i-Tea Oakland — Restaurant in Oakland

My co-worker started all this, hey I don't mind ordering if you don't mind picking up on a really really hot day. I've tried different things to see what I would like since this is very different from the Quickly menu. So far, I've liked everything. Matcha Green Tea Creama. YUM! Milk tea with pudding, it rocked. I was wondering why would you put pudding in your drink, but this is more like a really thick flan pudding. They put large scoops of the pudding and you suck it through the straw. I saw Boba Noodles as an add on, but they ran out today. It's ok, I have plenty of time to try it. One thing I really like is that you can decide how much ice and how sweet you want your drink. I usually go 30% ice and 50% sweet. Don't forget to pick up the frequent buyer card and if you buy 5 you get 1 free if it's all...

This place looks super popular because of the long line on the street, but in reality, you can only fit like 3 people in the space. They have a pretty extensive menu, but I went with the kiwi tea with kiwi pieces in it. You order, stand on the street and they kinda of bring it to you as in they come to the doorway and call out your order. They kiwi tea was pretty good. It was sweet enough to how I like it and the kiwi pieces wasn't too sour or too over/underriped. My sister got the mango sago which was actually really good. It was a taaad too sweet (even for me), but I really liked it. It had good flavor and good texture. She's addicted to that stuff.

Overall, the drinks were good. I would probably come back and get the mango sago or try...

Probably one of my favorite places in the whole of the Bay Area to get good decent boba/milk tea. To me, their flavors are better than Boba Guys, which is much more expensive and flavors aren’t as good. My favorite flavor is their taro milk tea, made with actual taro! Chunks of it, to be exact. It’s delicious and the boba is always nice and chewy. I also have tried their signature milk tea, which had a nice roasted tea flavor and is good if you want something a little different than traditional milk tea. I always ask for 30% sweetness as this shop makes the drinks quite sweet, and the sweetness is enough for me to be satisfied but not feel sickly after finishing my drink....
