I love the pearls here! They're sweet and soft. They also offer oat milk and soy milk as alternatives. The strawberry tea is made with real fruit. Super quick to make your drinks. The place is nestled in a sushi restaurant.
I stopped by here for some drinks before hitting the road. Since I'm out of town, I was interested in giving RareTea a try. It was very refreshing especially for the hot summer day. We got the Mango Green Tea and Rose Matcha Latte with boba. Both drinks were delicious and made for a great drink for the road. If you're looking for a place for boba, this spot is a good option!
This RareTea was located next to a sushi restaurant which makes a really good combination. The servers were super sweet and our tea came out really quickly. I got a large strawberry milk tea smoothie for $6 which is a pretty good price. It was sweet and refreshing! My friend ordered a kiwi fruit tea which also looked good as well. The store was cute and had modern decor.
I have been to this location several times and have always enjoyed their drinks. Rare tea used high quality ingredients you don't find at the run of the mill boba stop like organic milk. The macaroons are on the small side and a tad too sweet for me so I would stay away from them. This location is out of the way so lines are generally not a problem not to mention they are inside Satori Sushi so if you are craving some food this spot is an awesome combo.
I'm usually not all that crazy about boba but wow this was delicious. I got oat milk rather than fresh milk and it was just perfection! The lady working there was sweet and helpful as well.
As the reigning Duchess of Rare Tea, I owe this business an excellent review. This specific RareTea location opened within this last year and has surprisingly dominated my boba patronage since its opening. Before this location opened, Rare Tea was not a boba shop I frequented. Now, it's only boba shop I go to. They have a variety of great quality teas as well as regular milk teas, fruit drinks, snow cream drinks, and matcha drinks. Here are some of my favorites: From the Teapresso Brew section, I love the Roasted Oolong Milk Tea with organic fresh milk with 75% sweetness. I also love the High Mountain Milk Tea with fresh milk. From the Snow Cream section, the Strawberry Berry Snow Cream is the best! It's one of my favorite drinks and a great order during the summer. The snow cream is a little salty but adds an addicting flavor that compliments the drink so well. This drink does have tea in it, which means there is caffeine. The Caramelized Brown Sugar Boba Milk is one of their most popular drinks and it is very tasty, but it is VERY Sweet unless you lower the sweetness level. The brown sugar boba itself is extra sweet and therefore, I would recommend lowering the sweetness level of the drink to either 75% of 50%. Also, this drink has no caffeine. Other drinks - The Strawberry Milk Tea was just okay. It was not the most flavorful drink. I also tried making my own Oreo milk tea by ordering the Teapresso High Mountain milk tea and adding Oreo topping and boba. It was good, but it might be better/cheaper to order the Oreo milk tea as is. The only drink I really did not like was the strawberry smoothie. It tasted very artificial and I was pretty disappointed. Toppings - Boba and most toppings are $.75, but crystal boba and brown sugar boba are $1, and snow cream is $1.50. Overall, Rare Tea is an excellent boba shop that has graced the South Natomas area. They share store space with Satori Sushi (same owner), but have their own counter. You can also dine at Satori and order the milk tea, which will be brought to your table. The shop is clean, but there is no where to sit with a table if you are only getting boba. The staff is polite and accurate with orders.
We have had Raretea maybe 5x or so at DOCO. Now we get one in Natomas! Good drinks. Not the best but better than many currently in our area. They share the place that is new too, Satori Sushi. I didn't get a drink this time but the other 2 did and liked it just the same as at DOCO. Nice to have a better boba spot added to Natomas that has less than stellar boba. Deluna and Tea 18 trump the rest here.
WHY WE WENT HERE: - 1st time we tried via DoorDash - 2nd time we tried in person as a boba stop on the way home THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located in an unsuspecting neighborhood plaza, can be easily overlooked - once in the plaza, you realize that RareTea is located inside Satori Sushi and Teriyaki Grill THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - RareTea is on the left side and Satori Sushi and Teriyaki Grill is on the right side - clean - modern THE MENU: - specialties - teapresso brews - milk teas - fruit teas - uji matcha - snow cream series - smoothies - not necessarily on the menu, there are some pastries/snacks showcased in the glass case adjacent to the cash register WHAT WE ORDERED: - Okinawa milk tea with brown sugar boba - mango smoothie - kiwi fruit tea with aiyu jelly - NOTE: like a lot of boba spots now, you have the option to change your ice level + sweetness level THE TASTE: - all of the drinks we've had have been good; refreshing and sweet CUSTOMER SERVICE: - warm and welcoming - swift
Doordash review - 20% off on your first order (up to $5 off) I received my order in less than 30 minutes, which is fast. My default drink is the mango slush with lychee jello - it has the perfect amount of sweetness and the lychee made it even more refreshing Homemade taro with milk - there's actual pieces of taro in it so if you're a fan of that, you'll have to try it. Top it off with boba and bam, it's a winner.
I've loved RareTea ever since I was first introduced to it from a Yelp Elite event at the DOCO location! I was going there for awhile until I realized this way more convenient Natomas one exists! There is ample free parking and it shares a space with the cutest sushi restaurant. Now I've been coming here almost every week because it's so easy to haha. Taro Milk Tea with Boba is always on point and will always be my number one favorite. 2nd favorite so far is the Caramalized Brown Sugar Boba. I got it with oat milk since dairy isn't my friend and it tasted just fine with it. RareTea hands down makes the best boba balls, the sweetness and chewiness are consistently perfect. What I think would compliment the boba drinks would be that I wish they sold egg puffs! They have a rewards program if you type your phone number in at the cashier. 1 point = $1 and at 50 points you get $5 off.
The first thing I notice about RareTea is that it's located in a nice new building with plenty of parking. The interior looks new, was spotless, and had plenty of seating. The staff offered me some suggestions and I decided on a brown sugar milk tea with boba. The flavor was new for me and I really enjoyed it. My drink had drizzles of liquid brown sugar running down the inside and smooth creamy consistency. It tasted like black tea, milk, and of course brown sugar. It was a great combo! The boba was on the chewy side but had a good flavor. There were some complimentary Halloween donuts for customers when I arrived. There was one decorated like a cauldron which was a nice treat. Overall, my visit was a good experience.
The Thai milk tea was great tasting. The boba had a good boba texture. The cups are nice; heavy duty!.. you can take them home and use them again. They were super fast. I ordered and had my drink in hand in less than 5 minutes. They share the space with a sushi restaurant. Must try next time, it smelled really appetizing!

