    Tiger Sugar is one of the many bubble tea spots in the Midland and Finch plaza. I found it to be more premium compared to the other places I've been to in the plaza. 1 large drink was almost $10. I ordered the brown sugar boba milk with cream mouse. I love the flavour that the cream mousse added to the bubble tea. Not somewhere I'd go often due to the price but the quality and taste was really good!

    The intense taste of Black Sugar and the smoothness of Fresh Milk = A match in heaven! As someone that orders bbt with no sugar, it is a intriguing experience as Tiger Suger Signature drink won't let you customize. But surprisingly I enjoyed my drink a lot. Boba was perfect with nice chewiness. The herbal note adds another level to the flavour. I went around 1 pm so there was no line and service was polite and helpful. Price is steep. This is probably the only reason I won't be having one as often as I like.

    Located across the GTA This bubble tea shop is famous for their brown sugar tapioca and is our GO TO spot when we crave some! We love to order from their brown sugar boba series, and our favourite is the brown sugar boba milk with cream foam (cold). Their drinks come with brown sugar drizzle on the sides with the cream foam on top, and it is recommended to shake the drink before drinking it. The milk compliments the brown sugar so well, balancing out the sweetness and making the drink a great combo paired with cream foam. Typically we aren't huge fans of cream foam, but Tiger Sugar is an exception. We wish they had more than one size as we sometimes just want some more . Usually with milk teas we ask for less sugar but regular sugar level from here is preferred by us. We also tried their Golden Black Oolong Tea with brown sugar boba. This drink had an option of regular size or large, and we definitely ordered large! We found the drink to be quite refreshing and a great alternative if you aren't feeling a milky drink. 8/10

    I am not a tea drinker so I was a little skeptical when a friend suggested we go to Tiger Sugar. She knows my tastes and assured me that they also have coffee. I left the ordering up to her. First of all, this is a tiny little shop, similar to many in the plaza. They have a small counter in the front window, with a few stools but it's mostly takeout. The decor is simple, modern, and tasteful. She ordered for both of us - tea for her and coffee for me. They looked the same, except for the label affixed to the side. They actually looked very attractive and picture worthy and customers are encouraged to take pictures. I shot a few. This was a tasty drink that I really enjoyed. The tapioca pearls and coffee(?) jelly added another dimension to it. That's not usually my thing but this was good. I would order this again! Of course, my trusty mascot, Rajah the tiger, and his friend, May the bunny, were in heaven. This store was named in his honour!

    Visited twice. Once when it was busy and once when no one was in line. not worth it tbh because there's a fixed ice level where they literally fill half the cup with ice ~$7 for drink.

    Tiger sugar is near the entrance of the plaza. When you turn in, it's to your left. Parking is limited even during covid times, so be cautious that you may be circling for parking when the world goes back to normal. It's quite new and the staff are very nice. They are trying to make it the best experience for you and smoothing out business speed bumps as a new bbt shop in town. They specialize in brown sugar drinks... err.. black sugar drinks as they call it. The tapioca balls are soft. I had their cafe latte with black sugar and tapioca. Very flavourful and strong coffee taste/ not so much the sugar. The brown sugar tapioca latte isn't bad either. It's sweet so it will satisfy yourself sugar craving. However it's missing the signature Taiwanese brown sugar flavour that you are looking for. Overall, I wouldn't mind coming here again to try another item on their menu.

    March 9, 2021 - Definitely worth 5 stars! My friend and I like to walk around the plazas by Midland and Finch. There are many BBT shops, and restaurants to choose from. After our walk we ordered BBT. Normally, I always stick to a few BBT shops that I always go too, But this time we said to try something new. One of my favourite drinks to get is Brown Sugar BBT. I've had brown sugar BBT from a few other places so I know what it should taste like. My friend ordered Japanese Mochi Tea Latte with Cream Mousse ( Oolong ) + no sugar 5/5 I ordered Black Sugar Boba & Pearl Milk w/ Cream Mousse 5/5 My friend said "it was the best BBT she has ever had in a long time!". We both enjoyed the mochi, it was yummy and chewy. Definitely will go back!

    I know, there's way too many bubble tea shops in this plaza and you don't know where to get your brown sugar milk drink right?? I'm here to help you out! I tried two drinks and here's the verdict: the drinks are good and satisfies the craving BUT not the best I've had so I don't see myself coming back anytime soon. Brown Sugar Boba Milk - it's good but nothing special. For reference, it's milkier and less sweet than Xing Fu Tang. Black Tea Latte Boba w/ Cream Mousse - I like this better than the brown sugar boba milk. Got this for the black tea so it's not just milk and sugar. It came with hot black tea at the bottom and cream mousse at the top. There was little brown sugar around the inside of the cup as well. I got it with regular ice and sugar but it wasn't as cold or sweet as other places.

