Never came here when it was CiTea but finally tried them as Pawfect Drinks. First, they are a bit off the beaten path which I actually like. Parking in back and on residential street. They open late (10 pm) and have a very inviting interior that encourages people to sit down and lounge. For the durian lovers out there (not me)... they have durian offerings for you between durian or durian/avocado. I tried the Banana Yogurt Shake. I've had the purple rice yogurt shake before from other yogurt drink yogurt shakes offered and since I like bananas, I had to try it. And, WOW, this was really good!!! Also tried the Peach Oolong Milk Tea that also hit the spot if you're not looking for a shake. Check out my pics! read more

My wife ordered six drinks from Ubereats, and when the Ubereats arrived, I loved the boba cup. It's a reasonable size, and the drinks are all delicious. Come support the boba shop, especially the delicious Mango Pomelo Sago, so good!! read more

Used Uber Eats to order the peach yogurt shake for the BOGO deal. I got half sugar but it was still on the sweeter side. There are slices of peach at the bottom but they taste like the canned peaches? The peach yogurt itself was pretty good though, a nice thick texture. read more

Pawfect Drinks - Peach yogurt shake - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Gabriel, California

Came here because they had yogurt drinks similar to those you can find in China. We got peach and mango. Both were really yummy but we both liked the mango more bc of the flavor and it was thicker, more yogurt like. Peach one I find a little too sweet and artificial. Not sure if they do sugar adjustments but it wasn't on the option when we ordered it. Overall not bad n would come again for other flavors. read more

#116 in my Teaholic Diaries. I first tried Pawfect Drinks through postmates, and I liked it so much that I made it a point to stop by. Out of the few drinks I've tried so far, the magnolia oolong milk tea was my favorite. The magnolia flavor was prominent without being overpowering, and it meshed well with the oolong tea base. I also enjoyed the sparkling grape, which tasted like grape candy. Both drinks were delicious, but I should have adjusted the sweetness on the sparkling grape - it's SUPER sweet as is. I'll definitely be noting that for next time. Most recently I tried their duck oolong milk tea (aka Dan cong oolong aka phoenix oolong), which is my favorite type of oolong tea. The version here was solid, though I still prefer the versions at Tatys and Ryu. Anyways, I look forward to trying the rest of their menu! ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it. read more

I seriously vouch for this place, the smoothies are absolutely elite. Get the yogurt smoothies, especially the purple rice yogurt drink. It is fanthombly the best yogurt smoothie i have tried in sgv read more

Duck Shit Tea? Say Less. So there I was, casually scrolling through Postmates like any other day, when BAM--a BOGO deal for Pawfect Drinks caught my eye. Naturally, as a certified drink enthusiast (and sucker for a good deal), I clicked faster than my caffeine-deprived brain could process. But what really got me? The Duck Shit tea. Yes, you read that right. I laughed so hard I nearly dropped my phone and thought, "I don't know what this is, but I need it in my life." Here's the lowdown on my tea-scapade: Duck Shit Tea (75% Sweet, with Boba): Surprisingly... good?! Like, it's the kind of floral tea that whispers, "You're cultured now," while you giggle at its name. The boba was impressively soft, even after chilling in my fridge for three days. (BOGO = meal prep for drinks, obviously.) If I did it again, I'd go 50% sweet since the boba itself is sweet enough, but hey, live and learn. Honestly, it wasn't mind-blowing, but trying it was an experience--and the flood of IG DMs from friends asking about it made it worth every sip. Pawfect Fruit Tea (50% Sweet): This one hit the spot! The subtle tea flavor (black tea, I think?) paired beautifully with the fruity notes. Perfectly balanced at 50% sweet, letting the tea take the spotlight like the diva it is. Magnolia Milk Tea (75% Sweet): Eh, it was okay. Like that one distant cousin at family reunions--not terrible, but not someone you'd actively seek out. Pawfect Drinks gave me a story, some solid teas, and a reason to laugh every time I say "Duck Shit tea" out loud. read more

One of my favorite spots for their yogurt shakes! I love their strawberry yogurt shake. Inside they have plenty of tables long with free WiFi to those who want to come and study. In addition they also have a good amount of games and activities provided if you and your friends want to go and hang out! read more

This place pleasantly surprised me. Went on Uber Eats and found a BOGO deal. Was feeling sparkling drinks and I'm glad they had a variety! Tried out the "Make You Thinner" - a dragon fruit sparkling soda, with chia seeds, lychee jelly, and lime slices. Got it less sugar, less ice. I liked that it was double sealed. Kept it fizzy. Drink was really refreshing! A new go to for my sparkling drink needs. And a good size as well. read more

