I very much love 7 Leaves, but this is more of a recent phenomenon. 7 Leaves has been relatively around for a while in my area, but for whatever reason I didn't get drinks there. One reason was probably because it had a lot of hype (and I usually stay away from the places everyone… Continue reading Taste the Leaf – 7 Leaves Cafe
After trying Oolong from 7 Leaves, I swear I'm not on an Oolong kick. Sometimes when I look at the Omomo menu I feel like I want everything yet nothing at the same time...weird feeling for a boba place. There's a whole bunch of drinks I want to try, from the milk teas to the… Continue reading Oolong Milk Tea – Omomo Tea Shoppe
Happy Fourth of July! Happy (supposed) Birthday America! Am I a proper patriotic citizen now? We let my sister "choose" the place today, but since she's not as familiar with the names of the stores, we asked her what drink she wanted, since she basically has a go-to drink per place. She requested the drink… Continue reading Oolong Milk Tea- 7 Leaves Cafe
Today I met up with some friends, because socializing in times of safely social distancing is important and digital meetups can't really replace real life socializing you know? We're studying Russian over the summer, and practicing the language in real life also helps a lot more than studying digitally. There's just something about it. Today… Continue reading Mango Mojito – Redstraw Tea Bar
Ok, so I don't know if there's some actual science to shaking specifically 17 times, but hey, Sunright Tea Studio says to do it and I've been shaking a lot, so I hope it actually does something. I actually haven't been having that much Sunright, but I'm a big fan of their drinks for the… Continue reading Shake 17 Times – Sunright Tea Studio
Happy Chinese Dragon Boat Festival! Most (if not all I think?) Chinese holidays, or festivals or celebrations or whatever synonym you want to use, have a certain food associated with them that you eat on that day. There's usually a purpose or meaning to them too, but I'm a bad ABC and forgotten most of… Continue reading Matcha Soy Tea- 7 Leaves Cafe
Omomo opened their newest location this past weekend and they're currently on a soft opening, so hopefully with two locations in Irvine the line will die down at the other one! In any case, my dad went out today, and thought about stopping by Omomo, and I am always down for a drink, so of… Continue reading Camo Thai – Omomo Tea Shoppe
My parents had plans to go to Cream Pan (a local Japanese bakery that rocks), so I asked them to stop by HNTea for a drink. I haven't had HNTea for a while, and I think I've been low-key missing their drinks. I would probably go more often, but the parking there is horrendous and… Continue reading Mountain Rock Tea Latte – HNTea
As is traditional with summer, come all the doctor appointments. Yesterday I went to the dentist, and I cursed past me for making a 9am appointment. Why, you may ask. Because the earliest any regular boba place opens is at 11am! Of course, there always lies an exception: 7 Leaves opens at 7am. As much… Continue reading Oiio Milk Tea – Oiio Cafe Orange
Ok, so in the About page I mentioned boba is a hip young people thing. Omomo Tea Shoppe is very much the epitome of the hip young people thing (at least for me at the moment) and that's genuinely not a bad thing. It's definitely generating a following as seen by the line, so it's… Continue reading Oh My the Line – Omomo Tea Shoppe
