Black milk tea and boba milk tea are different menu items. Normally, the regular milk tea is black tea. The boba milk tea here is definitely different than the standard milk tea I've had elsewhere, and I like it. It has good tea flavor plus something else. I don't know if it's the tea or the sweetener (I've been to places that use black sugar or honey instead of white sugar), and it's not quite herbal like jasmine either. The boba was nice and chewy. $3.75 gets you a pretty big cup with pearls included, which I think is one of the best prices I've ever seen across the country!
