I was so excited when I saw Presotea on Yelp! I used to go to the locations in SoCal, so imagine my pleasant surprise when the very first NorCal location turned out to be in Elk Grove. I had high expectations because I enjoyed the drinks in the past and loved that their other locations oftentimes had great promotions or deals going on. When you walk in, there are people taking orders and two mobile order tablets as well, which makes ordering easy. There are a few tables too for people to sit at, but it is still a smaller space overall. Presotea has a large variety of drinks, including fruit teas, teas, milk teas, Vietnamese coffees, and others. I decided on the hojicha milk tea, 50% sweetness, less ice, and panda boba. The tea flavor itself was good and strong, and I enjoyed the combination of black and agar boba. The drink was a tad bit on the sweeter side for my preference, but next time I'll just get 25% sweetness. The cashier wasn't quite sure whether or not the creamer was nondairy when I asked, but they do allow substitutions with oat milk or another alternative for an extra cost. The prices are reasonable, and they also have a point system. The (I believe) owner of the shop also came around to check in on us and ask how we enjoyed the drinks, so that was nice of him. Overall, I'm glad Presotea has made its way up here, and I'm excited to keep coming back to try their other drinks! Hopefully they will have just as many good deals as their SoCal location too. read more

Presotea - Hojicha milk tea with panda boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Some of my trued so far is ... . Genmaicha milk tea with no sweet add boba and less ice. - it was perfect on the taste. The ice wasn't enough so I asked for a ice on the side to make it colder for it to be easier to drink. The first couple sip reminds me of a boba shop inside Japan town in LA which is bomb gigity! . Specialty fruit tea , has passion fruit puree and white oolong peach flavor tea. So good and refreshing. I added popping boba instead of regular boba and some aloe Vera which is yummy. . Boba - chewy and has some sweet honey or in general sweet flavor. Chewy texture is great, not hard, not super soft but middle chewy which I like. . The interior has a couple tables and plain wall with artificial grass with neon light saying. It's cute and simple. . Overall I am fan. I will be back for more boba drinks when I'm in the area. Thanks for reading and have a yelptastic day! read more

Presotea - Genmaicha milk tea and fruit tea special - Bubble Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Came during Presotea's soft opening. I'm glad that a new boba spot took over the location! I've had Presotea in SoCal and it was decent but I was a little let down since there was so much hype around it. This time around I tried the White Peach Oolong Tea w/boba and Lychee Milk Tea. I got the White Peach Oolong Tea with 50% sugar and it was still a good amount of sweetness with the bitterness of the tea. Something that's very refreshing! The boba was more on the loose side and didn't have much of a chew or bounce. The lychee milk tea was also good, however I wouldn't prefer lychee in my milk tea and would rather have it with a fruit tea. My boo actually really enjoyed it though! He got less sugar too and it was still a good balance. read more

This spot took over Big Bobba Theory and is next door to Tokyo Teriyaki. I tried the Preso coffee which is served iced. The drink was strong and tasty. The menu isn't as diverse as some tea shops but it's still worth a visit. read more

New boba place in Elk Grove. Whenever I come visit I like seeing new options. We ordered 3 drinks, I got the kumquat lychee fruit tea. Love the drink! Great flavor, fresh ingredients and you can adjust your sugar and ice levels. Their interior is always really modern and chic. There's a cute grass wall for photos :) Fast service, friendly staff. read more

I honestly was super excited to try this place out and had high expectations. Inside it looks really pretty but since it was colder outside it ended up being like humid and almost steamy. I ordered on the kiosk and it was pretty easy. When my drink came I had one sip and was super confused cause I wasn't only tasting boba. I looked at my order on my receipt and I didn't add any extra toppings. I went up to the counter to ask and hopefully get it fixed, but the person that I spoke with told me "that's the wintermelon bits" and sort of shrugged. The menu never stated there would be these bits in the drink so I was taken aback. They did not offer to make it right or suggest something else. I was sort of given the cold shoulder after I asked add that was that. I would give this place a one star, but I am hopeful that I could get better service and a better drink if I were to come back. Right now I'm not jumping at that opportunity though. read more

We were in Elk Grove and we were looking for a boba place that did blended bobas. My son suggested Presotea! I had the Hawaiian Slush (Kumquat with pineapple) and boba blended and my husband had the Taro Cloud blended with no boba and we both had 30% sugar and it still tasted pretty sweet! We might even try 20% sugar next time! The Kumquat blended still had quite a bit of ice that didn't get blended! It just needed a little bit more blending! read more

