#6 was pretty good. Lot of variety and not as sweet as I suspected it would be. Can get pretty tight in here between people waiting in line and seating but it was a nice vibe. Good hangout spot.

Design your own drink! If you want more fresh squeezed coconut milk, ask for 1/2 toppings. Be sure to ask for a stamp card and earn a free drink after 12 drink purchases.

I walked in and my jaw dropped. Definitely a different experience. The decor is amazing and the music is a throwback. The regular sized desserts will fill you UP.

They use freshly pressed coconut milk and coconut juice from their own coconuts! The quality and freshness is definitely noticeable in their drinks.

A little bit pricey than normal milk teas, but they have some interesting favors such as longan and pandan jelly. Coconut milk brings out a lighter taste if that's something you're looking for.

This location does not carry all the drinks that other locations have. Sucks! I just walked out. Meanwhile T pumos across the street has a lune out the door!
