I can't believe Vlogmas is almost over 😭 Sad, but also relieved because I need a break 😅 Please let me know if you've been enjoying it so far!! Appreciate you all for watching 💖
Hey Meimei! Just wondering, do you have Cha Time or Share Tea where you are? Bc I really love the drinks there! From Share Tea I would recommend the taro milk tea, no ice, mini boba and normal boba!
PLEASE compare Pekoe to Tisane. They’re RIVALS because the couple who owned pekoe broke up and the husband started Tisane 🤭. I need to know which spot you like better because I trust your taste tests girl 😩
@@chennyjen6976 ahaha I wrote my thesis on San Jose boba culture and the people I interviewed knew wayyyy too much about boba shop owners’ *personal* business 🤣
I personally like Pekoe better ! Its not that sweet compared to tisane even when I asked for 25% sweetness it still taste like diabetes in a cup at Tisane .
this is actually so interesting! I have went to both and at first I like Pekoe better, however their drinks don't really taste the same anymore so i like tisane a lil better!
Omg Pekoe drinks literally taste like diabetes, no jokes. I’m never going back there again lol. It’s so bad. I only tried Tisane once and it also tastes very sweet. So I don’t recommend going either... My favorite boba shop is tancha in Cupertino, get the matcha with tiramisu, 50%sweetness.
Wow! Not sure how you popped up on my feed but I'm glad you did. I live in SJ and am surrounded by Tea shops and only get Jasmine. I had no idea there were so many differences between the tea shops. I'm amazed that you had so much tea in such a short period of time.
Love love love this video! I love the little tidbits/clips you put in! Thanks for buying food and giving us your opinions! I’m sure a lot of people are like me - we watch these vids for you, no matter what you talk about in them! I’m living vicariously through you! Just record whatever you want and we’ll enjoy watching it!
Some of my faves for the next time you’re in South Bay!! - tiger milk (pop up inside temple bar) - sweet corner - kensho social (forbidden dragon is my fave) - happy lemon - tastea - shincha tea Hope you get a chance to try hehe 💕
Tisane is a competitor to pekoe? Ooh didn’t know that - I assumed it was owned by the same owner cuz the drinks all sound/look the same! Tisane always seems so dead compared to pekoe
@@Pandoraaaa408 hahaha it’s actually some family drama behind it, not my place to say on the internet, but ur right, their drinks and ambiance are pretty similar haha
lmaooo i used to work at toco tea santa clara and uh... i would not recommend going there they stole our electronic tips and wouldnt pay us to stay and actually deep clean the shop
Omg you have to try N7’s fruit teas it’s my favorite! And if you ever do a part two you have to add Tastea (get their honey boba), Tisane (the new pekoe), and Tiger Sugar!
I’m not even from anywhere NEAR San Fran but ever since I watched your first jasmine boba ranking video, girl I am HOOKED So here for all of your recent uploads haha Keep up the great work! 💕
AHHHH mr.sun is 10000% my favourite bbt place (I’m from Toronto) and their mango green tea (normally I swap mango tapioca for strawberry) is 10/10 in my opinion. definitely on the sweeter side and would recommend max 10% sugar if you do try !!
one of my fave places is cafe lattea, their honey toast is amazing and their boba (my fav is the Hazelnut Chocolate Milk Tea). hopefully u can try it out in the future I love ur videos a lot so it would be hella cool to see what you think of my recommended place!
You should do a 2nd episode, since there are so much more here. Living in the southbay, there are a couple of staples that I think are missing from your list.
I tried Soyful for the first time a few weeks ago, and my brother also got the creamy milk tea, and he said it reminded him of the vanilla ice cream from Mexico! Its a little different from the the typical "french vanilla" you see here
I cannot believe how many boba places are there! I'm here in SW Missouri and lucky my town has one! Haha. Thanks for giving me the desire to try new flavors there, too!
Amazing video as always! You should try out TeaTop (really close to the TP Tea location), Music Tunnel KTV Cafe, Yifang Taiwan Fruit Tea cafe, pho hoa hazen tea cafe, and happy lemon (if you havent yet tried it out)! Cant wait to see more reviews from the South Bay!!!
Pekoe is my favorite! But also love Boba Guys. But I feel like you should’ve tried a milk tea to make it more comparable. But I get it... this is what they suggested. I usually make up my own combo when I go because I don’t like sugary teas and my husband gets the foxy brown.
i literally live in evergreen in san jose it's so cool to see you try our boba shops!!! and at pekoe i love gold mine or foxy brown the most, you have to try them!
Yeah TeaLyfe is hella expensive cuz a) it’s a small business run by a family (the sweetest Mexican and Vietnamese couple born and raised in SJ) b) they use all organic ingredients and c) they really wanted to provide a nice space for kids and families to hang out and study pre-COVID. They have such gorgeous aesthetic seating and I miss studying there so bad 🥺💕
It's crazy because even during the P....MIC Pekoe is still so packed. I went there once after going to like 3 other Boba shops that ended up being so packed and there was a wholeeeee line that extended to the store next to it. Please try Kay's Tea House, it's fairly new and in my opinion pretty good!
Yuuuup is def pandan in the mungbean milk tea. It's kinda like a southeast asian dessert in a drink, really hits the spot especially since no one really does similar.
Please please go try tenren cupertino (only vouching cupertino location!) They make the BEST boba. My go-to drink is the mango green tea with 75% sweetness + boba
Woof's Bar in Santa Clara (down the street from the university) and Sincere Tea in SJ Japan Town are both excellent! Definitely recommend giving them both a try!
Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet but you could have hit 7leaves and pekoe back to back. The latter is across the street on berryessa. Didn't have to go all the way to white rd 😅. Then down the street to tastea or the opposite way to tocotea. So many boba spots within a mile radius there (Teaspoon, Sharetea, and Gong cha down lundy) Pretty in Pink at Pekoe is the go to
Stop, now I want to try that waffle🤤 I love the aesthetic on the 2nd drink. The nitro drink seems really good and good. Definitely want to try that one. Love watching these 😄👍🏻
I’m new to your channel and have been binge watching for two days I love your videos also I like your little food reviews in between boba drinks it gives me more ideas on what snacks to try
I live in dual and there is this place called boba and there are so many weird drinks and my fav is the Oreo milkshake boba and u can pick ur own boba flavour and I love ittt
I can't believe Vlogmas is almost over 😭 Sad, but also relieved because I need a break 😅 Please let me know if you've been enjoying it so far!! Appreciate you all for watching 💖
Santa works hard but meimei works harder!
Have you tried boba from its boba time?
it went by so quick..
Hey Meimei! Just wondering, do you have Cha Time or Share Tea where you are? Bc I really love the drinks there! From Share Tea I would recommend the taro milk tea, no ice, mini boba and normal boba!
Hi meimei! Could you try sweet moment? :3
the way she edits and talks in her videos makes u want to come back for more and more videos!! 🥺❤️✨
PLEASE compare Pekoe to Tisane. They’re RIVALS because the couple who owned pekoe broke up and the husband started Tisane 🤭. I need to know which spot you like better because I trust your taste tests girl 😩
THATS SOME REAL TEA RIGHT THERE

