This review has been a long time coming. I've been frequenting this shop for years now and I've…read moresince put my whole family and some friends on it as well and everyone loves it! The all-around favorites are the mango pomelo and the Mango Tango (make sure to get it with jasmine tea and they also have a yogurt option if you like some extra tartness)! I think when mangoes are in season they also add fresh mango to the drinks which is a huge plus. I am also a huge milk tea fanatic and personally like my tea very strong without any hint of it being watery. My favorites are the Da Hong Pao and Osmanthus Oolong for extra floral freshness, both at 80% sweetness which is the perfect level imo for even a sweet tooth like me! Their boba is always cooked to the perfect chewiness and my only complaint is that I wish their milk teas had the option of coming in a larger size! The staff is always very cheerful and friendly, something that hasn't changed at all since they opened, which I really appreciate. The space itself is also very bright and spacious with plenty of seating and they also have lots of great snacks which makes it a good spot for hanging out. They also do lots of fun decorations and special events for holidays!

Picked up a few drinks from here after grabbing dinner in Sacramento. Overall, the drinks were…read moredecent with eye-catching gradients and flavors that felt pretty standard for an American-style boba shop. The space has a trendy aesthetic with neon lights and modern decor, making it a fun spot to hang out. It wasn't too busy on a Friday evening, and service was quick. - Ube Drink -- creamy ube and milk tea blend; the ube flavor came through nicely, though the boba was a bit firmer than I prefer - Strawberry Matcha -- layered with strawberry purée on the bottom and matcha on top; on the milkier side, with a pleasant balance between the fruity and earthy flavors The drinks looked great and were made quickly. A solid stop if you're in the area and looking for a colorful boba fix.

The fruit drinks are really good. Cons are the app is not useful in Elk Grove location and I haven't gotten any rewards even though I put in my phone number like other boba places. I like their happy hour if I stumbled upon it. Edit: Their customer support is great. Pending on point system... Will update once I go again

This method of meticulous drink preparation was evident in the strong matcha flavor that was not powdery or overly bitter. There were chunks of mango in the drink which were sweet and complimented the mango well. The ambiance of this establishment felt like a nightclub with the very loud hip hop music. It was very uncomfortable to sit here and enjoy my drink with the loud music blaring. I quickly left and enjoyed my drink on my drive home. I came here during an advertised Easter promotion, however the workers were unaware of the promotion and were providing false information. I later called to obtain additional information regarding the promotion and the employee needed to confirm the specifics of the promotion. Service was average as the workers were friendly, however incompetent by providing false information regarding the advertised promotion.

My friend ordered the strawberry matcha while I went with the guava matcha, both easy on the sugar. At this point I feel like we're unofficial matcha critics because it's one of our favorite drinks to hunt down, and both were absolutely delicious. I especially loved that you could see the fruit in the drinks. My friend's strawberry matcha had beautiful macerated strawberries throughout, and my guava matcha was refreshing and not overly sweet. Both felt fresh and well balanced, which isn't always easy to find. The vibe inside is really lovely and makes for a great place to sit and chat. Unfortunately, the tables were a bit of a challenge. The first one we sat at was extremely uneven, so we moved to another table only to discover it had the same issue. Not a deal breaker, but definitely noticeable. I also noticed the space was pretty dusty, and it didn't seem like the air conditioning was working very well. Sacramento summers are no joke, and we were both feeling the heat. Let's just say our moisture-wicking clothes were working overtime. Even with those little hiccups, the drinks were the star of the show and I'd happily come back for another one. Helpful tip: If you're a matcha lover, try one of the fruit matchas and ask for easy sugar. The flavors really shine through that way. Overall, great drinks, a cute atmosphere, and definitely a spot I'll be returning to when the matcha craving hits.

