It's true, Boba is my love and I've found my BOBA BAE at Boba Mi Amor. They do it right here. Most people think that it's called "bubble tea" because of the boba tapioca balls, but it's not. It's actually because of the foam that "bubbles" up when the tea, syrups, and cream mix together and become airy and frothy. This place nails the foam. They also have somehow duplicated the correct texture and temperature of the tapioca balls. In Asia, and other places in the U.S with a large Asian diaspora, when you order boba tea, unlike here in El Paso, the tapioca balls are warm, slighty chewy, and has a lingering sweetness. It's supposed to stand out in texture and taste from the actual liquid it's suspended in (milk tea, Thai tea, taro milk tea, etc) even if the drink is cold, the boba is warm. I haven't had the pleasure of having authentic boba milk tea in El Paso, until I tried Boba Mi Amor's. Turns out, the owners have lived in China and travelled around Asia and have taken courses on traditional boba milk teas. They wanted to bring an artisanal experience to El Paso and like a lot of tea shops in the Asian community they're also open late from 11:30am-9pm. I tried their Thai Milk Tea with Boba and Coffee Jelly and their Jasmine Boba Milk Tea. Their Thai Milk Tea might be my favorite drink as it's perfectly sweet. The coffee jelly was a stark and sharp contrast to the soft chewiness of the boba. I don't think I would combine those 2 again as the texture was odd and too jarring. They use compostable straws and the servings are generous. The Jasmine Milk Tea was really good, usually with Jasmine tea, there's an tannin finish, but it's smoothed out with the creaminess of the half and half. The tea wasn't overly sweet and you can taste the delicate tea flavor. There's no powders or artificial flavors here. They hand steep their teas, they cook their bobas daily (which means they might run out), and their simple syrup and dairy blends are made in house. The owners are proud of their craft and wanted to bring the authentic boba house experience they found in Asia with a El Paso twist, so be on the lookout for some new flavors that celebrates that and they will have something soon that I've been craving...sea salt cheese foam!!! I'm also trying to convince them to make boba ice cream and sandos in addition to the Taiyaki that they make in house. Come check them out and #supportlocal. Prices are fair ($5+) and they decor is IG-worthy. You'll probably see me there as I get my back cracked next door (which is why I've been patiently stalking their Grand Opening).

I have been thinking about if or how I should write a review for Boba Mi Amor. It is a bit tricky. First of ALL, I love this place for so many reasons. BUT, I can also see how this place is not for everyone. I love this place is because they make their flavors using real ingredients in house, like real fruit or real taro root. This means that I get to take in fruit (wink wink) when I drink my fruity drink rather than artificial fake syrup. But this also means that their flavors are not intense as what many people are used to with those commercial syrups. This also means that their taro drink does not have that shinning purple color many are used to. Also, the price tags are also a little steep compared to most places. But well, buying real thing is never cheap, right? In most boba places, I stick to unsweetened milk tea with boba. It can be regular black milk tea, or milk tea with jasmine green tea, oolong tea, pu-er tea, or whatever the place has in house. I stay away from any syrupy or powdery drinks by all means. For Boba Mi Amor, I started with their jasmine milk tea in their soft opening. It was great, but not really "wow" honestly. Then I got to try their taro latte. That's WOW! First time ever I got to drink real taro drink outside of my house in El Paso. I am so happy about that just because it's on the menu. That being said, the natural taro taste is just not that strong, so I was slightly dissatisfied. The next time, I fixed it by asking for extra taro as a topping. Now, that's spot on!! (dancing~) Another thing I tried and fell in love with is the Matcha Mango Latte with Egg Pudding topping. The Matcha Latte and the house Mango puree were both good by themselves, but great when they came together. What really impressed me was their egg pudding. Honestly, I did not expect this to be house-made as well. I haven't check with the lovely owner ladies yet, but I am decently confident that they make their egg pudding themselves by the texture and taste... according to my almost 30-year boba drinking experience. (lol, yes, I came from the island where boba drink was invented, so....) Their egg pudding's taste is something between vanilla panna cotta and flan. Heavenly! I am going to start adding egg pudding to all my drinks in the future. I am pretty sure Boba Mi Amor is going to ruin my diet plan this winter, but well, I just need to work out more for the yumminess I guess.... read more

Very cute little place. My daughter and I went there twice. I got the same drink the lemon Matcha, and it was really good. My daughter and I asked a million questions every time we try a new place. They were very friendly and.gladly answered every one. read more

we tried this place a little bit ago, and i just have to say - what a phenomenal hidden gem here in El Paso. everything is fresh - and real - so yea, you pay more - but what you get is absolutely divine. i can't say enough praises about this cute place, from the kind lady behind the counter, to the menu, to the decor, to the combo of flavors, to the actual taste - ten stars. even down to the cute little cup. all the heart eyes. definitely stop in, you won't regret it! read more

Boba Mi Amor - two drinks on a table - Bubble Tea Near Me - El Paso, Texas

I gave off fan girl vibes when I visited this cute little boba place in Mesa. I am obsessed. The decor...the menu, chef kiss! I can't wait to try it very single drink! And can I say how adorable are these cups? And earth friendly straws, you cannot go wrong. And omg cheesefoam? This brings me to the days of 85C bakery in Glendale. The only thing that I would hope improve since they just opened is the strength of their jasmine tea because with my cheesefoam obsession, the cream overpowered the tea and I can barely taste the fragrance of the jasmine tea. But overall fun and super positive experience! Now go get your cheesefoam read more

Went to try out this boba place that we spotted before heading to dinner. It is a small cute place and what caught my attention that they have the avocado smooth. However, when I ordered it, they told me it was seasonal. Therefore, I give this place a 4.5 stars. We ended up getting the classic milk tea, the jasmine tea, and the pinky milk( which was recommended for kids) the pinky milk has a bubblegum taste to it. Overall I can say that the classic milk tea and jasmine tea was delicious. You can never go wrong with the classic but I would say that not all places make it good, which is why I say Boba Mi Amor was delicious, it had this taste taste that reminded me of a milky drink I use to drink as a child, just can't pin point the right drink but I knew I loved it lol read more

Great place to get boba! There's a reason why this place has won awards for its boba. You should definitely try it!