I was only here for a quick minute, but the ambience was nice inside! It was easy to order through the kiosks, and service was quick. I received my drinks in about 5-7 minutes. The employees were friendly too! I got the A Li-Shan Milk Tea with Oat Milk and a Wintermelon Milk Tea. They were both refreshing and gave me the right fix I needed. The menu was pretty extensive, and because it was my first time going here I had a lot of trouble choosing what to get. I'll definitely come back to try the other drinks! read more

Saw that another new boba place opened up so I took my brothers to try it out! We came around 330pm and it wasn't busy at all. The interior is very modern- Your typical boba shop nowadays with the cute little grass wall and neon sign. I like how it's kiosk based which is nice. Our drinks took about 5 mins to receive! I ordered the taro milk tea with oat milk and 70% sweetness and crystal boba- it was alright. I'm not sure if it's because I ordered it with oat milk or if it's because I ordered less sweetness, but my drink was super watered down :-( I also didn't realize I ordered crystal boba (it was my first time having crystal boba) and I didn't really enjoy it :-(( One of my brothers ordered the Brown Sugar milk tea and another ordered the Hojicha milk tea both with oat milk- they were also confused why it seemed so watery. Not sure if it's the oat milk they use but everything was extremely watery. We've ordered the same drinks at other shops with oat milk and it was still tasty and sweet, but not here. Maybe we have to try it with regular milk? Idk. Glad we got to give this place a try though! read more

I'm very disappointed by this boba tea shops service. I am being charged for toppings and I didn't get mine. Went to pick it up and drink at home. This is an order of one drink. How do you mess up an order of one drink??! The drinks are good but I am being charged for lychee jelly I didn't get. Unacceptable. read more

Just recently visited after a few horrible visits and I can confirm the drinks are back to its normal chilled perfection. Sacramento is very lucky to have Presotea, I keep telling my friends that Presotea has the best tea. Even better than chichasansen. As always, white peach oolong tea is to die for. read more

The Genmaicha milk tea is like no other! Something about the drink tastes so nostalgic. My typical order is the Genmaicha milk tea with just pudding. read more

Got 6 drinks from here and first time too. *Drinks can't taste any tea favor, added too much milk?? They don't know what is different between black pearl and grass jelly? *Service fast service, I guess we are the only customers. *Ambiance nothing special read more

Came for their grand opening since they had bogo and wanted to try it out! They were super busy when we walked in and you order on the kiosk which was pretty easy. It's about the same layout as big boba theory and there's about five tables and one small table so a good amount of seating. They have the cute led light sign to take photos with too! It's not as aesthetic as rose tea I got the genmaicha milk tea with boba and sub oat milk. I give it a 4/5 since the boba was alright and softer than normal places. It's pretty pricey in my opinion for elk grove boba but the drinks are yummy They had a raffle but it was only if you spent $10 read more

Top 3 boba spot for me! Came here a few times and the drinks, service, and cleanliness never disappoints! I've tried a few drinks here but the taro cloud and lychee strawberry fruit tea are my favorites I never had boba with a frappe but the flan cafe frappe highly recommend trying for my coffee lovers! read more

Presotea - Lychee Fruit Tea middle Flan Cafe Frappe - Bubble Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

They brew their tea fresh for every cup, every single one. That just blows my mind. I wondered why their tea was so much better than other places and that's why. Usually other places will brew it en masse, then just have it sit around all day. These guys brew it fresh for every order. Big fan. read more

Avocado smoothie. This is a winner. Such a struggle to try something different when the avocado smoothie is so perfect. It's creamy, perfect sweetness, and very avocado-y. Of course, it is! Not to say other beverages aren't fantastic. The crème brûlée milk tea is a wonderful, sweet treat! The taro cloud is also a winner. If you don't know what to order, try this one. The Oreo cloud is just as good! Place your order online or the kiosks in the shop. Try your luck on the claw machines for novelty items. You'll need tokens to play. Get some near the ordering kiosk. Good luck! Even if you don't win anything from the claw machines, your drink will be the prize. Enjoy! read more

