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 going home today after spending the weekend in Sapporo! I’m planning on going home with my friend from Otaru, so I’m just taking the bus to Otaru today. Nevertheless, I will get a boba, and for the bus ride home. The Alley also just released their holiday drinks this year, and though I do… Continue reading Berry Christmas Smoothie (ベリークリスマススムージー) – The Alley
I’m in Sapporo this weekend to see a concert! As my afternoon snack, I went to Gong Cha for boba. As of a few days ago, they rereleased the gingerbread man bottle series! I didn’t get one last year, and wanted to get it as soon as possible this time around. Like the Heartful bottle,… Continue reading Gingerbread Man Strawberry Alishan Oolong Milk Tea (ジンジャーブレッドマン ストロベリー阿里山ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
I’m in Sapporo today to go get hot pot with my friend for her first hot pot experience! After hot pot, we went to this year’s German Christmas Market, and got some sweet treats.

Yesterday was my birthday! This was actually my drink from yesterday, but I was busy all day that I didn't have time to write my post, so apologies for the delay.

Of course, I had to get boba on my birthday.… Continue reading Brown Sugar TieGuanYin Milk Tea (黒糖鉄観音ミルクティー) – The Alley

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 Matcha w/ Brown Sugar 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
Happy Sports Day! Today I’m getting some brunch in Sapporo, before heading to Otaru to see a movie (it was very good). I’m getting boba before I leave Sapporo though, and I’m going for Gong Cha because there’s a new seasonal for spooky season. This seasonal looks pretty interesting. The series is called Apple &… Continue reading Apple & Blood Orange Milk Tea (アップル＆ブラッドオレンジミルクティー) – 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
