On August 21, I went out to go get boba at Sunright with my sister! We wanted a change of pace from what we were getting recently, and I brought up Sunright, which I haven't had in a while. I have mostly exhausted Sunright's normal milk tea menu at this point, so I looked to… Continue reading Strawberry Jasmine Tea – Sunright Tea Studio
On August 20th, I went to Costco with my dad in the morning, and then out with my sister to get boba at Wushiland in the afternoon!

One of Wushiland's more interesting choices… Continue reading Ice Cream Green Tea – Wushiland Boba
On August 19th, I took my sister out on a drive to get boba! This time, our shop of choice was Macu (suggested by our mom!).

On August 17, I met up with college friends I haven't seen in three years! We decided to meet up at Jam Jam to get boba. My friends haven't been, and you can't go wrong with Jam Jam.

August 12th was my first full day back home! I didn't really do too much, but my sister wanted a drink, so we headed out to Wushiland which was close by.

On August 9th, I went out to Harajuku to do some shopping, as my time in Japan was slowly coming to a close...There's quite a few boba options in Harajuku (as expected of a bustling area for shopping and young people), including the Japanese Xing Fu Tang, which I've been before. This time, I decided… Continue reading White Peach Green Tea (白桃ジャスミンティー) – Koi The
