Store or Shop
I might say, I’m going to The Alley today, and you’ll think “that’s highly suspicious and dangerous, you shouldn’t do that”, and normally you’d be right, but that’s not the case when it’s the boba shop! I remembered when they first opened one near me sometime around the pandemic, and I wanted to try it… Continue reading What’s a Deerioca? – The Alley
I made another bus trip to Sapporo this week, and hung out with a couple of new friends for the day! We ended the day with boba, and also because I wanted to go back to Gong Cha to try the Limited Peach milk tea before it ends at the end of August. The peach… Continue reading Peach Jasmine Milk Tea (ぎゅぎゅっとピーチ ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
Today I made a bus trip to Sapporo! I went with my friend the other day and it was a lot of fun, and today I made the trip myself. I explored a bit, stayed a bit in the station, and of course, now to get boba. I was deciding between Gong Cha or The… Continue reading Alishan Oolong Milk Tea (阿里山ありさん ウーロン ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
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
Today's my last day in town before my flight tomorrow (let's pray nothing happens between then)! Getting my boba fix in will probably be quite difficult where I'm going, so I'm getting my last drink at home before I leave...My sister has volunteering today, so the prefect place to get a pick up would be… Continue reading Taro Storm – Tea Maru
This morning my sister and her friend had a meetup in Long Beach and my dad chaperoned them. Conveniently, the original Loose Leaf store was around the corner from where the meet-up was, and my mom asked my dad to bring home a drink. It wasn't too far of a trip, and my dad brought… Continue reading Strawberry Matcha Latte – Loose Leaf Boba Company
I got an email this morning that I had a Grubhub promo code expiring tomorrow for $10 off a $20 subtotal. 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
This morning my mom took me to get a facial, and since I needed to go get some things from South Coast Plaza, we stopped there before heading home. 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 sister was craving the freeze-dried strawberries from Trader Joe's, so to get her out of the house and spend some time with her, we went on a Trader Joe’s run together. Trader Joe's is right next to Omomo, and since we finished our shopping right when they opened (and the line wasn't too long!)… Continue reading Four Seasons Tea – Omomo Tea Shoppe
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
