Junbi relaatively new shop to the scene offering boba, but I think they've been in LA doing matcha for a bit now. It's a cafe that specializes in matcha, but they also have an array of milk teas, fruit teas, coffees, smoothies, and soft serve and onigiri. Their menu is super cool! I've only tried… Continue reading Matcha and Onigiri – Junbi
Today was my dental deep cleaning part 2! After my appointment was over, I walked over to a nearby Target, did some shopping while waiting to get picked up (no car problems), and killed some time. On the way home, we passed Junbi, so perfect for boba of the day. Junbi is doing a banana… Continue reading Cold Mango Matcha Latte – Junbi
This morning my sister went out to a lunch, and she came back offering 7 Leaves. Obviously I’m saying yes, so thanks to her for the drink opportunity. Browsing the secret menu and then going back to the main tea menu, I realized 7 Leaves put a new matcha drink on their normal menu: a… Continue reading Matcha Latte – 7 Leaves Cafe
Yesterday we made a pit stop in Monterey on our way down from San Francisco. Originally we wanted to go see the aquarium, but we left too late that by the time we would arrive the expensive tickets wouldn’t be worth it. I found a boba place, and we decided to check it out. The… Continue reading Lavender Milk Tea – Bobalicious & Bites
Yesterday I spent the day in San Francisco to hang out with my boyfriend for our 5th anniversary together! Thanks to my dad for driving! We got pho for lunch, and then headed down the street for boba. I think TJ has changed a little since I was last here. There’s a kiosk now! TJ… Continue reading Premium Thai Iced Tea – TJ Cups
My family is taking a brief Bay Rea trip! Mostly so I can go see my boyfriend over winter break while I’m in America, so thanks to the family for taking me! We stopped by a Chinese restaurant in San Carlos last night, and incidentally, the Boba Guys we found on Google happened to be… Continue reading Apple Fresca – Boba Guys
Yesterday I went out with friends I haven’t seen for 6 years (!) to get dinner together! It was really great getting to catch up and realize how much, and how little, has changed. After dinner we had to get boba, and we headed to Omomo which was nearby. Surprisingly, the line wasn’t too bad!… Continue reading Taro Paste with Fresh Milk – Omomo Tea Shoppe
Tonight my family went to go eat Japanese food at the big Mitsuwa Market in Costa Mesa. It’s been a while since I last went, and it’s really gotten a huge makeover. This included the new boba spot, Umacha! It seems like all of their normal milk teas are made from a dairy-free soy powder.… Continue reading Strawberry Matcha Latte – Umacha
Yesterday we went to dinner at a Chinese cafe near Bopomofo’s Artesia location. Dinner was yummy, and since we came all the way, I had to get a drink. I was debating between a couple things on the menu, but ended up with the honey roasted oolong milk tea. The honey with the oolong sounded… Continue reading Honey Roasted Oolong Milk Tea – Bopomofo Cafe
Yesterday my parents went to pick up a delivery meal for dinner. They were in the 7 Leaves area, so we got drinks to go with our dinner! I love 7 Leaves’ stuff and tried a lot of the menu already. I decided to go for something new on their secret menu, and went with… Continue reading Tea Rex – 7 Leaves Cafe
