Raretea - Sacramento

This place is a great spot for boba! The boba itself was soft and had a delightful QQ texture. They use real fruit pieces that are sweet and perfectly ripe. I tried the Kyoho Grape Spring Tea, ordered with 30% sweetness and less ice, which is a rare flavor to find, and it even came with grape bits. I appreciated that they didn't over-steep the tea, so there was no burnt aftertaste. Their attention to the types of tea they serve really shows! The space is a bit tight, but overall, I'm very happy with this boba shop. It's definitely one of the best!

I ordered the Lychee Spring Tea with 50% sugar, and the sweetness was perfect for my taste. Food: 4/5.

I had a delicious brown sugar milk tea here. It's definitely a lovely tea shop. Food: 5/5.

The drinks were served without straws, which was disappointing, especially since two of them had boba. This affected the overall experience from the start. The Signature Matcha Latte with Brown Sugar Boba and the Coffee Snow Cream were both enjoyable, although I found the Signature Matcha a bit underwhelming. The biggest letdown was the Mango Green Tea; I ordered it with lychee jelly, but the tea had an unpleasant, almost chemical bitterness that made it completely undrinkable. Overall, it was quite a disappointing experience.

The taste was absolutely incredible! Everything was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. Thank you for the delightful experience!
