If you thought one boba shop was enough - try four! Harvard Square has four different boba places. There is nothing better than catching up with friends or rewarding yourself after an exam, than with boba.
Whether I am having a great day, the weather is nice, or a not-so-great day, I always know that I can rely on getting myself a treat at the many boba options at Harvard.
Known for its wide variety of boba options, Kung Fu Tea has milk teas, fruit teas, and seasonal drinks as well! My favorite is their strawberry slush with brown sugar boba.
If you are a fan of brown sugar, rich, and creamy drinks, then Tiger Sugar is for you. I’m a fan of their iconic brown sugar boba with pearl milk and cream mousse.
Among all of my friends, Gong Cha seems to be the favorite. They have a unique milk foam series. They have amazing seasonal drinks such as their pumpkin pie milk tea
Ten One Tea House has really aromatic floral drinks such as lavender forest and rose honey tea. I usually try a different flavor each time!
There are also many events hosted by student organizations that have an assortment of boba options and there are study breaks where students can make their own boba beverage! Boba can truly bring the community together and that is shown by the many boba shop options we have and the many events that serve them. Because you can never go wrong with boba :)
Drawing can be a leisure activity or a great way to relax. A sketch book and pen often accompanied me at the park in my free moments.