🥳

YESSIR

I jumped here as quick as I could-
Oh and yes continue adding the extra foods :)
Appreciate you!!! 💖💖💖

Tiger milk is the best!!
Happy lem,on tasted so bad to me
Isn’t sweet corner in Vietnam town?
I have never managed to get a good drink at Tiger Milk. What am I doing wrong?
you know she's an asian when she doesn't believe any of the drinks get higher than an 8.5 LOL
So true!! Hahaha
I just notice that. Like u can tell that she’ll really enjoy something but then rate it lower than her reaction 🥲
You should try alameda because they have good boba there, btw love the content!!😁
I hope to do a series in East Bay too!
@@feedmeimei sounds good!!👌
And Berkeley!
@@feedmeimei please do!!!
7 Leaves mung bean drink is my all-time favorite - so glad you had it!
A day full of boba tea. That's a dream come true! 😱
try
- tisane!!! pekoe’s number 1 competitor!
- tastea
-pekoe: manly melons or pretty in pink
- toco tea
- breaktime tea
Tisane is a competitor to pekoe? Ooh didn’t know that - I assumed it was owned by the same owner cuz the drinks all sound/look the same! Tisane always seems so dead compared to pekoe
@@Pandoraaaa408 hahaha it’s actually some family drama behind it, not my place to say on the internet, but ur right, their drinks and ambiance are pretty similar haha

