My boyfriend went on a short trip to Tokyo this weekend to see his friend, and came back today! He was getting boba from The Alley and and of course I took him up on his offer to get one too. Last up on the milk tea list I have to try here is their… Continue reading THE ALLEY Assam Milk Tea (THE ALLEY アッサムミルクティー) – The Alley
I’m going home today after a brief overnight stay in Sapporo, and to end my trip on the way home, I’m getting boba as usual! I’m at The Alley today, because I have some coupons to use, and they just had to release a new seasonal drink…I don’t plan on coming back to Sapporo before… Continue reading Xmas Wreath Brulee Milk Tea (Xmasリースのブリュレミルクティー) – The Alley
A few weeks ago I was doing my weekly grocery run, and near the juices and bottled coffee section sitting at the edge was this little guy. And I had to get it. It's a bottled boba drink. Is it going to be bad? Probably. Am I still going to try it? Yes, it's boba.… Continue reading Tapioca Milk Tea (タピオカミルクティー) – Emial
Today I'm picking up some (supposedly) limited merchandise at Honey and Butter (if you know, you know). I've never actually been in the store or stopped by to try their macarons, but other than supposedly they're good, they're known for their super cute designs. Even so, I'm not going to wait in the long line… Continue reading The Alley Assam Milk Tea – The Alley
Today was my meetup with one of my long-time friends who I haven't seen or talked to in forever (and made a boba diet exception for :))! I recently got into contact with her again before my trip, and since she's going back to school sooner than I am, we decided to meet up when… Continue reading Honey Assam Milk Tea – Orobae
A Happy Birthday shoutout to my sister today! It doesn't have a relation to A+ or boba, but today's still a special day nonetheless. A+ was back this past weekend, so huzzah for more pink boba. As usual, I saved my order from yesterday to drink today, so I could have it earlier in the… Continue reading Assam Black Milk Tea – A+ Tea House
Today's a great day for boba, because I (technically) have class until 11:30 tonight because I'm doing a 10-day online study abroad program with a Japanese University, and obviously the session is in Japan time. Luckily, it's not too late on my end, but staring at a computer screen for hours straight does take a… Continue reading Assam Milk Tea (#2) – 7 Leaves Cafe
Alright, you probably know what Milk Tea is (or at least can guess), but entertain my post if you will...I'm no tea expert, so this post is "milk tea" in relation to the world of boba (of which I'm not expert either)! Anyway, the easy answer would be: any milk + any tea. And you're… Continue reading What’s (Black) Milk Tea?
What? Boba two days in a row? I'm not quite sure if this is a bad thing or good thing, but I'm always up for boba on a hot day. Or any day for the matter. Plus, boba right after a workout always sounds good, and I finished my second workout program for the summer… Continue reading Assam Milk Tea – 7 Leaves Cafe
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
