Went at around 9.15pm and they were out of pearls! :( Wasn’t really expecting pearls in a bubble tea shop to be out so early, but I sucked it up (ha) and got the konjac jelly instead, which is yummy too - quite sweet on its own so I would keep that in mind in the future when picking the sugar levels of the drink.
Being a big fan of vanilla, I had to try the vanilla milk tea. It tasted like the typical milk tea but with a subtle essence of vanilla. I do wish that the vanilla taste could be slightly stronger but the light vanilla accent of the drink was a great touch as well. I got it at 25% sugar level, which just nice for me because the konjac jellies were quite sweet too.
Green tea with real lemon freshly squeezed on the spot! Asked for 25% sugar level and it was so sour!
0% sugar and less ice! Its been quite some time since i ordered the matcha latte at koi (or any bbtea shop for that matter) because well, they don't really do their matcha latte very well. I think so far, the bbtea places that do a surprisingly good matcha drink would be jenjudan.
Anyway, i don't really know why but they don't allow you to have konjac jelly as a topping option for the matcha latte. If i'm not wrong, only the golden bubble is allowed. I think it has something to do with the gradient of the latte? I'll ask again next time 😅
Bitter for those who don't like dark chocolate but for me, it was shiok. I had Lindt's 99% dark chocolate and this reminded me of it.
This time I decided to go for 25 percent sugar for my hazelnut milk tea and what I can say is that it definitely is one of the best drink that Koi has! There is just a little bit of sweetness in the drink and the aiyu jelly really complements it very well. I think that I am addicted to this drink already. You should definitely try this once instead of their original milk tea, recommended!!
