Speaking of, it’s a three day weekend, so I’m spending it in Sapporo. Boba content for… Continue reading Jasmine Milk Tea (ジャスミンミルクティー) – The Tea

Today I hung out in Hirosaki to get some apples and do some sightseeing! Beforehand, I did some research to see if there was any boba in town, and it turns out there is one shop that claims to be a boba specialty spot (it’s also a chicken bento spot under a different name?). At… Continue reading Brown Sugar Milk Black Tea (こがし黒糖ミルクティ) – Natural Candy
It’s another three day weekend, and this weekend I’m spending it in Aomori! Specifically hanging out in Aomori City and then making a day trip to Hiroshima.

It’s Day 3 of the three day weekend and time to say goodbye to Asahikawa.

This… Continue reading Matcha Tapioca – Komugi no Dorei

This was a bit of a plot twist,… Continue reading Earl Grey Milk Tea (アールグレイミルクティー) – Gong Cha

This is my last boba of my Taiwan trip before heading back to Japan, and was the boba I got yesterday morning at the airport.

These are definitely my top… Continue reading Black Tea Latte (紅茶拿鐵) – Chun Sui Tang
Today’s our last full day in Taiwan! We spent the day just chilling, and hanging out around the Daan and Yongkang area.
