Today I went to Sapporo to do some last minute shopping (and eating, ha!). The next time I go out is probably when I leave to go home for the holidays. As I have about two weeks before I go, I really thought about the boba I’d get today, with a dilemma. Last time I… Continue reading Amaou Strawberry Torte Chocolat Tea (あまおうトルテショコラティー) – Gong Cha
Here's the second of the two Gong Cha 7/11 bottled drink collaboration! The second of the two bottles is a fruity tea, as opposed to the other milk tea. This one is made with sweet, juicy yellow peach, and Alishan Oolong Tea from Taiwan. The amount of fruit juice in here is 1%. The drink… Continue reading Alishan Ooolong Peach Tea-ade (阿里山烏龍ピーチティーエード) – Gong Cha
I’m in Sapporo this weekend to see a concert! As my afternoon snack, I went to Gong Cha for boba. As of a few days ago, they rereleased the gingerbread man bottle series! I didn’t get one last year, and wanted to get it as soon as possible this time around. Like the Heartful bottle,… Continue reading Gingerbread Man Strawberry Alishan Oolong Milk Tea (ジンジャーブレッドマン ストロベリー阿里山ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
I’m in Sapporo today to go get hot pot with my friend for her first hot pot experience! After hot pot, we went to this year’s German Christmas Market, and got some sweet treats. Of course, that included boba for the way home. As of 11/18, Gong Cha has come out with a festive holiday… Continue reading Amaou Strawberry Noel Milk Tea (あまおうノエルミルクティー) – Gong Cha
As of July 2, 7/11 Japan has released a limited bottled tea collaboration with Gong Cha! Although they're just bottled teas with no boba (honestly, thank goodness because that probably wouldn't end up well), they're both Gong Cha tea products. I thought they tengentially fit the blog. There's two drinks in this collaboration, and first… Continue reading Brown Sugar Oolong Milk Tea (黒糖烏龍ミルクティー) – Gong Cha
Happy Sports Day! Today I’m getting some brunch in Sapporo, before heading to Otaru to see a movie (it was very good). I’m getting boba before I leave Sapporo though, and I’m going for Gong Cha because there’s a new seasonal for spooky season. This seasonal looks pretty interesting. 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
I’m back in Hokkaido after spending the long weekend in Aomori! My plan today was take a final look at this years Autumn Festival, and take the newest The Alley seasonal on the bus ride home on the bus, when I went to go check if they had it, just my luck they had sold… Continue reading Kyoho Grape Oolong Milk Tea (巨峰ウーロンミルクティー) – Gong Cha
Today’s a casual Saturday Sapporo trip, running around doing some shopping and eating seasonal foods. I was planing on ending my day with boba from The Tea, but it seems as of August 22, they closed this location and are moving to Cocono, opening on September 12. This was a bit of a plot twist,… Continue reading Earl Grey Milk Tea (アールグレイミルクティー) – Gong Cha
I did not expect to be in Sapporo this soon after my Taiwan trip, but one of my friends will be leaving Japan soon, and I likely won’t see her for a while. Today we had a casual hangout, and after saying our goodbyes, I got boba for the bus ride home. After my drink… Continue reading Blue Hawaii Milk Tea (ブルーハワイミルクティー) – Gong Cha
Pardon, but this was yesterday’s drink number 1 (yes, there’s another). Yesterday as a busy travel day, as I headed to Taiwan for the second time this year! On the way to get my early lunch, I stopped by Gong Cha for boba, because I thought I’d get into Taipei a bit late, and just… Continue reading Pear and Berry Milk Tea (洋梨ベリーミルクティー) – Gong Cha
