Mad Hatter’s Tea Party #4

Erin Blevins

This year I went a little mad with all the tea shops in Springfield, specifically all of the bubble tea shops. The stores that sell American style tea are all included in most coffee houses, though, if you decide to pick something different. I am going to do a recap of where I’ve been, and suggestions of where to go in the new year.

The shop with the most overall options was La Boba Cafe. They had variety with both food and drinks. They have lots of different flavors and add-ins for your drink. The shop wasn’t super big, but it definitely had a lot of things to try.

The most accessible was either Sno Buble Tea (the shop in the mall) or Socie Tea. The one in the mall is more convenient, because when you are shopping or just walking around the mall it’s really easy to get food and drinks there. Socie Tea is on Sunshine, which is near a lot of other main shops and places. 

The best shop, in my opinion, was either Socie Tea or La Boba Cafe. They have the most options and I think the best tasting tea. The boba and add-ins have more flavor than the other shops. Socie Tea has the best ascetic look, La Boba has the worst and is also the farthest from the main roads in Springfield. Socie Tea has traditional Korean desserts that go really well with your drinks.

Overall, every shop had good tea, it just depends on where you are and what type of mood your in. If it’s not a boba mood, then go to Mudhouse.
