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
Today my dad, boyfriend and I went to Stacks to have brunch. My dad has been meaning to go back to Stacks for awhile, and he mentioned he wanted to take my boyfriend here. It’s also convenient because it’s right next to Omomo, which is another boba must have when visiting around here I guess.… Continue reading Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea (#2) – Omomo Tea Shoppe
Today a friend, my boyfriend and I went to eat Korean soup, and Orobae was in the same plaza. Well, actually, my boyfriend was thinking about Korean tofu soup, and I suggested Koba because my parents and my other friend likes their tofu soup. I’m not much of a tofu soup person, so I got… Continue reading White Peach Osmanthus Oolong – Orobae