Ordered the Jasmine Green Milk Tea with less ice and sugar through Uber Eats since they had a deal. The milk tea was good with authentic tea taste and not sweet after the adjustments. There was still a bit too much ice even with less ice though. The cup size is also decent and pretty worth. Overall, a pretty good place for jasmine milk tea! read more

Having work near this Citea location is a bit dangerous for me. I often order off either Hungry Panda or Fantuan. This place was the gateway for the app for me honestly. I love they have many drinks that I have never heard of and it was interesting and worth trying. Walking in, you can see a fridge on the left of the entrance and they are filled with a selection of a few drinks that you can pick up for $3!! If you do a social media post about this place, you are given a little teapot that has been going on social media recently. The workers are always attentive here and always greeting you. Personally, I love the lychee oolong drink here as well as the duck poop tea. I thought it was pretty good but not my "cup of tea" It was more of a limeade I would say. Overall, I will keep coming back here. I believe I came here once 4 times in one week for my fill of lychee oolong. read more

**FOOD DELIVERY REVIEW ** When my partner and I were craving boba one late night, we just HAD to try this place when we saw the word "Duck sh*t" in their oolong milk tea tea in the options lmfao We did a double take and had to make sure we were reading that right! Although we still don't know what it is exactly, it was so good LOL! Safe to say, we had ordered Uber eats delivery from this place many times and was always satisfied! The drinks were always made so fast, packaging was always secure, and the delivery driver and whole process was always smooth. Definitely one day my partner and I can come inside to get these drinks in person! Drinks we tried (and all loved): -Magnolia Oolong Milk Tea -Duck Sh*t Oolong Milk Tea -Coconut Latte Coffee -Strawberry Yogurt Shake read more

Walking in Interior is really clean has decent amount of tables would be perfect for studying!!! The lady is really nice and helpful with the menu! We got watermelon coconut n avocado smoothie. Both were amazing and made with real fruit! Will be coming back :) read more

4.5 stars. Been here when it was Ci Tea many years ago. Heard they rebranded to Pawfect Drinks. It's sorta cute with the paws & doggie theme with Disney font. My drinks were okay (drinkable/acceptable), but bf's Hawthorn Yogurt Shake was good. He liked it. Kinda makes me want to try Dragonfruit Yogurt Shake. Liked the yogurt drinks so much, went back again just to get those. DRINKS: Hawthorn Yogurt Shake 5/5 Dragonfruit Yogurt Shake 5/5 Mango Avocado Smoothie 4/5 Boba Milo 4/5 Very rich and thick. Feel like this drink needs more milk or add half n half. Waiting for the ice to melt is a good idea cuz it tastes better after it's diluted. Magnolia Oolong Milk Tea w/ Brown Sugar Boba add-on 3.5/5 Quite fragrant and very milky Golden Kiwi 3.5/5 It sounded good. Tasted fine/alright. Didn't wow me or anything. Just saw the info under "History". They're not a franchise of Ci Tea anymore. They've established Pawfect Drinks as their own brand. Oh, and I like their rewards program - a good one. read more

We came here after lunch to get the special cup that they supposedly have based on the other reviews, where there is a little teapot that spits out "smoke." Spoiler alert: They did not have it :( Otherwise, it seems their claim to fame might be CBD-infused drinks which we did not try. We ended up getting a few drinks including duck sh*t milk oolong milk tea with boba. We did end up getting 1 level less sweet and less ice. I think the level sweetness we ended up getting was perfect for us. I thought this milk tea tasted like a standard black milk tea but I can definitely appreciate that it is oolong. I also ended up getting a fruit tea that had pieces of peach in there. The tea was very refreshing and fragrant. I added sakura agar boba and it added an extra nice chewy texture. I got this drink also 1 level less sweet, but I would get it full sweetness next time so that when the ice melts it a bit, the fruit flavor would be more prominent. Of note, the ice had a weird taste to it when it melted into my drink. Other things I noticed...if you want to order CBD infusion to your drink, I believe you have to order the "chill" in your drink. They offer interesting options like durian, as well. As far as the ambiance... -The shop has a cute turtle tank at the front with two turtles. -The shop is also very spacious, with plenty of seating. However, it was (somewhat) surprisingly empty inside. There was 1 food delivery person who did come through when we were there. -Fair amount of parking outside on the side, not really a dedicated parking lot One of my family members had a little spill and they went back into the shop to get napkins. It sounds like the employee helping her felt bad, so they ended up giving her some drink holders and stickers, which was pretty sweet! Overall, I would totally come back to try other drinks! read more

We have been coming here since they were Ci-Tea and recently re-branded to Pawfect Drinks. We love their Jasmine Milk Tea and tried all their sparkling drinks. Every drink is pretty solid and a good value! On this occasion, the owners(?) saw our Pomeranian and were visibly excited. When they gave us our drinks, which took less than 5 mins, they also gave us a little cup of dog treats. Although we come here often, it's little touches like this that keeps us coming back :) read more

