Over the years, I became accustomed to what I call "California sweet" - barely, barely sweet. My first couple of visits to Leafly were a learning experiences - everything was just way too sweet. Even "light sweet" was too sweet. It's quite understandable, though, southerners basically bathes in sweet tea. I've since learned to ask for "barely sweet". I visit Leafly when I go to the UPS store to make my Amazon returns. Let's just say I visit Leafly often. Today I ordered my usual large Jasmine milk tea, barely sweet, light ice. I have very little doubt something else from Amazon won't fit, won't work or won't meet my expectations. I'm sure I'll be back soon.

They have lots of options and the boba tea is just the way we like it not overly sweet like we have ran into at other places.

The prices are good and we'd highly recommend.

I've been following ShakeiT Boba since their inception as a tiny food trailer. The family and…read morestaff are so so nice and I'm incredibly happy to see them enjoying this level of deserved success in their new brick and mortar! I've been missing their yummy products for a while; before they went brick and mortar, I was only ever able to catch them on Thursdays off University Drive, and they stopped doing that a few months prior to launching their full store. The full store is way out in Madison, which is pretty far out of the way for me, so it's been a long time since I last had any of their drinks. Luckily, I was passing through Madison about a week or two ago and had the time to stop in to see their new spot. It's really not far at all from where they'd park the trailer during their days in Madison; find it in the same shopping center as 2nd and Charles. Ample parking is available. Inside, you'll find a very adorably decorated, cozy, instagrammable boba shop. They have a loooot of drink choices (milk teas, fruit teas, coffees, etc), lots of types of boba, and their newest addition: soft serve ice cream! The ice cream comes in a lot of flavors that are pretty unique to this area: taro, Thai tea, mango, green tea, etc. Exact flavors vary from day to day but they have a small freezer with cups full you can also order. They also have a selection of fun snacks like Calbee chips, spicy rice crackers, and Pocky. I feel lucky we have two fabulous dedicated boba spots in the Huntsville area. ShakeiT Boba is my preferred spot if you want a more dessert or coffee-centric boba drink. Their Thai milk tea and their S'mores milk tea are delightful treats, although my most common order is a brown sugar or Thai coffee with coffee jelly. So so good and a great caffeine/happiness/energy boost! Their cups are gorgeous and the decorations and merch are so fun. I've noticed lots of familiar staff faces over the years too. I think it's a good sign that they can retain employees. And of course the family who owns the place is also often working hard behind the counter. :) Give this lovely business a try when you get the chance!

I usually drop by here because it's a nice treat as you're walking around University Pickers. I've…read morebeen here twice and while customer service is good, I'm not that big of a fan of how much you have to pay for the drink and the content of ice that goes into your drink. I paid $8.51 (before tip) for a large Buko Pandan, and for the price point expected a lot more to drink. Most of the coconut jellies and tapioca pearls fell to the bottom of the drink underneath the ice. In addition, I'm not sure if there's just a lot of Pandan dye that was used but the interior of my mouth was pretty green after finishing the drink. If there's a way to get less ice, I'd prefer that.

It was actually pretty good. I forgot to ask for no ice, so I picked it out once I got back to the car. Smooth sweet taste, not overwhelming with sugar. Great taro flavor. The tapioca pearls were pretty fantastic: soft, squishy, and easily chewable - possibly the best texture and flavor of bubbles I've had in awhile. I'll reserve the fifth star for if this shop ever adds red bean paste, black rice, milk caps, etc - something unique to push this store's bubble tea offerings above the average.

And I highly recommend them always), a chardonnary, lemongrass chicken, and chicken fried rice to go for the Hubs. First off, they now serve Sutter home wine in airplane plastic bottles. YUCK. Even their wine previously, which was poured from a bottle, was nargial but it was better than this, which was awful! Again the rolls were delish, as always! Thanks for that! The peanut dipping sauce was delicious also! So there's that. On to the main, the lemongrass chicken. It should have been called sauteed bell pepper and onions with white rice. The chicken was finely chopped for the most part and I left hungry. All this was 40.00 with a tip and again it was not the standard Viet Huong used to have with hearty meals that constantly made a nice leftover lunch for me. They have gotten stingy on their protein at least in the lemongrass. I noticed it last time I came here and chocked it up to being an off night. Well it's apparantly the new norn. This is one of mybdwarrst friend/Sorority Sister's favorite places to eat as she typically gets their Pho. I'll go back if I get to enjoy her company, I just don't plan to visit solo again. It's too expensive to get awful "wine" and skimpy proteins. The last next to me was another soko diner and complained about her (I think) vegan or vegetarian meal she called in advance about and then showed up and it wasn't available per her request. There was no manager working the floor and I didn't complain, and likely that's why I didn't see a manager. I do hope your experience at this long-standing locallwd owned and opened by a high school classmate is much better than my last two visits were.
