Brown Sugar Boba Tea(20oz)
Brown sugar boba tea, also known as brown sugar milk tea or brown sugar bubble tea, is a sweet and indulgent variation of the classic boba tea. It features chewy tapioca pearls (boba) that are coated or cooked in a caramelized brown sugar syrup. The pearls take on a rich, sweet, and slightly smoky flavor due to the caramelization. To make brown sugar boba tea, the sweetened tapioca pearls are often combined with black tea or milk tea, resulting in a delightful combination of creamy and sweet with a hint of bitterness from the tea. It's a beloved variation of boba tea that has gained popularity for its sweet and satisfying taste. The presentation often includes swirls of the brown sugar syrup on the interior of the glass, giving it an appealing visual effect. If you have a sweet tooth, brown sugar boba tea is a must-try!

I love it here, sure it's a little pricy but the portions are HUGE.
They have gluten free and vegetarian options which is great because (I have celiac) I can enjoy my food without feeling left out by eating a salad while others have a huge meal.

I had the volcano ramen and a strawberry matcha latte. The ramen was perfectly spicy. The pork was tender and flavorful. My favorite part is the marinated egg, so yummy!! The matcha latte was creamy and delicious! We've been here before and will definitely be back!

Hands down one of my favorite restaurants I’ve ever been to. I go here at least once a week. My favorite ramen is the Volcano Ramen they serve here. The service is great, particularly from the young man named Angga
