| - Came here to pick up some drinks before a "Valentine's Dinner" on well valentines day. Lol Located in a shopping center across from the Wal-Mart on Fort Apache, its a place that is fairly easily accessible with ample parking around. Apparently this place is fairly new and the hours are fairly limited (open at 12 and close at 8)
After seeing all the great reviews and it being a newly opened place, I had to check it out. Not the biggest location but it is fairly open with a decent amount of seating. A lot of customers seem to come here to study. There are some power plugs spread around the store so good for those who you laptops or need a charge.
Staff was friendly and kind of helpful. They didn't answer me much when asking about how their sweetness was. Just told me to order a lower one, if not sweet enough, they can add.
This trip, I had picked up 3 drinks. All at a sweetness of 50% as myself, and my 2 other friends don't particularly like our drinks that sweet, usually.
Dark Knight - heavy roasted oolong milk tea with herbal jelly
Diamond Grape - oolong tea infused with white grape topped with crystal boba
Peach Lucy - peace oolong infused ice tea with peach puree
I, personally, had ordered the Dark Knight. The sound of heavy roasted oolong and herbal jelly sounded really good. I'm fairly picky with my teas and love a strong tea flavor. This was far from strong. Tasted very diluted, not with the milk, but seemed diluted with their "chilling process" with ice. I had heard shakers being used. I've been told there's a limited time you should shake otherwise it gets too diluted, and this is probably why. Out of the 3 drinks, mine tasted like slightly flavored water. Herbal jelly was really mild as well. Very disappointed :(
Out of the 3 I had tasted, I think the diamond grape tasted the best. Nice crisp texture from crystal boba with the flavorful white grape infusion to the still not so strong oolong tea. White/green grape has been a favorite in terms of drink flavor so this tasted pretty nice. 50% was perfect in my opinion.
Peach Lucy was not bad but definitely not the worst of the 3. My friend had requested to add crystal boba so it added the nice crisp texture to the flavorful drink. Not too sure where the peach puree was but maybe they added it to mix?
Prices weren't bad. 1 size only. Apparently according to the guy who helped me stated it costs 50 cents MORE for a smaller size.
Overall, 2 of the 3 drinks weren't bad. Though I feel like it is a bit of false advertisement when they say its a heavy roasted oolong. Oolong is not particularly a light tea either if brewed correctly. It was very diluted and disappointing. Hopefully they'll improve on that aspect or just work on only fruit flavored teas or something.
