Yesterday I came back from Tokyo! My dad and I met up with my cousin again for lunch, and my cousin's restaurant pick just happened to be across the street from Truedan. A perfect post-lunch pre-flight drink! One last boba while I'm in Tokyo this trip. This indeed was yesterday's drink, so apologies for the… Continue reading Assam Black Milk Tea (紅茶ミルクティー（アッサム)) – Truedan
Happy New Year! We actually weren’t going to get a drink today, but as a celebratory dinner today we ordered Din Tai Fung. When ordering DTF in America, there’s boba to be ordered. I swear I thought they used to have other milk tea options, but I guess it’s just the milk tea and honey… Continue reading Honey Milk Tea – Din Tai Fung
Todays Day 2 of my three day weekend! I’m in Sapporo for the morning, and heading over to Jozankei for the first time in the afternoon. As of 10/15, The Alley released a few new items for the winter season, so I got to try them out! First up is this apple and assam fruit… Continue reading Apple and Assam Fruit Tea (りんごとアッサムのフルーツティー) – The Alley
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
Today I’m heading home from Sapporo, making a stop in Otaru beforehand. On the way to Otaru, I wanted to grab boba in Sapporo since we were leaving, and my choice of the day was The Alley, since there’s some new seasonals. Seems like they’re changing up their app in March, as no more points… Continue reading Chocolate Tea (ショコラティー) – The Alley
It's my last day in America...as a send-off of sorts, my family decided to get Din Tai Fung for dinner (it was either going to be yesterday or today)! We love everything on their menu, but my mom is also particularly excited about their milk tea. If I'm going to be stuck on a plane… Continue reading Milk Tea – Din Tai Fung
I didn't have a drink today, but I did go do some shopping with my dad, and one of our stops was Trader Joe's. It's next to the Omomo, but today the line (as usual) was pretty long, and instead, I wanted to check out the new Wanderlust Creamery that opened up somewhat recently. It's… Continue reading Thai Tea with Boba Ice Cream – Wanderlust Creamery
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