THAI THEA WHITIES FROM PEKOE IS SOOOO GOOD! and so is the pretty in pink
I’m not even from anywhere NEAR San Fran but ever since I watched your first jasmine boba ranking video, girl I am HOOKED
So here for all of your recent uploads haha
Keep up the great work! 💕
i absolutely liveee for your boba videos and yes with adding the foods!!
Also, I stg, can you please drop your skin care routine 😭
The amount of adjectives used in this video is insane😂😂 love u mei mei
I was watching all ur boba vids last night and I just woke up to an entire new one!!!🤗🤗
OMG I LOVE BOBA SO MUCH... AM I THE ONLY ONE BINGING THESE VIDS, DREAMING I COULD BE DRINKING BOBA RN!!!!! Keep up the great work Meimei!!!!
“N7” means/is nitrogen, the 7th element on the periodic table 😂
I DON’T EVEN LIVE IN AMERICA BUT THESE VIDEOS ARE SO ENTERTAINING 😭👑
sweet gelato tea lounge on story!!!! tony is the bestttt!
7 Leaves is definitely #1 in my opinion
AHHHH mr.sun is 10000% my favourite bbt place (I’m from Toronto) and their mango green tea (normally I swap mango tapioca for strawberry) is 10/10 in my opinion. definitely on the sweeter side and would recommend max 10% sugar if you do try !!

Ohh yay another boba video! I loveee these!!

