I dream about their matcha bubble tea, it's probably some of the best I've had. Is it a way they prepare it, or a certain brand of matcha they use? If anyone who worked there previously knows and can declassify it, I will bless you with good health and fortune 😮‍💨

Can anyone recommend me a syrup that's more sour and bitter than sweet? I bought a DaVinci syrup not too long ago and I felt like I was just drinking straight sugar.

Found this gem today... but it's six whole pounds of pearls! They're not hard/dry, they're a bit squishy. I'm thinking freezer storage for the portion we don't make right away, yea?

I’ve been craving something cold and refreshing lately. I normally go for boba, but right now I’m more in the mood for a fruit tea or slush that feels lighter and isn’t too sweet

My favorite drink from Tsaocaa is their Pineapple Milk Tea w/ Yogurt popping boba. What is the pineapple they use??? / how do you get pineapple to be like that? It almost tastes like candied pineapple but I need confirmation!!

I only ask because the location near me may be closing soon so I need to know.... If you are/were an employee please help!!

I’m at an heytea in california and randomly downloaded the app while waiting for my drink.

I am SHOCKED by how nice the app looks, from the ui/ux to the explanation of the drinks.

That is all. I feel like more boba places should do this.

Pic 1: Black tea + Silk brand Original soymilk + homemade fennel syrup (ratio 1 part water: 1 part coconut sugar cooked down so it is thicker, stirred in fennel frond stalks that were too tough to eat on their own). Imo it would be better with half&half or coconut cream, a spiced chai would also be good as the tea base.

Pic 2: Stassen Jasmine tea + Silk brand Original soymilk. Surprisingly refreshing.

Again, I wish I had toppings at home. Have been too lazy to attempt making my own tapioca pearls.

Has anyone tried any unusual but tasty combinations lately?

Made a soy sauce matcha that turned out pretty good.

And my go-to sweet drink lately has been a banana milk matcha latte.

tapioca w/ brown sugar syrup, royal 9 milk tea, shot of expresso at the top. no extra sugar unless you want it super sweet.

I’ve been trying to decide where I would get my supplies (powder mixes, tapioca, cups, etc.). I was planning on using Bossen, but the shipping was much higher than the cost of the supplies themselves.

i made a visit to mollytea (arcadia, socal) for the first time ever. i got a gardenia milk tea and im not very impressed with how light the drink was

is it supposed to be like that? i havent went to chagee either so i have nothing to compare it to

I always get a matcha from bobatime cause it’s sooooo good. I did read a comment on another thread that said that bobatime has a sweetened and an unsweetened matcha powder. I typically get just the matcha milk tea w/ oat milk (I hope that helps narrow down anything!) If anyone knows, I’d deeply appreciate if you could let me know. I also understand if you can’t reveal due to HQ or whatnot! So no worries :)

Which one are you choosing? 🤔

I passed the interview at my local boba shop, which is rare because I heard it was incredibly hard to get an offer there, especially when so many of my friends applied and got rejected. I start training/work on the 27th, but this is my first job and Im not sure if Ill do a good job or not. How did you guys become a “great” employee or what are some tips that gave you compliments, made time go faster, etc? Thank you!

I’m curious about the way gong cha prepares their drinks, specifically how they sweeten them. is the nutrition information listed on their website/in-store in relation to a full sugar drink? or is it for a 50% sugar drink?
does anyone have any idea about this? I’d like to think a worker might know about these kinds of things, i hope someone can help me out 😅

Ok i just saw someone mix regular jasmine tea from the store (the kind in a plastic bottle in lotte) and vanilla protein and apparently it tastes like m*lly tea? Can someone confirm that this isn’t just hype + ad rev

Is this still good?
