When it comes to Bubble Tea, I can get a little picky. Imagine by excitement when discovering…read moreChatime! This store originates from Taiwan and what makes them a little different to other bubble tea chains, is this store brews their tea in house, on the spot. So all its customers are guaranteed fresh and delicious tea. They make the largest selection of Tea's I've seen. It seems to be around 50 different types divided into categories. These are; Mellow Milk Tea, Fresh Tea, Oriental Pop Tea, Special Fruit Tea/ Juice, Energetic Healthy Tea, QQ Jelly, Coffee and Smoothie Series. The guys who work here are pretty cool. They're friendly and quite funny. Everyone has to try Chatimes' Bubble Tea, insanely good at around $4.70 for regular and $5.20 for large. Super delicious!

My husband loves the Lychee black tea with coconut jelly. It's nice and sweet, but doesn't leave you feeling too full or sickly like the milk teas tend to. What's special about Tea ETC is they let you pick your tea, pick the temperature and pick your sweetness. I'm not sure if people like to drink their tea hot, but you can request ice to make it super cold. They serve it without ice otherwise. But I think the ability to pick your sweetness is great! I'm weening myself off sugar in other areas of my life, so to be able to ask for my Bubble tea with only half or quarter sugar is fantastic.

Sunnybank is one of those hubs that serves most, if not all, the Asian cuisine you are after. One…read moreof my favourite Asian sweet things to treat myself to are Bubble Tea or Pearl Tea. To my knowledge I have tried almost all of the bubble tea bars in the Sunnybank area (I am such a fan!). I consider myself, quite the bubble tea connoisseur now. I've been back to Tea Etc a few times to order as many different flavours as possible to 'test' it out. I have found that some bubble tea tastes good here, but then also some bubble tea they make don't taste as good as their fellow neighbour Tea bars. For example classic flavoured Bubble Tea like their Milk Tea, tastes yummy and sweet, but then the Taro Milk Tea is passable. Not as delicious as other places I've been to, it's a bit too watered down for my liking. On the few occasions where my favourite go-to bubble tea places are closed and I can't resist a tasty drink, I come here to give it another go- but now, I know which drinks to avoid. An advantage Tea Etc has over some of its neighbours is it is open for an extra hour and a half. While others have closed up shop at 9pm, this place still has one hours and half of service left. This is important to me because, I usually start dinner with friends at around 8pm and often get carried away and forget to order bubble from my favourite place (which closes at 9pm). So when this does happen and if often does on disorganised nights, I wander on over to Tea Etc to have their Milk Tea.... Luckily, they never ruin this classic flavour.

I have tried the Straychee (Strawberry Lychee) teas, the peach teas, the taro milk teas (holy yummy batman) and a few others with the different jelly additions... rainbow jelly, aloe vera jelly... it's all good. I'm not a big fan of super sweet, artificially flavoured bubble teas, and i've tasted my fair share (yes, the shop who sell the bubble tea at the Mt Ommaney Shopping Centre, i'm looking at you). The Tea Bar teas are very nice, not too sweet, not to not sweet... and the pearls are bouncy and soft and not gooey and overcooked. This is very important to me when I enjoy my $4.50 bubble tea. So definetely one of the nicer places for your bubble tea at Indooroopilly.

You can find this Tea Bar tucked away near Hungry Jacks in the Indooroopilly Shopping Centre food court.

I thought, now here's a trendy little bubble tea place... and I love me some bubble tea. I usually get my lychee green tea with pearls but I thought I would try the Macha Latte... a mixture of green tea and milk latte somehow the milk and the green tea part look separate in the cup so you end up walking around with a super cool looking drink. They even ask you the amount of sugar you want in your drink and you can get creme brulee in your drink as well instead of pearls... or both if you're feeling adventurous. I know I know... it sounds weird, but trust me when I say... it is quite the taste sensation that works really well! You'll pay the standard $4-$5 for your drink including jelly or pearls or nothing and the sizes are pretty good too. They even ask you if you want ice in your bubble tea. Very friendly staff mixed with interesting looking combinations for your tea drinking delight... this is an international Taiwanese chain starting out in Australia. I think it's got a fair bit of competition but I also think it may do pretty damn well.

While…read moreI do love an Easyway, Chai Time in Toowong Shopping Village has its own unique range of teas that are absolutely to die for. The first time I tried their Pink Grapefruit Green tea I was in love. It was the perfect blend of sweetness with a flavour that makes my mouth water even as I talk of it now. The staff are always friendly and the service is quick. I must admit that I have craved their tea to the point that I have made special trips to Toowong just for a cup of it. I highly recommend you try some. In fact, I think I might go and get some right now...

So either finish it before leaving or drink it when you reach your final destination otherwise you may have to deal with picking up boba from your car floor.

Don't confuse this shop with the Sakuraya at Sunnybank Market Square which serves both food and…read moredessert drinks. The Eight Mile Plain Sakuraya is exclusively a dessert/ drinks bar and a popular one at that. Even though it only opened last year, this shop has a faithful following lounging around in the indoor/ outdoor dining area, sipping drinks, munching on those glutinous Japanese rice balls and just people watching in general. They do the usual assortment of pearl milk teas and fruity green/black teas. When I went last weekend, I wanted to try something a little different so the waitress recommended a Winter Melon Yoghurt drink. This was perfect for the hot weather but I would only recommend it if you enjoy drinks with a distinct sour sweetness such as Yakult. They also stock a range of gelati that I've never heard of called Norgen Vaaz though I'm willing to give it a go if it is as tasty as their drinks range.

The Green Apple and Strawberry flavours are particularly nice. Tea Bar also serves milk / soy shakes, Pearl Milk Tea and Bubble Pearl Tea. Depending on what drink you order, and whether you order a Regular or Large size, pricing ranges from $4.30 to $5.40 per drink. You also have the option of paying an extra 60 - 80c for an additional topping to be added to your drink. Some of these toppings are very nice, such as the grape gems and the mango gems. The staff are nice, the pricing is reasonable and the wait time for a drink is usually pretty quick. I highly recommend giving them a try.
