We proudly use fresh fruits, natural premium tea, and the finest ingredients to bring you the most Natural, Healthy, and Tasty Taiwanese Bubble Tea and Taiwanese Food!

In 2010 a young couple had their honeymoon in Hawaii and fell in love with this beautiful island. They decided to spend the rest of their lives here. They spent three years to prepare to move to Hawaii and wanted to bring something special to their paradise: the most popular drinks from Taiwan. Unlike other bubble tea stores, they insist on using the most natural ingredients in order to bring the most healthy and tasty drinks. They use fresh fruits instead of concentrate or powder, and pure cane sugar instead of artificial syrup. They carefully pick and import premium tea from Taiwan. In order to provide the best quality, they freshly cook bubble and brew tea every couple of hours. More than that, they insist using pure water to brew every cup of tea, and brown sugar for the bubbles to bring the best taste. They also offer different levels of sweetness and ice, and several different toppings and make every cup to your liking. As their slogan states, they want to bring you the most Natural, Healthy, and Tasty drinks!

There will be more Taiwanese food coming on their menu: snowcream, TW Chicken wings, popcorn chicken, noodles, tea egg----. Welcome and enjoy!
