Boba pearls
"A lot of places are a little skimpy on the tapioca and this one gives you lots of large, well cooked beads. I hate when you bite into them and they're undercooked and this place is always perfect!!"
Thai iced tea
"Best tea I've ever had! Baristas have amazing attention to detail and it shows in the taste!"
Matcha Rose Tea
"Raretea. The name drew me in. I ordered the Matcha Rose Tea and asked for it to be made with oatmilk. It was Deliciously Different! Two layers of green matcha tea and pink rose tea with rose petals at the bottom. Not only was the drink deliciously different, it was Beautiful!"