I tried Soyful for the first time a few weeks ago, and my brother also got the creamy milk tea, and he said it reminded him of the vanilla ice cream from Mexico! Its a little different from the the typical "french vanilla" you see here
do a taste test on this placed called “ume tea” its in cupertino. I LOVE THESE VIDEOOSSS, it always makes me crave boba even moree
That waffle looks so good 🥺
A tip for boba fans ( if you want a drink with soft tapioca pearls get a cold drink and no ice the tapioca will be softer )
My favorite is sweet gelato on king. I prefer smoothie/blended types but the boba is bombbb
High praise for the mung bean milk tea!
Yes, that is "Assam" , largest tea producing region.... ❤️ From Assam
Kawaii's mango stars are so cute!
Try Jasmine Kocha in SJ!! It’s a small store, but their chocolate milk tea and boba is so good!! And they’re super nice there too!
I tried that and it’s alright tbh have u been to a lot of boba places
TeaTop is still one of the best in the East/South Bay ngl
Yay South Bay is getting some love!!
Mung bean milk tea sounds wonderful! Don't hear it often wow!
I agree with you about that particular pekoke drink. I like the yellow mango or pomstar too.
Pekoe is always my go to when I’m in SJ!! The other newer location is better tho. Less crowded and better quality
I cannot believe how many boba places are there! I'm here in SW Missouri and lucky my town has one! Haha. Thanks for giving me the desire to try new flavors there, too!
My favorites:
TP Tea, UME, Teaspoon, Tan Cha! 💖
tp tea and mr. sun are the best
Amazing video as always! You should try out TeaTop (really close to the TP Tea location), Music Tunnel KTV Cafe, Yifang Taiwan Fruit Tea cafe, pho hoa hazen tea cafe, and happy lemon (if you havent yet tried it out)! Cant wait to see more reviews from the South Bay!!!
Yes extra food tidbits are always good! 👍👍
I LOOVEE THESE SERISES THEY ENTRETAIN ME SOOOO MUCHH
nitro singing on point!!!!!
YESS we love the little food tidbits!
Pekoe is my favorite! But also love Boba Guys. But I feel like you should’ve tried a milk tea to make it more comparable. But I get it... this is what they suggested. I usually make up my own combo when I go because I don’t like sugary teas and my husband gets the foxy brown.
Aw I was hoping you’d visit Tiger Sugar in Cupertino!
tiger sugar doesn’t have tea in it most of the time, that’s probably why
Wow that nitro milk tea sounds really good!
pretty in pink with the heart jellies from pekoe is good!
You should definitely visit Verde Tea Cafe in Fremont! Their peach milk tea with boba is my favorite!
Yay for snacks! You could do a whole series for egg waffles too!
just finished watching your sf boba series and really wanted to see one about sj omg :D
i literally live in evergreen in san jose it's so cool to see you try our boba shops!!! and at pekoe i love gold mine or foxy brown the most, you have to try them!
Ooh that jasmine tea with the mango stars.. definitely a different type of boba! It's different hehe..
Yeah TeaLyfe is hella expensive cuz a) it’s a small business run by a family (the sweetest Mexican and Vietnamese couple born and raised in SJ) b) they use all organic ingredients and c) they really wanted to provide a nice space for kids and families to hang out and study pre-COVID. They have such gorgeous aesthetic seating and I miss studying there so bad 🥺💕
Boba at Tea lyfe is pretty! But I'm more excited for the waffle you had!
You should also try the one in Gilroy and Morgan Hill they are my favorites!🤩
girl i go to tea lyfe every week lol it’s my all time favorite ELITE boba place in the bay
Mr. Sun looks like a popular spot with the lines! 3 different flavors of boba.. ahh explosion of flavor hehe..
I agree with tea luge and I absolutely love soyful and always get the creamy milk tea!
I love this series! Please do the east bay!! I live in san ramon and i would love for you to check out boba in my city and neighboring cities❤️❤️❤️
Tealyfe drinks are the ones you need to savor because it's so expensive lol.. but that pandan waffle, oh man, looks delish!! 😋❤
At pekoe, the pekoe special is sooo good. I’ve never tasted a milk tea like that at any other boba place and I’ve gone to soooo many boba places
MeiMei! at Pekoe try the Pretty and Pink drink. I think you will really like it! :)
Loving the boba videos! Just moved to the area, and now it makes me want to try all of them!
Qq noodle!!! Whoaaa that's a new topping! I love tiequanyie flavor tea!! This is a win for me!!!! I pick this one in the whole video!
you should make more videos of you eating random snacks. I just love watching people eat for some reason lol
That fresh strawberry tea sounds like the style we would get at Moge Tee in NYC
It's crazy because even during the P....MIC Pekoe is still so packed. I went there once after going to like 3 other Boba shops that ended up being so packed and there was a wholeeeee line that extended to the store next to it.
Please try Kay's Tea House, it's fairly new and in my opinion pretty good!
“Nitro blah blah blah tea blah blah blah rest of the drink” Hahahha lol 😂😂
Girl you are DEDICATED
I live & breathe boba 😂🖤
same I am obsessed with it
Think we would like the Tieguanyin milk tea too! We enjoy bitter flavors and then balanced with milk sounds good
Will definitely try TP Tea since it's not far from my work. Thanks 😊!
i enjoy the random food bits!! :)
Do more of cupertino!!!! 💕

Pretty in Pink at Pekoe is the go to
You gotta try Tan Cha in Santa Clara. Absolutely the best I have ever had. The line is always long every time we’d go get one.
Happy winter solstice!
Omg pandan waffles is so good!!!!! Thats a winner!
Stop, now I want to try that waffle🤤
I love the aesthetic on the 2nd drink.
The nitro drink seems really good and good. Definitely want to try that one. Love watching these 😄👍🏻

Yay! This is awesome I love your video and use it to decide which boba to try ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your video make me smile ☺️😁
that pandan waffle holy crap it sounds so crispy and fresh - i've only had it from Bambu
Please try teaspoon’s mango fire drink with peach popping boba and lychee jelly.... it’s uuuuuuhhhmazing!!!!!!!!!
2:03 yeah I feel you! 😁 mung bean milk tea! really want to try it.
Try woof bar in Santa Clara close to Santa Clara University. This is the best so far that we tried. Highly recommended 👍
Yessss! I have been waiting for another boba tasting video! You will upload and I will just wait and wait for another! BTW love your channel!
At the end of each episode you should mix all the drinks together, taste and rate it!!
