@n25tea.ny is a shop that sells beautiful classic and unique boba drinks! Many of the flavors were familiar, but many were new to us. All the drinks were pretty and aesthetic!
ft: -shingen jelly mulberry fruit tea: this was my personal favorite. i don't think i have had a mulberry drink before but it tastes very similar to black berry. it was perfectly sweet and not too tart. all of n25's fruit teas are made with real fruit which i thought was great. there were a lot of seeds however, so if you aren't too big of a seed person, this one might not be for you! i really loved the shingen jellies. they were softer than the lychee jellies i usually like eating and had this herbal taste to it. i loved it so much! -brown sugar boba: classic! it wasn't too sweet which is awesome. the tapiocas pearls were perfectly chewy. you can never go wrong with brown sugar boba!!! -ube viet-coffee: wow!! i never had viet coffee before and i understand why people hype it up!! i usually dont drink coffee, and i really enjoyed this! the creamy ube coconut on top went perfect with the french dark roasted coffee on the top. it was really a treat -pandan coconut viet-coffee: similar to the ube viet-coffee, the creaminess if the pandan coconut blended perfectly with the coffee. it tasted similar to the ube coconut, but less sweet. at first my friends liked the ube better but then the pandan coconut grew on them. both the ube and pandan were so pretty! raspberry nitro fruffee: i also have never had a fruffee! i'm not a huge coffee person so i could be biased, but this one was okay compared to the other ones. i did enjoy the raspberry covering the strong coffee taste though!

Read moreI never realized until I did some further research that this shop is a cross collab between N25 Nitro Tea and My's Banh Mi. I've never had either of the two so I got to experience both and would probably come back to try out other menu items.
From the N25 Nitro Tea menu, I ordered a few drinks to try with my friends: Shingen Jelly Raspberry Fruit Tea ($8.50) - This was a best seller as I was told. Very refreshing and really liked the taste of the Shingen Jelly complementing the drink. Passion Fruit Nitro Fruffee ($7.50) - I've had nitro cold brew, but flavored nitro cold brew is a creation of its kind. Adding the passion fruit pulp may be a bit much, but I guess that's their way to showing that it's not artificial flavoring. I am a fan of this. Ruby Melon Fruit Tea ($8) - This is a seasonal drink the staff member recommended. Super refreshing.
From the My's Banh Mi's menu, I got an order of the House Special Banh Mi ($14), which I also enjoyed. This consisted of Lemongrass Beef, BBQ Pork, Vietnamese butter, cilantro, carrots, daikon, and jalapeño. Emphasis on the jalapeño as they're a bit sneaky hiding in the sandwich. From this menu, this is also where you can order the popular Vietnamese Coffee that comes in Pandan-Coconut, Egg Cream, and Ube-Coconut, as well as the original. Will have to give that a...
Read moreAfter seeing ads on IG for their snowy jasmine milk tea and that they were running a BOGO free promo, I knew I had to stop by! 2 drinks for the price of 1 in this day and age where 1 bubble tea drink usually costs almost $10? Sign me up!
You do have to walk down some steps to get to the store but I think there's a button or phone number you can call if you're unable to walk down the stairs.
The shop is quite small. Not really somewhere you can linger for a long time. There were only 4 bar stool type seats with small tables. It's only been a few days since their grand opening and the staff seem to have everything under control. I didn't have to wait too long for my two drinks and they packed them into a bag too.
The snowy jasmine tea is jasmine tea flavored whipped cream on top of jasmine milk tea. Wish they had oat milk options! The whipped cream was tasty and I could taste the jasmine tea. I got 100% sweetness though I think I might try a lower sugar level as it was a tiny bit too sweet for me. Compared to Molly Tea, I'd have to say that for me Molly Tea is still #1 (there's just something different/more fragrant) though N25's jasmine milk tea is a...
