Today my family and I went to Miyajima to see the famous torii gates in the middle of the ocean. We finished up our plans early, and got dinner in the main city. Of course, since we were nearby boba, we went back since we liked our drinks yesterday! I wanted to get their Jasmine… Continue reading Tea18 Milk Tea (Tea18ミルクティー) – Tea 18
Today my sister and I went to go see Wicked in theaters! Tuesdays are discounted at AMC, so we went to see an afternoon showing. The movie was really good! After the movie, we went to get boba next door at Cha for Tea. I was looking at the online menu beforehand, and was deciding… Continue reading Honey Black Milk Tea – Cha for Tea
This morning I had a dentist appointment, and as we passed the kind-of new HeyTea (which replaced the local Yi Fang, RiP), I noticed it didn’t have the usual line it always has. Hoping it wouldn’t be as bad after my appointment, we came back, and though they were people, I had time to wait.… Continue reading Bobo Milk Tea – HeyTea

The series is called Apple &… Continue reading Apple & Blood Orange Milk Tea (アップル＆ブラッドオレンジミルクティー) – Gong Cha

At… Continue reading Brown Sugar Milk Black Tea (こがし黒糖ミルクティ) – Natural Candy
This is my last boba of my Taiwan trip before heading back to Japan, and was the boba I got yesterday morning at the airport.

These are definitely my top… Continue reading Black Tea Latte (紅茶拿鐵) – Chun Sui Tang
This is also a yesterday’s yesterday drink, and also, that night’s drink.

Seems like most… Continue reading Boba Milk Tea (珍珠奶茶) – Come Buy Tea
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
