Our family enjoys bubble tea, but we live in the boonies. Therefore, we try to satisfy our cravings the six or so times a year that we find ourselves in the vicinity of a bubble tea shop. Since our go-to place in Eagan was closed yesterday, we instead checked out Pink Tea in Bloomington.
For starters, Pink Tea's decor is pure eye candy: It's vibrant, whimsical, and inviting. Looking at it kept us entertained while we waited for our order.
Hubby and I both ordered jasmine milk tea with boba. Our daughter ordered mango milk tea with boba and, at my suggestion, an ice cream waffle cone. While the jasmine milk tea wasn't as delicious and fragrant as our go-to joint, the ice cream waffle cone more than made up for it! The flavor and texture of the waffle is the best we've experienced. It had the perfect amount of malt and sweetness. It's large, too, so plan to order on an empty stomach or share with one or two people.
We'll definitely go back the next time we're in...
Read moreMy boyfriend and I have gone here almost every week for months. We love it here! We constantly talk about how they have the best boba pearls we've had. The pearls are sweet and the texture is perfect. I've gotten to try quite a few of the teas on their menu and have loved each one. They have a lot of really good different options to choose from. My personal favorites are the matcha strawberry and the brown sugar. My boyfriend's favorite is the taro. We also recently tried a couple creme brulee options and loved it on the brown sugar.
The store itself is decorated super cute and is a great place to take pictures in. They even have really cute Christmas decorations out right now. And to tie everything together, the staff is very nice. It's always a pleasure coming here and I'm already excited to stop...
Read moreThis is my first time trying Pink Tea. We got the jasmine milk tea, strawberry smoothie, and Vietnamese coffee. The strawberry smoothie was good per my daughter, tastes just like the other tea places. My husband had the coffee but since he ordered plain so It tasted good to him. I had the jasmine milk tea. Nice floral note with the perfect sweetness ( I ordered half sugar). The taste overall is good but watery/thin. The most disappointing part was the tapioca pearl. The texture of the pearls were not consistent. Some of it the outer part was almost “melting” but the interior was still hard. Some was just overall too soft. It does not have the nice chewy texture to it. Overall, I think the drinks were ok. I would try it again if I’m in the area but would not drive out there just...
