On the corner of Scott and Elgin, ThirsTea was literally a cool breeze in the hot sun. Large windows made it bright but the awning kept it from being overbearingly hot as we perused the menu of drink options. They have milk tea, iced tea, chai, smoothies, slushies, rolled ice cream, and snacks. I got an iced pink chai latte made with oatmilk and cajun fries. The chai, pink due to a variation straight from India, was delicious. Smooth, not overly sweet, and refreshing. The fries were well seasoned and hot enough to make me do The Thing. You know the thing (hafhafhaf) you do when the food is too hot to eat immediately but too yummy to wait? Yeah, that thing. The woman who helped us was so sweet and attentive. This was the perfect stop on this hot day. I look forward to trying other things on the menu.

They used to make good thai tea but recently the proportions have been off where it tastes too milky, not sure if they changed the menu or if it's the baristas. As for food options, they have kimbap and some desserts that they make in store. I've never tried them. I sometimes buy their instant ramen options that they make for you and give radish on the side. Everything is a little pricey but it's worth the convenience. Service is straightforward and usually quick. It's a nice area to study with wifi and bathrooms available for customers. There are outlets near tables along the walls. Parking is shared with the other places in the strip so it's limited, but I usually find a spot.

It was easily the best boba shop in the area, so I was genuinely sad when that location closed. Teapresso Bar was founded in 2014 in Hawaii by Steve Nguyen, starting in downtown Honolulu and growing across the islands as a healthier alternative in the coffee and milk tea market. The Houston locations opened in 2018, and the brand emphasizes community, sustainability, and quality ingredients. Each drink is served in compostable cups and straws, and they're known for being gathering spots with board games and WiFi available. We were in East Downtown on a Saturday morning and were excited to see a Teapresso location at 2929 Navigation Blvd. They have a private parking lot shared with neighboring businesses, which makes it easy. Inside, there are a few small tables to the left if you plan to stay and enjoy your drink. [BUBBLE TEA] +Peach Cantaloupe Green Tea with half sweet, light ice, and tapioca for $6.70 - This is my go-to order here and one of the most unique bubble tea flavors I've found anywhere. The peach and cantaloupe combination is refreshing and balanced, and it's consistently good every time. - 5/5 Overall, I'm so happy to have Teapresso back in reach. It remains one of my favorite boba spots in Houston, and the Peach Cantaloupe Green Tea alone keeps me coming back.

The service was friendly, and I ordered the Taiwan Pineapple fruit green tea with 100% sugar. Surprisingly, the sweetness was quite subtle, and so was the tartness of the pineapple, though I did appreciate the little chunks at the bottom. The tea also wasn't very prominent. While I consider Teahouse one of the more affordable boba shops in Houston, I had to give it four stars because my fruit tea was bland and watery. Not bad, but nothing special either. Teahouse is more of a place I would visit if I need a late-night spot to study and don't want to drink coffee.

There were a few reserved parking spots out front for their business and ample additional parking. I decided on a non-caffeinated drink since it was well past my caffeine cutoff for the day. The store was empty when I got there so I was quickly able to place my order for honey lemon fruit tea with aloe. There were two employees so my drink came out pretty fast. A few more people lined up after me but the employees were quite efficient with the drinks. The shop itself is cute and was nicely decorated for Christmas. We were easily able to grab a table for two. My drink was very light and refreshing and so well-balanced. Sometimes bubble tea places err on the sweeter side but I did not have that issue here! The aloe was soft and fun to bite down on. I would certainly stop by here again if I find myself in the area!

Parking situation is subpar in their large parking lot, one of the downsides of this plaza. It's always a pain parking to visit any restaurants in between Yale and Heights. Anyways, the interior is fairly clean and modern, the menu is small and concise and the staff of two worked hard to get drinks made quickly. I enjoyed my matcha brown sugar drink (with boba and matcha pudding). The boba had really nice texture and the matcha was also fairly heavy. I got oat milk with mine, which is nice that they're not using whole milk or milk powder. Most of the drinks are in the $6-7 range, which again is fairly standard for the nicer boba spots. It's a nice boba tea option for the Heights!