A very hidden boba spot for sure, but it didn't disappoint. This was my first time, and I was surprised with the consistency of the avocado smoothie. The pearls were flavorful and soft. My husband liked the signature fruit tea, the sweetness was just right and flavors blended well. Wait was about 5 minutes, didn't take long at all. We ordered on the kiosk, pretty straightforward. Would definitely come again! read more

Presotea - Avocado Smoothie with Boba Signature Fruit Tea with Lychee Jelly - Bubble Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

I've tried a few of their fruit teas but haven't liked any that I'd get again. My SO who usually describes most drinks as "pretty good" or "okay" said his signature fruit tea was "nasty but better than water." I don't remember the boba previous times but this time was so mushy :( read more

EG is coming up with so many new boba places that I'm losing track! I never tried Presotea and the pictures looked soooo refreshing. I'm more of a fruit tea girl over milk tea so I wanted something to cool me down on this hot day. I chose the Lychee Mango with aloe vera, 30% sweetness and regular ice. There are mobile ordering screens as well as a physical cashier which speeds up the process. There was only two people working but the drink orders came out in an efficient manner despite how busy it was. This spot is also located in Laguna, which is right by the Target area and is a great option for the nearby college as well. The drink was refreshing just as I expected. I try not to have too much sugar whenever I order boba since I know that there's a lot of artificial flavoring. Even though I ordered 30%, it was still sweet (my mom said it tastes sour but she has a sweet tooth), so next time I would opt for 0% just to see the difference. Either way, it was super good and I'm so glad I gave this spot a try. They have soooo many flavors to choose from so I'm exciting to swing by whenever I want a fruity drink. read more

Presotea - lychee mango - Bubble Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

An OK tea place if you want a quick fix. They use espresso method to brew their tea bag. I don't think it affects the tea flavors in finished products. Or their teabag is just of average quality. Tea 18 in Natomas used the same method but yield better results. If you're shopping in the area and want some boba, theirs is not bad. Not a favorite, but not bad. read more

Presotea is one of my favorite boba spots! Their drinks are handcrafted with high-quality ingredients that you can taste with every sip. There's a lot of different types of drinks on their menu, ranging from milk teas, fruit teas, and coffee. My favorite drinks are the Sakura Milk Tea and the Hojicha Milk Tea. The Sakura Milk Tea is a white peach tea with strawberry puree. It was different than my usual milk tea orders and I enjoyed it very much. The Hojicha milk tea had the perfect "roasted" flavor. They also offer the bubble waffles which were delicious as well! It's the perfect flavor and sweetness. Service was great and the wait wasn't too long. The shop was pretty spacious too with a few tables to hang out and sip on drinks with your friends! Highly recommend! read more

Finally got to visit Presotea! Upon arriving - I liked how there was a lot of parking & how there is a parking lot. Inside of the teaspot - I noticed how clean the place was! Me and a friend went on a Thursday and they had 20% off their fruit teas! I got a Strawberry green tea with lychee jelly with 75% sweetness. It was really fresh and not too sweet! Just the perfect amount! Can't wait to come back and try more drinks from here! read more

Presotea is located in the Laguna Park Village plaza with plenty of parking in the shared parking lot. I had them in SoCal and liked them, so I was excited to get to try it again here. Not much service here, you order through the kiosk and wait for your drinks. There were not that much customers when I came, but my drinks took awhile to come out (about 15-20 minutes for 2 drinks). I ordered the Caramel Frappe with boba and Jasmine Milk Tea with boba. The Caramel Frappe was a bit too strong for my liking, it did not have that much sweetness to it and the drink did not taste cold at all - it tasted lukewarm. The Jasmine Milk Tea was not that creamy from what I had at their other location and it tasted bitter and lukewarm, so it was hard to enjoy. read more

Service is horrible. They made my drink with the wrong topping by adding lychee jelly to it and I did not order that topping. So instead of making me another one, the scooped out the topping and then gave it back to me. They didn't apologize and looked annoyed. I didn't want to bother with it and have them make it wrong again. Drink tasted fine and nothing special to make me want to come back. read more

The drink is bland. It's hot and feels stuffy inside. There's not much to say about the service because you just order on the kiosk.

