Tastea Delta Shores (Sacramento) — Restaurant in Sacramento

When I used to live in southern California, Tastea was always one of my favorite go-to tea shops. Upon moving to Sacramento, I was overjoyed to discover that they have a Tastea location in the area (though a bit out of the way for me) I knew I had to pay them a visit.

Tastea is a tea shop that offers wide variety of drinks, especially well-known for their fruit teas, along with their signature karate chicken, fries, and (more recently) calamari if you're looking for a bite to eat to go along with your beverage. Located in the Delta Shores complex, this Tastea location offers plenty of parking. The store itself is mid-sized with about three tables and two benches inside. It's a decent amount of seating, but not the most plentiful especially if you arrive during their busy hours. That being said, however, since it is located in a complex there's some outdoor seating, and you always have the option to take your drink and go on a stroll outside too.

This weekend we decided to get a cup of their strawberry ecsteasy, which is a strawberry black tea with black jelly (though we subbed the black jelly for lychee jelly instead), and a large order of their karate chicken (which unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of before devouring). For the karate chicken you can chose a spice level between 1-5, I went with the 1 since my spice tolerance is pretty much non-existent.

Strawberry ecsteasy is one of (if not my absolute) favorite drink from Tastea. As a forever fan of fruit teas, I appreciate how the fruit notes really shine through in their teas without overpowering the tea flavor as well. Not only are their drinks well-balanced and refreshing, but their karate chicken (or popcorn chicken) is always so crispy and juicy - truly the perfect combination for a mid-afternoon snack.

If you're a fan of high-quality tea drinks and haven't given Tastea a sip yet, then what are you waiting for? Definitely go check them out when you get the chance!

These are the Avocado Avalanche and the Vietnamese Iced Coffee drinks from Tastea in Sacramento! 💚 I felt like the avocado drink was alrigghtttttt, the flavor could have been stronger haha However, I do have to say that this avocado drink is probably better than Quickly! For the Vietnamese iced coffee, I think it basically tastes like regular coffee; but it tasted nice. I feel like the drinks were not super special or life-changing though, just your typical boba drinks? The inside of this shop was cool! It was very clean and organized! Probably the cleanest boba shop I’ve ever gone to haha It was good to finally try...

My first time here and it was great! I love the location static in. I would always spot it when doing some local shopping and so I finally decided to try it. Love the decor inside and the staff were so nice! I downloaded the app and used their mobile ordering system. By the time I arrived it was ready to go. With my first drink, I ordered a matcha milk tea with almond milk and full stevia instead of regular sugar. The second drink was a PeachMe Sweet tea with Med Stevia. Both were delicious! I love the app how its formatted, very easy. Try the app if you can and here's my invite...
