January 19 was a pretty busy day: I ran some errands with my parents, tried a new local bakery, got boba with my sister, and then dropped her off at school for the spring semester. Boba of choice was from Jam Jam, because we haven't been for a while. Mostly because my sister usually gets… Continue reading Snow Blossom Jasmine Milk Tea – Jam Jam Tea Lab
January 18 was a chill day. My family went out to dinner, but during the day, my sister and I went to Bako! Next up on my milk tea list was the roasted oolong. Generally the flavor profile is pretty predictable. Boba as usual. The drink tasted as expected: the tea flavor was very roasty… Continue reading Roasted Oolong Tea Latte – Bako Tea House
On January 17, my sister and I took a drive out to TP Tea! Actually, we were going to go to Bako, but when we tried online ordering, they had no boba... The velvet series still looked appealing, and I was intrigued by the lychee series they had going on. For a milk tea, they… Continue reading Velvet Lychee Fresh Milk Tea – TP Tea
On January 16, I went to 99 Ranch for some groceries. My sister tagged along, and for our boba of the day, we went with HeyTea. It's in the same plaza, and I figured I'd give HeyTea another chance for their very viral drinks. One of their famous items is their matcha. Although there's a… Continue reading Supreme Matcha Latte – HeyTea
On January 15, my sister and I ventured out to the new Omomo location in Tustin! The Irvine one is always packed with a line at any time of day, and we saw on Instagram the Tustin one was in its soft opening phase. Although just slightly more of a drive, we hoped that there… Continue reading Magnolia Milk Tea – Omomo Tea Shoppe
On January 14th, my sister and I went to Bopomofo! I believe they were doing a promotion for the first fifteen days of the year that their popular drinks had a discount, so we wanted to go get something before the campaign was over. I opted for the ba-la matcha, which is a matcha latte… Continue reading BA-LA Matcha – Bopomofo Cafe
On January 13, I dropped my sister off at her friend's house for a hangout. On the way there, we stopped by TPTea for boba! We left around later in the afternoon, so I didn't want anything too heavy on the caffeine. I noticed TPTea had a wintermelon drink on the menu, so that was… Continue reading Winter Melon Fresh Milk Tea – TP Tea
On January 12th, we woke up early to go to airport and leave Seattle...after hanging out in the airport lounge together for a bit, my boyfriend and I parted ways to get on our separate dlights, and then it was a short flight home to Southern California! My family came to pick me up, and… Continue reading Velvet Snow Jasmine Fresh Milk Tea – TP Tea
On January 10th, my boyfriend and I were chilling in Seattle with no real plans. We went to the local chinatown, ate some claypot rice for lunch, and checked out the Wing Luke Asian American Museum! Of course if you're in Chinatown, there has to be boba present...so we stopped by Seattle Best Tea, which… Continue reading Jasmine Milk Tea – Seattle Best Tea
On January 9th, my boyfriend's cousin took us to tour the Expedia office! As we were having lunch, the fire alarm went off...but luckily, it was a false alarm. Later in the day, we went to the Museum of Pop Culture before our reservation at the Chihuly Glass Museum. Since we had a bit of… Continue reading Jinxuan Milk Tea – Rabbit Rabbit Tea
