The first time I came here it was so good the guava smash fruit tea. I got it this time and it wasn't good. It's not consistent here and I was disappointed. I brought my girlfriend and she said hers was alright. I was raving about fruit teas how this use to be my favorite and it wasn't a fail. I switched over to tea pulse now. read more

I was in search for a refreshing, cold drink while walking around Flushing over the summer and Taning Lemon Tea fit the bill! It's a very small shop, just an order/pick up counter really and it was super busy when I visited. They seemed to be getting a lot of online orders and it was a struggle to get someone's attention to take my order. That aside, the guava lemon tea was just what I was looking for! And the neon green color scheme and branding of the shop is very eye catching - I loved the NYC cup sleeve! Next time though I'll order online first. read more

There's a BOGO deal on the grand opening weekend, the cheaper drink will be free out of the two. Fast service from friendly staff. Your # will get called by the staff and it also shows up on the LED screen. They've tons of different fruit lemon teas, some milk teas, and even fruit teas with cheese foam. They can't do no ice, only less ice which is already taking up more than half of the room in the cup. How's that supposed to be less ice? Maybe the fruit teas will taste better because I've definitely chosen the wrong drink to try from the menu. Except for the bouncy-textured bubbles, this "Signature" Brown Sugar Bubble Milk Tea isn't technically very memorable & probably the worst I've ever tasted in Flushing and all of NYC. At least you can reuse the insulated tote that the drink comes with it... I did 70% sugar (but still tastes so diluted + bland because of the "less ice" situation). Can't taste any of the brown sugar syrup either despite shaking the drink thoroughly - very subpar overall). Milk flavor is overpowering the tea, like what tea are you talking about? Just very watery in general. My 2nd drink is the Juicy Strawberry Lemon Tea for the BOGO promotion. Less ice & 50% sugar, this one tastes kinda underwhelming too. Did I say I was hoping that the fruit lemon tea might've tasted better? Boy, am I wrong. Mhm the fruit flavor doesn't seem to have a fresh + authentic taste, maybe because they're using syrups instead? Tiny space inside with merely a storefront. Don't think you'll miss the lime green color though. It's across from the parking lot on the same street as well as the Sheraton Hotel. They accept both cash and card for the payment. My Conclusion: You might be better off spending money around the corner at Auntea Jenny..... read more

Came by to kick off my food crawl in Flushing recently - perfect to have a drink to cool down from the heat and carry the drink around as you hit your first few spots. I got the standard lemon green tea that is most advertised and it was nice - not too sweet, refreshing, nice bitter tea flavor. So glad another chain from China has made its home in Flushing. I love lemon tea so I love that this place is here, and really close to a lot of prime food crawl spots that you'll want to hit up. My friend got the guava lemon tea as well and that was pretty solid, too. While I think it's hard to stand out in an excelling wave of amazing drink shops coming from the East, I do think Taning Lemon Tea is offering something that other places aren't and is worth visiting. Not sure why all the negative reviews. There was no wait when we visited around 6pm on a weekday. read more

Taning Lemon Tea - B - Tea Rooms Near Me - Flushing, New York

Another new addition to Flushing's growing bubble tea street. Got four drinks as they are currently doing a BOGO free promotion (only 1 free drink per order). Long wait for the drinks to be made as they only had 4 staff members handling the grand opening crowd. There were TV screens to keep track of orders but a bit of a delay as the "ready" screens weren't updated in real time. Drinks were packed into a cooling bag which was nice. The lemon tea drinks had cute NY themed cup holders. Got all my drinks with less ice (but apparently less ice= half cup of ice...) and 70% sugar. Green grape jasmine lemon tea- lemon was the strongest flavor of this drink. There were tiny pieces of grapes to help counteract the tartness of the lemon but overall the drink wasn't too sour. Couldn't really taste the jasmine tea. Signature oolong lemon tea- oolong tea with the addition of lemon flavor. Not as sweet as Vita Tea's lemon tea. Mango pomelo sago- besides sago as a topping they also had crystal boba. Lots of mango was used to make this drink so it was very creamy. They were very generous with the toppings (crystal boba, sago), mangoes and pomelo for this drink. Less ice compared to the lemon tea drinks. Brown sugar milk tea- go to Tiger Sugar instead. Overall I think their lemon teas will be more popular in the summer but there isn't really anything that really makes the place stand out amongst all the bubble tea shops in the area. read more

This is another new boba/ lemon drink spot on Prince Street. I was quite interested in the cup design and that it is focus on lemon tea. I ordered the signature lemon oolong tea (#1). It was okay. I didn't find anything special. It kinda reminds me of Lipton tea. It lacks oolong tea taste. I also share my drink with my partner and he said the same thing. The service was pretty fast. Despite a large number of customers waiting, I only had to wait around five minutes for my drink. I really liked the packaging. Although I'm not quite sure about my drink. I will try again next time to see if it is better or try another drink on the menu. read more

Walked into their "soft opening" and got 20% off except they weren't offering some of the items. I went safe and got their signature lemon oolong tea. . It was ok, wasn't strong on the tart aspect, more tea tasting, but it was good and refreshing on a hot summers day. There was a decent about of pulp but the pulp didn't have any flavor. It was dried up. The pulp didn't have any burst of juice in them... . My friend got the guava lemon tea, she didn't really like it, it was too sweet, kinda artificial sweet, might be just syrup and not the real fruit juice. But that's just a speculation. She also said she has seeds in her drink. . They do offer milk and fruit teas as well. I'm not sure if would try their other drinks aside from the lemon teas... the one I really wanted was the jumbo lemon tea, but I really wanted it for the gram . read more

