BOBA Tea- Ethio Cafe — Restaurant in Cascade Charter Township

My husband and I came here on our way to the beach. It was around 5:15 when we visited, I got the passion fruit tea with tapioca pearls and my husband got the lychee sparkling tea with tapioca.

Both were honestly quite mediocre if not just unpleasant. To start this was probably the least amount of boba I’ve gotten at any bubble tea shop and with a charge of .85 I think it should last more than a couple sips. I got 75% sweet and my husband got 50% both of which were still way too sweet but when we asked the worker what they’re standard of sweetness was he said that was up to us without giving us much of an idea what the range could be. I’ve been to shops that the 100% amount is quite balanced so I didn’t think that was a great response. The tea they use or boba, I can’t quite place, have an odd aftertaste that reminds me of a stale cheerio.

For both drinks it was around $15 but without mention or a sign that I say there was a service charge that brought the total to $17 for using card.

So overall not much we enjoyed about this shop. It was clean and didn’t take very long but the negatives outweigh the good of those things at...

What sets them apart from other Boba places is they use syrup instead of powders to flavor the drinks. The flavor is even throughout and never chalky. They also use high end blendtec blenders, so the smoothies are always perfectly blended and smooth throughout. There's never any ice chunks or inconsistencies. There are lots of flavors of milk tea, fruit tea, coffee, yogurt drinks, and smoothies to choose from. My favorites are the honey dew smoothie with strawberry popping boba and tapioca pearls and taro smoothie with rainbow crystal Boba and tapioca pearls. So...

So happy this place opened. Just what the neighborhood needed! Regular boba perfectly chewy, and rainbow boba deliciously fruity! Smoothies were delicious too! We had a honeydew mango smoothie, Thai tea with boba, and taro tea with boba—all were absolutely delicious! They were even gracious enough to bring our order out to the car! Loving this place and looking forward to coming back all summer! Hopefully they eventually start selling food/snacks with the...