This place is a must try. We tried the tea don't remember the exact name but try them out they are all pretty good and they explain everything to a t. I will definitely be going back for sure read more

I walked in not knowing excited to see the place i had been following for a while. The owner was taking our order and she had a VERY RUDE demeanor from the start. She did not help me at all with the menu because some of the instagram drinks are not in the menu so i was confused and everytime i asked a question she stared at me and answered quickly. This place CHARGED me for a lid they advertise on their platform that is part of the drinks. I am not coming back ever again. The drink was good but i do not support businesses that don't care about their costumers in person the way they care for them online. read more

Cute little boba spot that offers my favorite - cheese cap! Haven't seen places offer cheese caps in EP so I was excited about that. I am still deciding if I prefer Kung Fu Tea at the Fountains or Boba Mi Amor. I will have to try the other drinks and update my review at a later time. read more

Fantastic beverages and really great seasonal drinks, especially the Spicy Mexican Hot Chocolate during the Holiday.

This place is amazing! It's so great to have really great boba come to the west side of El Paso. My boyfriend and I have tried the matcha with strawberry purée, matcha with peach purée, watermelon lemonade w/ chili poppers, and the brown sugar milk tea! ALL SO GOOD. The boba is always consistent, the owners are both incredibly friendly and the store just has a warm vibe to it. It's only opened just recently but we've found ourselves coming back over and over again. Highly recommend this sweet business! read more

Boba Mi Amor - Matcha with peach purée - Bubble Tea Near Me - El Paso, Texas

Great, solid milk tea. Small place though. Big plus that they use paper straws!!! The Decour was beautiful there was a bubble gum bubble that was really good for a child's palette. 4.5 stars because the avocado was seasonal. Will be back to try out all their drinks since it's right next to the vape shop I like. You know it's legit when they have salted crepe and cheese foam. Of course, it was my first time so I got the jasmine and classic milk tea. Both were amazing. I was reluctant to try out their Thai tea because I was worried it would taste generic like the canned ones with the weak artificial taste. Must try out all the milk teas! This place has got quite the variety. read more

Boba may be overcooked but the nice man at the counter and the pretty decor really light up the place! The Horchata and matcha combo was great! read more

This used to be my favorite boba place. Overall, they have good drinks, but in reality they really have only one good drink. But every single time I try to come here, they are randomly closed or they close early for the night. Tonight I went and they closed just a few minutes early, which I understand. HOWEVER, there have been times where they lock up an hour early? Why? They already close super early!!! Never coming back, it's not worth coming over here just for it to be closed every f****** time I happen to go. I would imagine they'll be going out of business soon, they probably don't have enough customers if they keep closing so early. read more

Great place! Never loved boba, but this place let me tell you! Got me hooked on it and every time I go into the place and idk what to get, talk to the main person (BOBA QUEEN) she's awesome and she'll help you out! Amazing place and she's got a whole variety of stuff makes me want to try the whole menu read more

Oh yuuum. Tried the Thai tea with cheese foam and the lemon cloud and both were so tasty! The lemon cloud tastes like lemon cheesecake. The cheese foam is perfect though it sounds kinda weird at first. Really cute decor too. read more

They have amazing customer service and the teas are better than any big brand boba shop! They're a local mom and daughter shop and it shows in their quality! read more

I am shocked by how delicious this place is. When my husband wants to give me a gift of appreciation, forget flowers, chocolates and jewelry, he is bringing me a drink from here. In a way this shop has made our lives easier, no more guessing on what I love, it's milk taro boba. Can't wait to try them all. read more

This place is awesome! Staff is great and knows their stuff. Best Boba spot I've been to comparing spots in Washington state and Texas.

If you decide to spend your money here, make sure you know what you want and do not dislike anything on the menu. If you do, you will be told "I guess we can't help you". Instead of working with a customer to find something that they would enjoy, the owner basically tells you to leave. I'm sure the owner will reply by saying I was difficult, this simply is not true. I was just trying to find something I would like. My plan was to return often and support local. I tried. read more

Great customer service and fresh teas with tons of choices. Very nice location. Will become a regular customer! Definitely recommend!

I went on Wednesday, it was super busy, almost time to close. I ordered & waited more than 30 min for two drinks. & then the lady tells someone else that was waiting before me that she doesn't have any more boba, I'd they would like a topping. They get their drinks & then she tells me that she doesn't have anymore boba so I choose other toppings. I was very frustrated because I waited more than 30 min & then for my drinks not to be the way I wanted. It was my first time trying this boba place, I was excited & it was busy so that meant that it must be good. I was very disappointed with my drinks & the service. They kept taking orders & orders & they didn't check that there was no more boba. & also the waiting time was the worst, they were taking forever. You could tell the lady was frustrated as well, she didn't even know what was the drink, what it had, who it was for, she kept asking the costumers what was the drink, etc. Horrible service, they were super disorganized. read more
