Corn Latte / Corn Einspanner
"The recommended sweetness for the corn milk is a bit too sweet in my opinion, so I step it down a level. But the drinks are awesome, the staff is friendly, the store / restroom is clean, and service is quick."
Guava Hojicha Latte
"I ended up going with the Guava Hojicha Latte with boba. It was soooo good. The combination of the roasty hojicha with the sweet tangy guava was surprisingly perfect together."
Strawberry Matcha Latte
"For the first time in my life I had an amazing strawberry matcha latte. The matcha was present and the strawberry flavoring was just right."
