Jungle Tea - S San Diego

Really cool spot. Well decorated for Lunar New Year! We got two drinks, Milk Tea with Boba and Kumquat and Mango Jelly. The Milk Tea flavor tasted more like tea if that makes sense. So if you like the strong tea flavor, this place is for you. The Kumquat was refreshing. Service is extremely friendly here.

So far I have not come across a disappointing bubble tea chain in San Diego. This is another fantastic bubble tea outlet.

I’ve always heard about this place but I’ve never got to try it until now. As a local, it’s definitely a hidden gem and family owned. It’s located in a small plaza. It’s a small store but the decor is really cute and festive. Service from the workers were great. I was given recommendations and they all were very friendly. There is a tv that displays all the drinks since the menu doesn’t have description. I came with a friend and the drinks that we got was the Tiger Series. I had the Crème Brûlée Purple Tiger which was Taro flavored and it was very delicious. My friend ordered the Crème Brûlée Golden Tiger which was Banana milk flavored with Crystal Boba. I definitely recommend people to check this spot out.

This boba shop is located in a smaller plaza away from the main road, so you'd likely miss it if you weren't searching for it. I saw all the good reviews and became curious! First, I love the decor inside. They were decked out for the holidays, and it felt so festive and cute. The cashier was patient in answering all my questions. I think it would be helpful if they put a description of the creatively named drinks up so that I don't have to bother them haha. I ordered the jungle milk at 75% sugar. It is mung bean and pandan. It has a creamy, slightly grainy taste. I would get 50% sugar or less next time. Unfortunately they were not able to blend it with ice. I imagine it would be tasty in a smoothie form too!My husband ordered the ice cream milk tea but expected it to be more icy. It was more like melted ice cream milk tea. He still liked it but said he would order it with less sugar as well. So in general, I would say the drinks are on the sweeter side! Parking is easy here, so I think we'll definitely be back!

Amazing place to check out in Mira Mesa! Very clean and the service is amazing. My husband got the Mango smoothie which was very good and not too sweet, and I got the Thai Milk Tea with boba which is refreshing after eating out. Definitely check it out. Also looks very local and new. Perfect to support local businesses!