Been coming to this place since it was Citea, loveeeeee this place and the owner are super nice and and the staffs are amazing. One time I accidentally went to the Citea on E Valley Blvd thinking it would be the same since it was the franchise, but no, ordered Durian Avocado Smoothie and it was nowhere even closed to this place. And later I find out they are no longer with Citea ( absolutely happy they did exited) I'm also obsessed with the Duck Shiet tea the name is so funny, can't stop laughing whenever mentioned it to my friend. Highly highly recommended this place read more

Pawfect Drinks - Durian Avocado Smoothie + popping barley boba : my new obsession for the past few months - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Gabriel, California

I've been working hard to tone down my boba habit due to the usual sugar and syrups in the drinks. The one exception for me, where I do not feel guilty afterward, is Citea. They use fresh fruit in their drinks - including exotic choices like ube and durian. You can also order low sugar or no sugar. I've been to the other branch on Valley Blvd. and ordered the coconut drink, which is awesome. At this branch I ordered the passion fruit drink which has chopped and sliced fruits. I added the barley popping boba which provides texture and a nutty flavor. Just delicious. The parking is easier at this branch and the tablet pre-order makes it fast and easy. The shop has a great ambiance as well with whimsical decor. read more

I decided on the Hawthorn Yogurt and Make You Thinner. Sadly, they don't sell Yogurts with the bottles anymore :( but both were still tasty and refreshing!

Drinks: 3/5 The drinks are so so. Nothing amazing about it. The Boba Sugar Lava Milk was watery at best. The God Bless You tasted and looked artificial. The names are interesting, but feels forced like they wanna stand out and be different. However, it just overcomplicates ordering drinks. Oh and they apparently don't have boba at 3PM. Service: 1/5 Service was not good. The cashier lady gave so much attitude to me when I was asking her about the "Brown Sugar Lava Milk w/ Brown Sugar Crystal Boba". It's on the postmates app and my boss wanted it so I wanted to make sure that it was the same drink. She kept telling me that they don't serve that drink but they do have Brown Sugar Lava Milk, crystal boba, and brown sugar crystal boba. I restated okay, so can I get the Brown Sugar Lava Milk w/ Brown Sug- then she cuts me off saying WE HAVE NO BOBA ONLY CRYSTAL BOBA. I'm a little shocked right now. So I say, okay but you have crystal boba right? I wanna order the - At this point I'm just trying to get a word in and she just keeps acting like she knows everything and saying NO and finally I raise my voice and say I understand you don't have boba, what I'm trying to order is the BROWN SUGAR CRYSTAL BOBA that you said you have. Price: 1/5 I don't think it's worth $7. Sunright is, but this place isn't. TLDR: 1) They don't have boba. 2) They charge you a card fee. 3) They also force tip you without your consent. I didn't do the tip, because of the attitude she gave me and yet their system automatically tipped when I inputted my signature and no tip. 4) Price is not worth the attitude and drinks. Almost $20 for two so-so drinks and bad mojo. 5) Service is subpar. Don't plan on coming back. read more

I hate to do this to a mom and pop, especially when they are so friendly. But, I came by last night. It wasn't busy but it looked like only one person working, so it took a bit to get our drinks. Since most of the drinks come with toppings I didn't think anything of it. But when I came to drink it, something plastic-like and I bit into it and spit it out. I thought it could be plastic cover and it came out by accident. But, can't figure out what is it. This probably won't be my go-to anymore. So bummed out! read more

Not too happy. The drink was ok. I ordered a drink that had kiwi and strawberries. Fresh fruit. And yea. Sounded good. But the reason I'm giving two stars is because of the price. $9!!! Maybe y'all balling but I'm not spending that much on a drink anymore. Last time I checked, fruit is cheap. Yea is cheap. Why so much? Maybe hype and location. Cool ambiance. Service was good too. Nice place to chill. No lie. But not for me. Not hating. Just sharing my experience. But they're doing well, they don't need my business. read more

Drink: -0.5 They have a lot of special names, which make the drinks so interesting! They are famous for their fruit/ fresh pressed fruit. "make u thinner" - $6. lychee sparkling water with dragon fruit. It taste great and looks amazing!! But I didn't taste any dragon fruit, all about the lychee flavor. "Come into your kingdom" - $6. Also very pretty drink! My friend said it tastes good. SERVICE: -0.5 The staff is very friendly. They have a promotion as "U can get 20% off if u show the receipt of food purchase in the plaza". We were dine-in next door at the Korean restaurant, while we were waiting for our food, I came here to buy the drink. I asked the staff if I can have 20% off? She insisted that I had to show the receipt. A little bit stubborn, but I can understand, because she is only an employee and has to follow the rule. Overall, I like this place and recommend. read more
