The Dailies

I live in the building and I like the hot milk teas the best. They are all really good. Even ube taro smoothies are really good. The one pictured here is my favorite.

Very yummy! Cute lil shop in international district. Easy ordering as they have a regular register and then a self-order kiosk. I had their brown sugar drink and the cashier was extremely nice when I poked my straw through the plastic. Very affordable price point.

The Alley in Seattle is a spot for those who prefer a lighter, more subtle milk tea. The tea itself doesn’t have a strong brew, and the sweetness is a bit much for my taste. If you enjoy a more delicate flavor profile, this might be for you, but personally, I won’t be coming back.

The Alley is a new great boba place. Went here for dessert after eating at an also new chinese restaurant close by. The place is clean, cute, cool, nice and bright. Friendly staffs to take your order. Wait time is not long since it wasn't busy when we went there. Good place to chat and hang out. I ordered the Ube Brown Sugar Deerioca Crème Brulee Milk. It was a great choice I made. Boba had right sweetness, softness and chewiness. Creme Br ulee was so good. Ube and brown sugar combination was perfect. I kept on saying yummy after every sip. I asked the people I am with about their boba orders and they said it is delicious too. They ordered lychee yougurt smoothie, original purple rice yogurt smoothie, brown sugar deerioca milk and another of what I have. Left the place sipping our boba and a yummy goodness smile on our faces.

Solid boba place. I got the lychee yogurt smoothie with regular sugar and it was good. It was also really sweet so I think next time I can get 50% sugar and it’ll still taste good. The inside of the restaurant is white and bright. It feels very clean, modern, and fresh. The service is good. This place seems quite popular since there were a few people in the shop already when we arrived (Sunday night), but it didn’t take long for us to order and I didn’t feel like we waited too long for our drinks either.
