Alright, ready for some mediocre boba? Today my friend invited me out for some mediocre boba. Yes, she absolutely did not recommend it, describing it as worse than the boba you get from pho places (if you know what I mean). My town does not officially have any boba shops, but has a couple that… Continue reading Brown Sugar Matcha Tapioca (黒糖抹茶タピオカ)
I come to Japan and move in to the rural countryside so you might think I’m dead for a while…well I have some content that still needs to be written and published, and also, you just gotta do what you gotta do to adapt the blog you know? Now boba might be hard to come… Continue reading Royal Milk Tea (ローヤルミルクティー) – 紅茶花伝
Today’s my first full day in Japan! I landed last night, but my group of friends were too tired yesterday to go to anything, so I’m going out for the first time today. There was a group this morning that went to go get boba, but they went real early since the store opens at… Continue reading “Bonsai” Garden Milk Tea – The Alley Lujiaoxiang
This morning my sister and her friend had a meetup in Long Beach and my dad chaperoned them.

At first I offered it to my boyfriend, but he didn't want it, so I was thinking...this promo is a pretty good deal. Ever since I saw Loose Leaf's Santa Ana location as a… Continue reading Ali Shan Oolong – Loose Leaf Boba Company

Since South Coast is in Costa Mesa, I figured it’d be a good chance to go to Boba Guys right down the street. My mom agreed,… Continue reading Tie Guan Yin Oolong – Boba Guys
My mom had a doctor’s appointment today, and I tagged along to hang out and go look at some things in the area (which include the Tiger Sugar, and we’re both definitely getting a drink!). I’m onto the next latte, and I’ve been meaning to try their golden oolong for a while. And here we… Continue reading Golden Oolong Tea Latte Cream Mousse – Tiger Sugar
My dad went down to San Diego for work yesterday, and had dinner at UTC. He asked my mom if she wanted drinks, she obviously said yes, and I also obviously wanted one too. Her go-to from UTC is Wushiland, so that's what we got. Since he would get back home late, we both saved… Continue reading Jasmine Green Milk Tea (#4) – Wushiland Boba
Today’s my boyfriend’s last full day with at my place. We went to go get hot pot for dinner with a couple of our friends, and then after, obviously had to get boba. We looked for what’s nearby or around our area, and ended up deciding on Sharetea. I was looking at the menu, and… Continue reading Honey Milk Tea (Oolong) – Sharetea
Today I went on a sushi date with my boyfriend, then went to buy a few snacks and drinks for a party we’re going to tonight, and then stopped by Tea Maru to get boba.
