Strawberry Matcha Latte
"I ordered and really enjoyed their signature drink Strawberry Matcha Latte. It’s a layered drink that consists of Organic premium-grade matcha, your choice of milk and their housemade strawberry puree. I added their boba to my drink. It is always delicious."
Korean Banana Milk with Boba
"As an avid fan of banana milk, I knew I had to try the Boba version of Korean Banana milk. After trying it three times across 3 different locations, I am happy to report it is now my favorite thing on the menu! The drink is made with a homemade banana jam combined with oat milk, which makes the drink both dairy and caffeine free."
Black Sugar Hojicha with Boba
"I got the Black Sugar Hojicha with boba and my husband got the Caramel Milk Tea with boba. The Black Sugar Hojicha was delicious though. The flavor was great. The biggest thing that stands out to me is their boba. It tastes better than any other boba I've had."
