Russian has moved to Tuesday morning this week, because apparently the weather has decided to grace us with 100 Degrees on Wednesday. To avoid that, we moved to today, which would be slightly cooler, and in the morning, because my friend has classes later, and it'd be even cooler! We went over Russian idioms today,… Continue reading Genmaicha – Redstraw Tea Bar
Here's to another post-workout boba! I've been working out in the morning on the weekends recently, but today it was in the afternoon because my mom's friend (safely) came over to do her hair this morning. Today I online ordered as usual, and I noticed that Sunright has Thai Tea in their new drinks section… Continue reading Oolong Milk Tea – Sunright Tea Studio
Today Russian Wednesdays are back at Redstraw! We read about Russian saunas today, banyas, amidst this very hot weather. And very hot weather is the best occasion for a drink! Today I went for Redstraw's Osmanthus Oolong, which I noticed on their menu after I found out about Omomo's. For some reason, because of Omomo's… Continue reading Osmanthus Oolong – Redstraw Tea Bar
Today my dad decided to get me some post-workout boba from 7 Leaves. I was suspicious, and I am 99.9% sure it's because he wants me to make him overnight oats. Don't worry Dad, I will (sooner or later). 😉 For anyone that actually cares, I'm just about almost finished with my "Reviewing the drinks… Continue reading Japanese Matcha Tea (#2) – 7 Leaves Cafe
This weekend reached the 100s for some reason, so it's a perfect time for boba! Today I'm finally trying my sister's favorite "bloody" drink, the Strawberry Hibiscus Tea from 7 Leaves. I'm not sure when she started calling it by that name, but it's probably a combination of the looks the drink (when no ice… Continue reading Strawberry Hibiscus Tea – 7 Leaves Cafe
Oh my God, today's the last day of August! I think we were going to get a drink yesterday because my sister was craving her "bloody drink", but then it ended up getting late in the afternoon so we put it off for today... And here we are! I feel like I say this every… Continue reading Taro Milk Tea – 7 Leaves Cafe
It's Russian Redstraw Wednesday! Well, Wednesday doesn't start with an R, but none of the days of the week do... Today we went over daily vocabulary, including meals, clothing, and routine verbs. I was telling my friend how I finally unlocked "girlfriend" on Duolingo after learning "boyfriend" a few lessons ago, and a lady (safely)… Continue reading Grapefruit Punch – Redstraw Tea Bar
Sometime last week I signed up on the Tastea rewards app because I saw a code for a free drink online, and I thought I could save the coupon for a time when I want to try Tastea in the future. Little did I know at the time that the coupon would have an expiration… Continue reading Winter Melon Green Milk Tea – Tastea
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
My dad's favorite boba place, Loose Leaf Boba Company, recently opened up a location close to where I live! Now instead of driving to Long Beach (which isn't that bad I guess, but still quite some time) there's a location in Santa Ana. Well, they're still in their soft opening stage right now, which began… Continue reading Jasmine Green Milk Tea – Loose Leaf Boba Company
