Store or Shop
Today I took my new neighbor on a central Sapporo day tour! We walked around, saw all the Sapporo basics around the station area, and I ended the trip with boba for the bus ride home. We were already at the bus stop, and Gong Cha was the closest. The new “seasonal” option doesn’t come… Continue reading Crunchy Matcha Milk Tea (サクサク抹茶 ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
I’m heading home from my brief short vacation to Furano today! I left early in the morning to make a stop in Sapporo for lunch, pick up boba, and then go home. Today, I’m actually getting boba from Tsutsumiya, a small crepe shop in the Daimaru department store Kiyokocho. I actually stumbled upon the fact… Continue reading Roasted Iron Kannon Tapioka Milk Tea (焙煎鉄観音タピオカミルクティー) – Tsutsumiya
It’s a long weekend, so I’m making a brief weekend trip to Furano! I have to make a stop in Sapporo first to change busses, and there’s just enough time to me to grab boba at Gong Cha before hopping on the bus to Furano. I believe this is the yearly peach seasonal, but I… Continue reading Pichi Pichi Peach Milk Tea (ピチピチピーチ ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
Today I went to Sapporo to hang out with my friend, and then get afternoon tea with her and her friend! It was loads of fun, and I’m really glad I made a new friend today!

I’m going home after spending a weekend in Sapporo with some friends! Today we went to the handmade village, saw a Ghibli exhibition, and then parted ways as everyone else had a bit of a time crunch going home. I got lunch, some dessert, and then stopped by Gong Cha on the way home. I… Continue reading Black Milk Tea (ブラック ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
I’m back in Hokkaido (and Japan!) after a brief trip in the States (but this blog has been lively with that content). Of course, on the way home, I have to grab some boba for the road, and I’m back at Gong Cha to get their seasonal tea as a milk tea. As I said… Continue reading Chardonnay Grape Milk Tea (シャルドネグレープミルクティー) – Gong Cha
Today’s my last day in the States! It’s been a really quick trip, but any longer and I would have gone full vacation mode…my flight is later tonight (tomorrow “morning”), so on my last day, I met up with friend to chat and catch up! Honestly looking at the menu, I hoped there’d be something… Continue reading Jasmine Milk Tea #2 – Sunright Tea Studio
The other day I got an email from Coffee Bean, and I thought it was a normal periodic advertisement email, so I swiped to delete it. It was as it was being deleted that I saw BOBA written in the subject line, immediately undeleted it, and read the email. Turns out, Coffee Bean is hopping… Continue reading Ceylon Milk Tea with Brown Sugar Boba – Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf
Today’s my second day back in town! Today was a rest day for me, but also running some in-town errands, as well as getting a manicure and pedicure with my sister (hence the nails in the picture)! I wasn’t sure what to order and decided to leave it up to me at the ordering tablet.… Continue reading Cold Lavender Honey Matcha Latte – Junbi
I’m back in the USA! My first stop after getting picked up from the airport is boba, although 7 Leaves was suggested by my mom, ha! Then, off to surprise my sister with a drink delivery! 7 Leaves updated their app with some secret menu options, though not with some of their more famous options… Continue reading Green Thai Tea #2 – 7 Leaves Cafe
