On December 20th, my sister and I decided to go to TPTea for boba! I kept thinking about what I've had from there before and my impressions, and upon confirming with my blog entries, I realized I had only been to TPTea once! It must be because my parents went a bunch and sent me… Continue reading Velvet Osmanthus Fresh Milk Tea – TPTea
On December 18th, my sister and I went to Sunright to get boba! We were mentally (and physically on my blog) going through boba shops to go back to, and since Sunright is pretty high up on my personal list and we haven't been back in a while, to go~ At this point, I've tried… Continue reading Tie Guan Yin Milk Tea – Sunright Tea Studio
On December 16th, my sister and I went to go get boba (this will be a reoccurring theme over winter break). At this point, my dad had kind of established a soft "drink every other day is acceptable" rule, so my sister was pretty on it when asking me to go out with her. Place… Continue reading Four Seasons Tea Macchiato – Wushiland Boba
On December 14th, I was just chilling at home, and my sister wanted a drink. We decided to go to 7 Leaves (a first time in a while for me!) because I had birthday points that were expiring, plus they were running a campaign for their seasonal peppermint coffee drink, perfect for my dad. They… Continue reading Jasmine Milk Tea (#9) – 7 Leaves Cafe
On December 13th, I arrived back home, starting my winter break from grad school! Actually, the first thing that I did after leaving the airport was go to Bako...at my family's suggestion. I'm not saying no to a drink, and time to get my fill of boba before going back up to Monterey. I don't… Continue reading Hojicha Latte – Bako Tea House
On November 27th, my sister suggested getting boba, and the first suggestion was Bako. However, their online ordering system wasn't working...and we realized they were probably closed for Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving! I scrolled through my places to-try list, and I suggested the relatively newly opened 3Cat. Reviews seemed generally positive, and we could order online… Continue reading Longjing Milk Tea – 3Cat
On November 26th, it was my first full day at home in a couple months! My school was off for Thanksgiving break, and I'm spending a few days at home with family and friends. My sister wanted to get boba, and I had a boba checklist to get through coming back home, ha! First stop,… Continue reading Jin Xuan Oolong Milk Tea – Bopomofo Cafe
On October 13th, my sister came to visit me! My school had a mini break from classes, and coincidentally, my sister was also on break from school, and her and her friends were spending it in San Jose. They came down for a day to hang out, and it was very sweet of her friend… Continue reading Osmanthus Oolong Tea – Teaspoon
On October 1st, I hung out with a college friend I haven't seen in 3 years! She's from San Jose, and since I'm now in Northern California, I'm a lot physically closer to her (but I suppose anywhere beats the distance with Japan). I don't have an easy way of getting to her, but she's… Continue reading Green Thai Tea #3 – 7 Leaves Cafe
On September 27th, I went to a local cafe to study with friends! Plumes seems to be a default place for students around here to study, with table space, decently priced food and drink offerings, and chill atmosphere. They also offer a student discount on drinks! I've been hesitant to try the boba around the… Continue reading Thai Boba Milk Tea – Plumes Coffee & Tea