New drink place originating from China that opened at the corner of Prince Street and 39th Ave in Downtown Flushing. They are known for their lemon tea which is perfect for the summer time if you want a fruity refreshing drink rather than a heavy milk tea. However, if you prefer bubble tea they have that option as well. The menu is not too big with a variety of flavored lemon teas and they only offer one size which makes it simpler if you have a hard time deciding. They also offer some snacks like eggs waffles. The place is quite small so it's a order and go type of place. The employees were friendly too and recommended me the top 5 drinks. I got the #1 signature oolong lemon tea with 50% sugar and regular ice and it was the perfect amount of sweetness. They also have an ongoing promotion where if you buy two drinks you get a mahjong Lego set, but only 50 each day! Will definitely come back to try other flavored drinks as a refresher when I'm strolling around. read more

Pretty refreshing tea! Got 5 different flavors and my favorite was c10 smashed wampi lemon tea 爆打黃皮檸檬茶, 30% sugar level was just right and with less ice. Really popular spot and lots of orders, good to try if you're looking for a new spot to check out! read more

I'd normally visit a few times and try a range of items before I give a final verdict these days but after 1 visit and 2 items, I'd say I have a pretty good idea of what I'm getting out of this place. I was pretty excited to try Taning Lemon because in a group of Asians, I'm usually the only one who doesn't ride hard for bubble tea. And add to that, that lemonades are my summer guilty pleasure (both Western and Eastern). I ordered the Signature and my ex-wife that I'm still in love with ordered the Guava Strawberry (she's a guava mama). And they-- were-- just alright! "Just alright" as in they're pretty indistinguishable from something advertised to middle school children, where the flavors were there but heightened by sweetness. Honestly the strawberry had a syrupy taste to it. In fact, this might even be their target audience considering the overwhelming waves of color and music in the store. I was having sensory overload. The workers were a mixed of sassy and unpresent. In fact, now that I think about it, this might've been an encounter with the infamous "Gen-Z stare". The cashier engaged with me as if I'm supposed to be knowledgable of everything on the menu. Trust me, if your product was more delicious I'd care to know more. The unpresentness, I'll give a pass because we were in the middle of a heat wave and closer to the end of a shift. Taning's the only Eastern lemonade option that I'm aware of in Flushing, so if you're like me and need a periodic refreshing drink with a tang, at least there's this. read more

Another bubble tea place in "bubble tea alley", Prince Street area. This one specializes in lemon tea, hence their name. Service was a little hectic because of their 'buy one get one' weekend, grand opening. But not that bad. Nothing compared to Molly Tea's long lines down the block. Unfortunately at this place you can't choose no ice, only less ice. Even then the ice takes up half the cup! So I finished the drink pretty quickly and got left holding a cup full of ice. I felt like I needed to go get another drink somewhere else. Drinks come in a bright lime green reusable tote bag. Decor: a small place with bright decor. None of the drinks seem particularly special. With so much competition in the area, this place is going to find it hard to compete. read more

I thought this place was very charming. It's obviously a small business trying to stand out in the sea of bubble teas that are available around Prince Street in Flushing. I was drawn in by the bright green color and cute packaging in store. I'm a boba fanatic and like to think I be tried most brands... so "lemon tea" specifically is something I haven't seen much of yet. I ordered the coconut lemon tea and mango lemon tea. You get to see the workers crush lemons and make the tea in front of you, and my coconut one had what I think was coconut water with jelly in it, and the mango lemon tea had bits of mango too. I thought they were both refreshing and very yummy. Service was fast and friendly but maybe I had less conversation because the workers had limited English, which is fine, they were still plenty friendly and efficient. I'd def go back and support this place again. read more

Finally tried this new spot which has lines out the door usually! It's a very small shop where you're just meant to order and leave, so understand that there's not really space inside to wait. Believe the line is driven by their opening special where they are giving out some sort of small toy in exchange for purchase of specific items, but I didn't want the toy so tried the frangipani as my friend recommended. Maybe it was because I got reduced sugar or maybe I just ordered the wrong drink, but it tasted as I would imagine some sort of natural insect repellant to taste. Despite the absolute heatwave this past week, I was tempted to just toss the entire drink due to the taste. read more

Came here excited to try a new lemon tea place. Regret! Nothing special. Saw they have a promo of buy 2 jumbo but was out of the Mahjong Lego thing but they were out. So just tried their signature drink and I got my usual minimal sugar. What a disappointment. I've had from a lot of places with sugar and low sugar it should not leave the tongue overstimulated and bitterness. I barely drank mine and I had to throw it out. Not gonna be back at all. I'll just get my lemon tea from my other normal places over this. read more

Ordered their Oolong Lemon Tea and my partner got their Orange Tea. I liked how refreshing they are, but we did have to wait a little bit for our drinks. This place is relatively small so it is definitely a grab and go type of place. read more

I tried 2 drinks and they were just so bitter. I tried the oolong lemon and the green grape jasmine and they were both too bitter. I like lemonade and sour stuff, but I would not get these drinks again. read more

Super cute little spot with the nicest staff. I got a brown sugar milk tea and it was great.

Very clean and drinks are good and refreshing. Inhighly recommend the mahjong waffles I give them 4stars

I love the tea! So refreshing! I went there every day while I visited flushing for a week.

First off, the employee Jeffery had an amazing attitude--super friendly and welcoming! I ordered the guava lemon tea, and it tasted fresh and natural, not artificial at all. My friend got the kumquat drink (#3), and it was absolutely delicious. We both really enjoyed our drinks and can't wait to come back and try more from the menu! read more

Eh wasn't a huge fan. The drinks were mostly ice. I got the jumbo size which is huge. For 7.99 each they had a promo going on. Drinks mostly just taste like lemon water. Don't really taste the other flavors. read more

Good service. Tea was pretty good. A bit different option to your classic bubble tea.
