My friend and I went to Mini Monster which is a boba and tea place on the upper floor that is known for their Lightbulb shaped bottles with cotton candy wrapped around the top with the occasional fruity pebbles. I ordered a Jasmine Milk Tea ($4.35) in a 32 oz Mason Jar (+$2.15) that comes with two choices of lids. You could choose from a lid with a straw hole that had bear ears on it or a standard twist on/off lid (what I chose even though the other one was really cute). My friend ordered the Sunset Strawberry Lemonade ($4.25) with the 27oz Light Bulb Bottle (+$2.70) which came with one type of lid. I really enjoyed both because they were really refreshing and they were surprisingly inexpensive. You are also encouraged to come back with your bottle to get a refill for the price of the tea, which I like a lot considering it's sustainable! They offer a cute Camera Lense Bottle (liquid capacity unknown) for $7 on top of your chosen drink,which I don't think is too bad because it costs more elsewhere, and also a regular plastic cup that's 24 oz at no extra cost. There are other locations for this place as well and I recommend it for sure if the prices are around the same at other...
Read moreDrink ordered: Pumpkin Thai Iced Tea Boba with Oat Milk
Taste: This Pumpkin Thai Iced Tea was a delicious and refreshing seasonal boba drink. The pumpkin flavor was subtle and not too overpowering, and the Thai tea flavor was rich and creamy. The oat milk added a nice creaminess to the drink without being too heavy. The bobas were perfectly cooked and had a nice chewy texture.
Price: The Pumpkin Thai Tea Boba is $6.50 without tip and taxes.
Presentation: The Pumpkin Thai Iced Tea Boba is served in a clear plastic cup with a lid and straw. The drink is layered, with the Pumpkin Thai tea on the bottom and the oat milk on top. The bobas are mixed in throughout the drink.
Staff: The staff at Mini Monster is friendly and knowledgeable. They are always happy to help you make a decision about what to order, and they are always happy to answer any questions you have about the drinks.
Overall, I highly recommend the Pumpkin Thai Tea with oat milk at Mini Monster in Seattle, WA. It is a delicious and refreshing seasonal boba drink that is well...
Read moreI think the Packing Houses was definitely in need of a boba option. Luckily a mini Snow Monster is here to save the day!
If you're debating whether you should buy the reusable jar or not, definitely do it! I've already tested it out and the jar holds more than a trenta drink from Starbucks! So whether you're planning on returning or not, it's still very convenient. Luckily with these new jars, the logos are already part of the jar, so need to worry about the logo coming off.
I wish they offered at least one iced coffee option. The drinks they offer are great and full of caffeine, but it would be nice if they offered an iced coffee option as well. Nonetheless, the strawberry lemonade is very sweet and refreshing. The matcha latte doesn't have an overpowering matcha taste, which is nice.
Service was very welcoming and able to answer any questions. I opted in for the cotton candy and it left my reusable jar with a very sticky sugary residue once I had finished the cotton candy. The girls at the cashier were kind enough to wash it off...