    The second GTA location of Tiger Sugar opened up last weekend in Scarborough. Tiger Sugar is a bubble tea chain from Taiwan specializing in brown sugar bubble milk drinks. This store is located at the plaza north of Finch and Midland beside Golden Bubbles. Similar to their downtown location, the space is very small. This location even lacks the small amount of barstool seating that the downtown store has. One advantage of the Scarborough store is that it has a washroom. The same feature drinks are offered, specifically brown sugar boba milk drinks or brown sugar pearl milk drinks. The difference between these is that Boba are the larger tapioca and pearls are the smaller tapioca. My friend and I ordered the brown sugar Boba and pearl milk. The drink was prepared quickly and I received it after a few minutes. Staff remind patrons to shake their drink prior to consumption. My drink was fairly sweet. I had asked for my drink to be made without cream mousse due to my lactose sensitivity but only after I left the store and started consuming my beverage that I realized that they had made my drink with the cream mousse. Overall texture was significantly creamier relative to most milk teas. The brown sugar boba milks do not contain tea but can be ordered as a tea latte if a tea based drink is so desired. The tapioca was soft but still chewy, and sweet from the brown sugar syrup. The staff tells me that there is no option to customize sugar or ice levels. Drinks are rather pricey. My regular regular size brown sugar milk cost over $7. They take credit cards, unlike some places that only take cash or debit. I do like that this location is much closer to where I live, joining the overabundant selection of other bubble tea places in the Finch Midland area.

    TIGER SUGAR brown sugar boba milk with cream mousse . 5/5 . Brown sugar is poured around the inside of the cup to resemble tiger stripes, which inspired the name Tiger Sugar They are hands down the best brown sugar boba in town! The brown sugar boba at the bottom of the cup is very hot, which helps to maintain the softness and chewiness! They recommend to shake the drink 15 times to mix the brown sugar and milk. Personally, I like to wait a bit before shaking to keep the boba as soft as possible before drinking because once the boba is mixed with ice, it loses part of its softness. . The Scarborough location didn't have a line in the evening, but I heard it can get busy sometimes. 3 customers inside at a time. . $6.50

    Another bubble tea spot to join the rest in this plaza. I saw it on Instagram so I decided to try. We got the black sugar boba milk with cream mousse. Boba series is your regular size tapioca and the pearl is a smaller size. Cream mousse has whipped cream so it lends to a creamier taste. First off it's beautiful. The staff recommended we shake it well before drinking so we did. I would say this drink is sweet, creamy and caramel-y. I didn't taste much tea flavour but I loved it nonetheless. I see it more as a dessert drink than a tea beverage, but it's damn good. The tapioca was also incredible, so softtttt and chewy. On the pricy side as it comes to $7 for the one size which is quite small. You also can't adjust sugar and ice which I found weird. It takes a while to make it. It was busy so we waited about 10 min for ours.

    Wow! I'm a huge bubble tea addict but I've never tried bubble tea like this before. I've tried both the brown sugar pearl milk and brown sugar boba milk (both with creme mousse) but the pearl milk has been my favourite. The difference between the pearl milk and the boba milk is just the size of the tapioca (the pearls are the size of sago vs the boba is the typical tapioca size). Usually I'm not a fan of small tapioca/sago but in this drink it's just tastes better. While the brown sugar pearl milk might look like any other brown sugar milk drink -- IT IS DIFFERENT! The drink has a really unique taste, similar to a coffee crisp chocolate. Plus the cream mousse on top is super rich and makes the drink taste SO GOOD. It's definitely more on the expensive side (~$7) and the service is super slow, but it's 100% worth it if you're a true bubble tea drinker lol My only complaint is that you can't adjust the ice or sugar level, and they tend to be pretty heavy on the ice... but regardless I'll still be coming back again ASAP!

    Came here for the "brown sugar" that most bubble tea places now serve. This place has one with normal size tapioca and one with smaller ones. Nothing too special, but will try our other flavours next time!

    The black sugar milk tea is one of the best I've had. They're on the pricey side so it's an occasional treat.

    Chi Cha San Chen ( 吃茶三千 ) is a world renowned bubble tea shop…read more From California to New York to Taipei to Toronto, this shop's unique tea has proven itself to be top notch in the culinary world. Moreover they have been winning international taste awards for their outstanding products. I tried a milk based tea made with their famous the Dong Ding Oolong tea (凍頂烏龍). Dong-Ding Oolong Tea with Fresh milk was smooth tasting, sweet and creamy. Delicious. Whereas the Formosa Fruit Tea (寶島經典水果茶) was a black tea base packed with teeny pineapple bits, a bit of passion fruit seeds, paper thin slices of apples and citrus. Their offerings are plentiful, with both classic or seasonal teas on their menu. Worth a visit.

    Love Chisan San Chen and their other locations, so popping in here, I knew my drink would be…read moredelicious as well. But what blew me away was this locations interior. Immediately when I walked in I felt like I was in a cave. It was beautiful and cozy - just the way I like it. Service is always on point here, and their tea quality is always high. They steep their teas to order and with precision. Got their seasonal fruity tea and it was delicious. I usually opt for their signature milk tea but it was nice to switch it up to something refreshing and fruity once in a while. Check this location out, as it has a more magical touch than the others.
