Japanese food first, and then we headed to get boba. The kind of sad thing is that there is a significant lack of places in Laguna, so the closest place was in Mission Viejo, an entirely different… Continue reading Hokkaido Oolong Milk Tea – Ding Tea
