Got their black fresh milk tea - extremely good, and the bobarista was so speedy!
I normally don't drink boba quickly, but this one, I did. It even had me wishing I got a large. Tea flavor was just the right amount, and the boba was also perfectly QQ, not over or underdone. Their 100% sweetness level was good for me, although I imagine there are some who might want it sweeter - they offer sugar levels over 100% 👍🏻
A must try! Located on the first floor of 88 Marketplace, which conveniently has a large parking lot across from the building. Will definitely return another time to try Pure Tea's other drinks and snacks after I do my groceries on the second floor!
EDIT: revisited this place two weeks ago and was VERY disappointed with my drink. I ordered the same thing, it tasted nothing like before. Extremely watery... maybe even the wrong kind of tea was used. Lowering my original rating of...
Read moreThe atmosphere of Pure Tea is very relaxing and comfortable, making it the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a hot cup of tea. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and they are always willing to help you select the perfect tea for your taste.
As for the teas themselves, I tried a few different varieties and was impressed with the quality of each one. While I found the lychee tea to be just okay, I still enjoyed it and appreciated the unique flavor it offered.
What really stood out to me, however, was the wide selection of other teas available. From classic black teas to unique herbal blends, there was something for everyone at Pure Tea. I also appreciated the fact that they offer both hot and iced tea options, which is perfect for those hot summer days.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Pure Tea to anyone looking for a great tea...
Read moreThis place is pretty, warm, has inside seating, is inside the mall in 88 market. It’s decorated nicely. The teas are well priced in that they are not overpriced. They make the teas fresh. It’s a $0.65 cent up charge for bubbles. So it’s very reasonable. Enjoyed the tea here and will return. Clean, pretty, nice freshly brewed tea and charge of bubbles or crystals are slightly cheaper than other places … tasted good.. can ask for less sugar .., nice seating even if it’s small … inside 88 market so nice to shop after or before tea. Inside is a nice ambience. It was also warm w heat blasting bc it’s still cold outside in Chicago like 35 degrees F. So it was cozy....
