On Monique's recommendation, we went for some bubble tea at this Taiwanese joint on Dundas West.
Regular taro milk tea with less ice.

I'm not usually a fan of bubble tea, mainly because I'm not a fan of bubbles. Also, it is usually overpriced. I have to admit, though, that the taro in this drink was pretty good. It was the best taro milk tea that I've ever had - not that I've had that many, but still. The taro was real and in soft chunks throughout the drink. I feel like real taro chunks in milk tea is a rare find. I like that you can ask for less/no sugar and less/no ice.
Would I return? Yeah. I can see myself randomly craving that taro. Word on the street is that it's imported from Taiwan. From now until Sunday, there's a promotion to upgrade any Chatime Special Mix drink from regular to large for free.
Total damage: approximately $5.
I agree. The taro milk tea here is much different than other joints in toronto. LOVE that you can actually taste and feel the real taro. I asked one of their employees who confirmed that not only their taro bubble tea but EVERYTHING is importes from taiwan. No wonder theres always a line up on weekends.
ReplyDeletePS The chatime pearl milk tea is also amazing!
And here I thought it was just their taro that was from Taiwan. I will have to try their other menu offerings. Thanks for the info and for commenting!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the QQ milk tea here! You get both pearls AND coconut jelly! Its soooo goood! BTW I like how they call the tapioca by their official name - Pearls. Nice touch!
