I heard a lot about Tea By Do from Chinese people online, so I was really surprised to see they had opened a store front in Flushing. It is a tiny store, hardly big enough to fit the line of patrons placing and waiting for orders. They also have limited menu items, though I wasn't sure if that was true for all locations or if it was that they were launching only certain drinks to begin with.
I ordered a cold jasmine milk tea without any toppings as I was trying to have just a little sweet something for dessert. It came in a hot cup, which alarmed me, but it indeed was cold. I think maybe because I had opted for the "no ice" options and they didn't want it to looked like the drink amount was small? The packaging was very cute. The tea was really nice and fragrant. I got 30% sugar and it was plenty sweet. I do love taro, so I think next time I pass, I will try the taro bubbles. read more
