Bubble tea @ Tropicana City Mall

If you're feeling parched and you so happen to be in Tropicana City Mall (TCM), head over to this shop for some Bubble Tea (BT) to quench that thirst of yours. It's located right opposite the Carrefour cashier exit.

Whilst my bf was back, this shop just launched and we decided to give the bubble tea a try.

Ever since Pre-U years at Taylor's, I've been a bubble tea junkie. I love bubble tea SO much that even when I was in Australia, I would head over to Easy Way weekly to have my fix! And it costs about AUD4.20 I think.

Since then, I no longer patronise Yippee Cup (another bubble tea shop but in Malaysia) as the quality of the pearls is not even up to standard. Even the milk tea leaves much to be desired. I wonder what happened to the management.

Anyway, outside the shop, they have a small set up offering customers to try a few different drinks ie Red/Green Tea, Red/Green MILK Tea, Honey Tea etc.

For me, drinking red/green tea is "healthier" with less sugar and milk. But it can be a little bitter. For the first trip there, I had the Red Tea with Honey. Nothing much to shout as it was a tad too bitter for me (I am a sweet tooth and looove sweet drinks).

However, the next trip I went, I had the Red Milk Tea with honey and it was alright.

I was at TCM on Sunday and just craved for BT and hence, had the Red Milk Tea with Honey. It was a tad too sweet. Guess the workers were a little too generous with the honey that day.

Sometimes, some bubble tea shops serve pearls that are either hard or tasteless and not sweet! On Sunday, the pearls were sweet and the texture just nice.