A small, clean boba place at the corner of the plaza. Ordered a fruit tea drink and the a-li shan milk tea with panda boba. Service was pretty quick and the server was nice when I had questions. I thought both drinks were pretty good, but I prefer my drinks to be on the sweeter side and even though they were both at 100%, I think they could've been sweeter. I'll probably come back to try their other drinks. read more

4-ish stars rounded up to 5! Favorite drink that I tried was the Presotea house coffee; tasted super creamy and was pretty much tiramisu in drink form. The passion fruit green tea was tasty especially with the real fruit pulp in it. I added black pearls to the drink and although the pearls were a bit too soft for my liking I liked how well they absorbed the fruit juice from the pulp and became strongly of passion fruit flavor. The coffee jelly added to the earl grey milk tea didn't do much (didn't really taste any coffee) but this milk tea was still very good; nice amount of earl grey tea in it. Big disappointment on the hojicha milk tea w/ pudding; very watered down tea flavor (could only really taste the sweetener) and the pudding was bland. Hard pass on this drink. Overall though really strong start to this boba spot! read more

Shared parking lot. Clean interior, with tables seating 2-4 people. Almost empty in the late afternoon on a weekday. The staff do not wear masks. I didn't spot any hand sanitizer, but I might have missed it. Since their internet was down, the two kiosks for ordering were nonfunctional. One seemed like it would work since you could look at the menu items and add to cart, but it lost connection once you tried to check out. The other side effect of no internet is that they were unable to take card payments - cash only and no receipt given. On the bright side, the service was fast - my drink came out within five minutes. The prices are pretty standard but lean towards the higher end of the spectrum. It's a little disappointing that they don't offer any savory food. The kumquat iced tea was good but had a slightly bitter aftertaste. read more

YUM! Went in today for our boba fix. Tried this place for the first time. This place has a cute green wall inside for your social media needs. It's a very cute establishment. We got the a-li shan, which is sweet, but light at the same time. The brown sugar creme brûlée was VERY sweet, but very delicious with the creme brûlée chunks. One of my favorite desserts, in a drink. I wish I altered the sweetness because it's too sweet for me and this was my drink order. It'd be perfection if I had ordered it correctly (less sweet). Although I tried the rest of the drinks as well. The avocado shake was yummy, thick, and milky. The brown sugar milk tea is the perfect mix of not too sweet and you're still able to taste the tea. Service was great, the girl working was super friendly and bubbly! read more

I come to place once a month and they never disappoint. Love their craft teas. My go-to is the roasted oolong tea(50 sweetened).

Presotea has taken over the old Big Boba Theory location and I am a fan! They've updated the decor and added in the touch screen kiosks for ordering. I've had a few different drinks including the milk tea, jasmine tea, and strawberry fruit tea. The boba is super soft and chewy with a nice hint of sweetness. They also have rainbow jelly which my little one loves. There are also a lot of different tea options and the drinks taste like freshly brewed teas, not powdered. Service has always been quick and friendly despite there being a big crowd most of the times I've stopped by. Only downside is the cost of the drink since toppings are a la carte and $.60 each. I paid $8 for one drink last time, ouch. Inflation I guess! read more

Presotea is from Taiwan and has many stores. I ordered the White Peach Oolong Tea with black pearl on their kiosk. I ordered this because white peach was something different, and because it was #7 on their top ten list. While I enjoyed the drink, I should just stick to my preferred milk tea. The boba however was too soft to me. read more

We tried Presotea twice now and both times were a disappointment. The first time we got a milk tea (forgot exactly which one) and the taro cloud. The milk tea wasn't very memorable but wasn't bad but the Taro Cloud wasn't good, remember it being flavorless. The second time we got the Ceylon milk tea with boba and the Oolong Peach Tea. The Ceylon milk tea okay, but the worst part was the boba tasted old and was very mushy. I ended up just throwing out the boba since it was gross. The Oolong Peach tea tasted like perfume, wasn't enjoyable. Unfortunately, don't see us returning. read more

Yay! Another boba shop in Elk Grove. Lol this one is out of the way for me but I happen to be in the area yesterday and decided to grab a quick drink. They have a kiosk where you can order. This was nice as it was my first time and I didn't feel pressured to hurry and order. They also have photos of every drink, which is very helpful. The kiosk doesn't take cash though, so make sure you have your cards or apple pay! My two drinks took awhile to prepare but I noticed they did text me stating it was a 15-20 min wait. That's convenient that they text your receipt and wait time. I noticed they were playing OG BTS at one point and I just love that!!! I had their lychee black tea which was really black tea infused with lychee but the lychee flavor was very subtle. Even at 100% sweetness. I would probably order it again with lychee jelly for more of a lychee flavor. My husband had their viet coffee and it was good, just a little sweet. If we are in the area again, I'd love to stop by! read more

