    Almond black tea is Cha's best seller, but try hot honey green milk tea for a change. It is very soothing. You can thank me later.

    Their honey green milk tea is so good! If you love sweets then this is perfect for you. Definitely get with boba -it's just the right amount of chewiness :)

    If you order the mango green tea, no need to add additional sweeteners. Already sweet as is!

    Today, I ordered the 8 herbal tea and asked for it to be "unsweetened". They said they didn't add any honey; the tea comes with raw sugar in it. I paid $4.40 for hot sugar water. FML.

    If you don't want the salad that comes with an entree, you can ask for more rice or corn instead.
