    Mango & Strawberry Smoothie Taro & Hokkaido Milk Slush
    Sisi T.

    Whenever I am in the Provo/Orem area I love to try and come by here for my boba fix. One of my absolute favorite spots. I always tip cash because who knows if these owners now a days really give their employees the added tip that's always asked for these days on the POS (Point Of Sale) machine. My hope is yes, but some employees when asked have told me that they indeed do not always get their tips when added to the POS machine. So as the saying goes. Cash is KING when I feel the desire to tip great service. Wish they had a Salt Lake City location. My go-to Taro Hokkaido Tea Milk slush with cheese foam and brown sugar boba is always my favorite drink here. Regular sweetness.

    Came here cuz someone said it's the best boba in Utah That's cap It's aight They have a lot of good choices but to say best boba in the state is a big reach cuz those tapioca balls weren't soft (but they weren't hard either like one spot I won't mention had em) This rating is based on the pearls and they weren't the best Were they bad? No Were they great? Ehh Overall it's a good stop if you're in Utah county but I wouldn't drive out just for boba. Maybe for the pepper pig plushies but not the bob's K bye

    Service was good, came out really fast which was great! The tapioca pearls were just not my favorite. Soggy and flavorless :( other than that caramel chocolate slush was yummy.

    I'd try this place again. They have a variety of options and are able to withhold the black tea from your drink if you don't want it. What I got: Honeydew Galaxy Tea with Mango Popping Boba - 4* it was very yummy. I really love honeydew. And I think I would've enjoyed it more if I hadn't broken my cup (completely my fault, I was trying to mix more of the syrup in the drink and thought hitting it against the table would help... Nope, it just split the cup. So I flipped the cup over, cracked open the bottom, and drank it upside down. Yay for solid plastic lids that kept my drink sealed while it was being consumed upside down!) You do have to shake your drink to mix it up so it doesn't stay all pretty the whole time you're enjoying it.

    The service was fast and quick even though there was one person there. The shop was adorable and I was almost tempted into buying the boba plushies on the counter. The drinks were my favorite part, the taro milk tea and was sweet and had a toasty flavor to it. I also tried the Hokkaido matcha latte for the first time and it tasted like butter with a matcha flavor to it and it was delicious! Highly recommend this place if you're looking for something cool yet sweet to drink.

    I really love Tea Mate! I think this is my favorite Boba place in Orem. My favorite is the Taro and Haikkado milk slush. The galaxy teas are also very yummy! The restaurant is pretty small, so if there are more than a couple groups it can get very crowded but that obviously isn't a problem if you take it to go. Service is good! Everyone has been friendly when I've visited.

    Ok boba tea, not so much their cheese tea
    Mary P.

    Boba is good here but not over the top. I wasn't a fan of their cheese tea which I normally love. I found their cheese tea topping was too watery and tasted more like adding half and half on top. Beyond the cheese tea issue most things are good here and service is ok.

    Best boba tea I've had recently! I came just after lunch and got the Galaxy Honeydew with regular boba. They recommend you mix it before you stick your straw in. So, just make sure you take a picture of it before you mix it up and separate all the cool colors. Taste was super fresh. Not overly sweet at all and the boba was soft and chewy. The people working there are super friendly and they made the drink super fast. Nice interior too if you want to hang out inside. There was also some seating outside. This is probably my favorite place so far since being here. There's a lot of flavors there and I'll be back to try the others. I'm a huge fan of Taro/Coconut boba tea/smoothies. That will be next.

    This spot is a little hidden gem. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful in guiding me through their menu. The drink itself was delicious and one of the best Boba drinks I've ever had. Do yourself a favor and try this place.

    If you are looking for the most authentic boba and teas, you need to stop at Tea Mate. Tea and smoothies made just like you'd find in Asia. They use some delicious milk, and quality ingredients in all their drinks. Smoothies do not use fresh fruit. So just a heads up, it is not like a Roxberry for a healthy drink after a workout. You are able to drop the sugar level on most selections though. Their Thai Tea was the absolute best ratio between tea and milk.

    This new place is super clean, has such a friendly owner and great boba! I ordered the brown sugar icy milk while my friend ordered the Taro and Hokkaido milk slush. We both agreed that the Taro and Hokkaido milk slush was way better.Although it was a slush, it was very creamy and did not have any ice bits in it! It also smelled very fresh. Nonetheless, the brown sugar icy milk is a must have! Although I thought this would be another generic boba place, I actually really liked how they managed to come up with special slush flavors, rather than the typical ones you get at every boba store. Update: after coming here a few times, I feel like their boba flavour seems to be watered down a little. It does not taste as good as it was when it first opened.

    Mango & Strawberry Smoothie with brown sugar boba
    Melissa F.

    Was shopping in the area and had a craving for boba so I decided to stop here! I got the Mango & Strawberry smoothie with the brown sugar boba. The boba itself is pretty good. It's perfectly cooked but the flavor is pretty subtle. I personally like my tapioca pearls to be a little more sugary but it was still pretty good. The Mango & Strawberry smoothie part was alright. Nothing really stood out about it. I wish they had fresh strawberries & mangos but they just used ice, what I'm assuming was fructose, and flavored syrups. I couldn't really taste the strawberry, just the artificial mango & sweetener. It could be that I just got the wrong thing on the menu. I think I'll come back another time and get something else. The staff was friendly, fast, and efficient. Overall good place. Definitely better than all of the other boba shops in the area.

    Left to right: mango passion fruit boba with cheese foam, purple yam special, and dirty brown sugar.

    You know what I keep thinking about? Boba. Specifically the boba from here, because it's dang good. Went with my sister on a whim to try out their milk teas while she was in town and I'm so happy I did. I got the purple yam special with boba and pudding, my sister brown sugar dirty milk tea with boba, and my husband mango passion fruit with boba and a cheese foam. To be honest, didn't know what to expect from the pudding and cheese foam but they ended up being my favorite part of our drinks! Now the purple yam won everyone over, it was the favorite. The purple yam tastes identical to taro (a sweet, nutty flavor) and the vanilla pudding/custard that you get sips of plus the boba added a fun textural element to the drink I LOVED. Next up was the mango passion fruit, with the cheese foam being like a cheesecake mousse that added a sweet tang to the tropical fruit. Lastly was the brown sugar, which had a strong tea flavor we aren't used to but I honestly would order it again. It was nice and creamy with hints of caramel from the brown sugar. Still delish even if you aren't a black tea fan. Over all with the fast and friendly service paired with fair prices, I say Boba Time is doing an awesome job giving the Utah Valley some fun and authentic boba drinks! As soon as my bank account let's me I'll be back.

    Ask the Community - Tea Mate

    What would you suggest for someone who's never had boba but would like to try?

    I will say taro milk tea or the flavored milk slush and you can add boba to the slush as well

    Is the galaxy tea made with herbal tea? I see the fruity flavors, but I have no idea what the base of the drink is.

    Normally it's a green tea base but you can switch it to an herbal tea per request!

    Are there dairy free milk options (almond milk, oat milk, etc)?

    Yes. We use non dairy creamer on all our drinks except sweet milk and Icy milk selections.