Came in Koalatea for the first time, after passing by on numerous occasions. As we arrived we made…read moreour way to the back hoping to find parking, and ended up finding their small parking lot in the back. My girlfriend and I looked over the menu and I inquired about the different between the Brown Sugar Latte and the Okinawa Milk Tea. As those were the 2 that I was interested in, to which she noted the Latte coffee based and the other black tea based. And just FYI for the reason I asked, is because I'd had an Okinama milk tea drink at another location, but it was more of a dessert type of milk tea, with a whipped cream topping and oreo. So I wasn't sure if it was that type of drink, and or similar with other locations just adding a fancy spin on theor version. Ordered: Okinawa Milk Tea with Boba Coco puff with crushed Oreos Strawberry Mango Tango with Rainbow Jelly The young lady at the register informed us that they were out of black Boba and it would be anout an hr before they had more ready. But she also mentioned that there was enough for 1 drink but not enough for a standard, so she'd not charge us for the half amount.. which I thought was really nice of her. Overall: Great brown sugar milk tea, aka the Okinama Milk tea. I really enjoyed it and it was really nice for that staff member. To have offered the remaining Boba they had and to not charge us since it wasn't a full order. The other two drinks my girlfriend and son said they enjoyed as well. Would definitely come back for another drink or two when in the area, and looking for a Boba fix!

The milk teas did not have a strong tea flavor. It felt like I was mostly drinking milk with a hint of tea. The boba didn't seem fresh either. At least half of the bobas in our drinks were hard and unappetizing. Maybe we got an old batch of boba. For $6-7 per drink, I would go elsewhere.

I guess I'm still on a boba crawl because how did I miss this boba cafe. I was getting food in the…read moreplaza and was like, 'I feel like some boba'. Did a Yelp search and voila, it was right next door. Lol. I ordered a fruit tea on their self service kiosk. Wasn't busy so as they prepared my boba tea, I explored. Some of you may be excited to know they have the mini-claw arcade and a token machine. I'm not sure if it's trendy but I have noticed these machines popping-up everywhere. This boba cafe wasnt busy during lunch so ordering was easy. Not much interaction with staff but maybe thats on purpose. I do appreciate the message on my cup, 'don't forget to smile' It's nice to know there are still boba places to discover.

I was super excited to try out Presotea, And I tried it two times now…read more On my first visit I tried a jasmine tea, which is my baseline for comparing Boba shops. I substitute the dairy or opening, made it less sweet, with less ice. I added boba, And was disappointed because the bubble was not sweetened and there was a lot more food than expected compared to other boba shops. The pearls are also smaller than used to. My other drink was a white peach tea, also. For both milk teas that I received, I could barely taste any tea. Those teas we are also very lightly sweetened when I requested for less sugar. I think that full sweetness actually would be enough sweetness for me since I usually get one level last week anyway. For the third drink, I ordered a enemies coffee, At my second visit, I tried signature fruit tea and the hojicha winter melon tea with pudding. The signature fruit tea was 100% sweetness and was not really sweet. I had also asked for the size. For the winter melon milk tea, I opted for the regular dairy option, which made the drink creamier than the first drinks. I had full sweetness for the string, which was pretty sweet considering that there are winter melon pieces in there, which would be a burst of sweetness. Overall the shop is very clean, plenty of seating. Service was pretty friendly! Overall, this is a solid boba shop for this side of Elk Grove!

I almost decided to not order anything since I felt full from ramen but with reasonable prices and the opportunity to try a new yogurt-based boba drink (I haven't seen many of them in Sac), I thought why not. 25% sugar is the move for Strawberry Blizz ($6.75). It's a strawberry blend with a wonderful conglomeration of flavors between the smoothness of the strawberries, harder textured apples/mangoes, and honey aftertaste of the boba. I didn't sample the milk or fruit teas but I highly recommend giving the yogurt blizz drinks a try instead.

Moo moo has a selection of snacks and other dessert, however when I looked at the menu, I noticed that many items where not available anymore and covered by a post in. They have a selection of snacks like tofu and chicken, or you can go next door for some ramen. Service: I asked for a Jasmine milk tea but was given a black milk tea. Secondly, I asked for half sweet and their drinks are over sweet. I realky like their ube cloud foam. I like the vibe of the location and love that it is clean. I came in on a Monday and there weren't many customers. I would study here, there are a few outlets available for charging.