One of the worst wintermelon teas that I had ever tasted. The boba was slightly hard and there was a slight sour after taste to my tea. I added aloe, but that shouldn't have changed the taste. The aloe was weirdly crunchy unlike the usual refreshing chew that you normally experience with aloe. It felt like I was taking a bite of a water chestnut or red tapioca. Definitely better boba options in the area, but I saw a decent rating and it was already within the same parking lot of where I was. You order through a kiosk so no interaction was needed and for a store that was pretty empty, the time it took from ordering to receiving the drink was slow. read more

Wow, I was excited, a Prestotea was here in Elk Grove. This brand has a lot of hype and I was excited to try them. The ambiance was great and welcoming, two kiosks made it easy to order, however I was disappointed, the drinks were not great at all. The creme brulee was not very tasty and the boba had no sweetness to it. My son didn't like his cloud drink either. Everyone has different tastes, so I don't want to discredit their product. Maybe I was so excited to try their drinks, I was expecting a lot. I don't leave many reviews and when I do, it means something. read more

I came across Presotea on Instagram prior to their soft opening announcement. I've been patiently waiting their opening because they took over the old location of one of my favorite boba shops that closed recently. When I walked in, it was completely unrecognizable! They kept the same layout but did a full remodel. It looks beautiful and very modernized. I came during soft opening day and was happy to see that I didn't have to wait in a long line yet! They have two ordering kiosks but there was also someone taking orders at the main register also. I also saw that you can order ahead via Snackpass online in case you don't have time to wait. I ordered: -Strawberry Fruit Tea: I love a great fruity drink so I was excited about this one. This one is a white peach green tea with real strawberry purée. It was sweet from the strawberry without being too tart. My only downside was that the strawberry kept sinking to the bottom no matter how much I mixed it before every sip. But I think this can be easily fixed if the purée is less thick. -Flan Cafe Frappe with pearls: The flan topping caught my eye when I was going through the menu. It's unique and you don't see this at every boba shop! The flan makes the drink super creamy. Combine that with the warm and fresh boba, it's a solid drink! I'm not usually a blended drink fan but I'd get it again. -Taro Cloud with pearls: The prettiest of the bunch! Can't go wrong with classic taro. It wasn't anything special that I can't get elsewhere but it was a great flavor nonetheless. Perfect for those that like the artificial taro (like me) and not the real taro purée. The pearls are so soft too and melt in your mouth with the cold smoothie. -White Peach Oolong Milk Tea with pudding: although this isn't the most picturesque, white peach milk tea is one of my favorite flavors so I always try to order anytime a boba shop has it on the menu! The peach is so fragrant and probably the best white peach milk tea I've ever had. The pudding is also super creamy. Service was great! I think it was the owner or manager who helped me and he was very patient and helpful. He estimated 10-15 minute wait but all four of my drinks were done in less than 10 minutes. Can't wait to come back again! There are still so many drinks I want to try, especially the hojicha and genmaicha milk teas! read more

New boba shop in EG and it did not disappoint! Very modern with a couple of ordering kiosk systems for you to select and choose your drinks of choice at your own pace. Their drinks are really good and i recommend adjusting your drink sweetness to 50%...it was the right amount without being overly too sweet. And their boba are soft and chewy! Great service with super kind and patient employees. Will be back again! read more

Yay new boba spot in town! One thing that always gets my attention about boba spots is their interior design. Presotea definitely didn't lack in that area. Spacious, lots of seating, and simple decor. The customer service is great too! I don't usually have bobaristas come and check on me to see how I am doing/if I need anything. Friendly staff. As for their drinks, I got the lychee strawberry slush and blueberry fruit tea. I ordered 75% sweetness for both and I loved how the drinks were not overly sweet. It was just the right amount of sweetness. The boba balls were sweet and chewy too! For their milk teas, I ordered the Genmaicha milk tea and crème brûlée milk tea. The Genmaicha drink was so roasted and fresh. It tasted pretty good! As for the crème brûlée drink, it's a classic! You can't go wrong with it. I can't wait to come back to try their other drinks! read more