This location has been solid since its inception. This is my go-to spot and as the Duke of this location, we'll say I frequent it often. The tea remains delicious! My go-to's remain but nothing really disappoints on this great menu! I typically order ahead and my boba is waiting for me when I arrive. Service has been good time after time. Because RarTea shares this spot for Satori, the major of the crowd inside are patrons of sushi. The vibes inside are generally chill. The insides are well maintained and it's not a bad spot to get a meal (with your boba of course!) In conclusion, get to RareTea and enjoy some delicious boba! read more

Over the pandemic I had to get my boba fix. But every time I ordered from a Raretea I would get the wrong orders/spilled drinks/drinks didn't taste good. Well I randomly wanted to check out a sushi restaurant and noticed this Raretea sharing the location. It has been my favorite Raretea to get my boba from. The drinks are exactly what I'm looking for. My favorites to get are the rose tea (refreshing floral flavor) or carmalized brown sugar boba fresh milk (sweet milky flavor with chewy boba). But I would totally try the other flavors. Another nice thing is that while you eat at the restaurant you can order boba with your meal. read more

It's so cool how this boba shop is connected to the Satori sushi restaurant so you can have both sushi and boba, two of my favorite things! The service here was great and the drinks were made in a timely matter. They were able to make all of our drinks at the same time! The inside is clean and aesthetically pleasing! read more

I was so excited to try this new boba place out, which is located right next to my optometrist. It's decorated really nice and the staff were friendly. The drink, however, was disgusting. It was the worst boba drink I've ever had. I'm hoping that's because it's new. I will maybe give it another shot in a few months. read more

We had to stop in at this new location. It's in a small shopping center right near the freeway. So there is tons of parking. It is absolutely beautiful inside. They're going to be sharing this space with a sushi place, so they have lots of seating. It's very clean inside. The employees were very nice and helpful with drink recommendations. Our drinks came out really fast and my kids loved them. We will definitely be coming back, probably way to often:) read more

This is the second RareTea to open in Sacramento, after the first location on K St in downtown. Their grand opening was on Aug 7, 2021. It is located in the corner of Gateway Plaza in between pizza & Plus and Golden 1 bank. They took over the location where Sushi King used to be. When you first walk in, you can tell they did a great job of renovating the interior. To the left is RareTea and to the right is Satori Sushi. That's right - a boba shop and a sushi restaurant sharing the same space. I only wanted boba during my visit, so I haven't eaten at Satori yet. The interior is actually quite spacious with tons of seating. I ordered the Mango Milk Tea ($5) and my brother ordered the Signature Matcha Latte ($5.50). My Mango Milk Tea had a good balance of mango flavor; it was the right amount of sweet. My brother ordered the Matcha Latte with 50% sweetness and even for him, that was a tad too sweet. Overall, the place looks amazing and the staff is friendly. We'll be back for sure. read more

We were really happy with our drinks from Rare Tea. The freshness of the fruit ingredients and the quality of the boba were wonderful! A refreshing drink you must try is the Kiwi Fruit Tea with Aiyu Jelly. It's green tea loaded with real muddled kiwi and huge chunks of lemon jelly--like a dessert and drink all in one! My husband loved his passion fruit smoothie with ice cream added. He shook his cup vigorously before piercing with the straw and said it was like eating a passion fruit milkshake. I look forward to coming back and trying all the other drinks they offer. read more
