| - My need for a Honeydew Green Tea took me to this place that is right next to the No 1 Boba place inside the Mall. This place is located next to Mother's KBBQ and 99 Ranch Market off of Spring Mountain Rd so if you want boba and are near Rio, this is the spot.
Walking in, the ambience is very casual and caters to the FOB audience or anyone interested in K-pop. It's pretty dark inside, but I think it was because it was the daytime and they turn on the lights at night to make it brighter. (Am I wrong?) I think I came at the right time, because the last time I came down to this area, there was a huge wave of people waiting to order and it seems to get pretty loud, so bring headphones if you're the type to study at a tea place.
The prices are reasonable, my large Honeydew Green Tea came out to $3.41. Now, it took them like a few seconds to ready my drink and when I saw it, I realized that it was lacking the usual bright green color that I normally see when I order it back home in California. It looked more brown and appeared like a Honey Green Tea instead. Looking back at my receipt, I knew I ordered Honeydew, but I decided to drink it instead.
Yep, definitely Honeydew Green Tea, but being confused with the color, I decided to ask my friend who works at the Lollicup back at home about the color. He told me it might be because Volcano uses syrup opposed to powder.
As for the flavor? It's not overly sweet and still provides the taste of a Honeydew drink. The size is about the same as any large drink over at a typical boba place and the service was not extraordinary but to the point.
Hopefully my future ventures won't disappoint.
