6 Best Bubble Tea Places in Michigan!
Fruity, frothy, and flavorful—that’s a good cup of bubble tea. A Taiwanese beverage that combines iced tea with sweetened milk and “bubbles” made of tapioca, some swear by this unique and delicious drink. Michigan's got plenty of places to land your next bubble tea, and here are 6 of the best.
Detroit Bubble Tea, Ferndale, MI
It's all right in the name, as Detroit Bubble Tea offers Detroit residents a place to get delicious bubble tea. Detroit Bubble Tea also offers their eponymous treat in a variety of different ways. Not only can you select your own starter flavor from cake batter to watermelon and a wide array of others—ever have a hibiscus bubble tea? You will here! But you'll also be able to get it in slushie form, iced tea, smoothie or milk tea formats, even hot or cold. Finally, pick your bubble of choice—tapioca don't do it for you? Try fruit juice or coconut jelly instead—and you'll have the complete picture right here.
Cafe Boba, Kentwood, MI
Head to Kentwood to check out Cafe Boba, a place that focuses on one of bubble tea's lesser-known nicknames. It may be called Boba, but it's as bubble tea as it gets around here. You'll have just about all the choice you could ask for here, with bubbles added to smoothies, teas, and even Italian sodas to round out the package. You'll even be able to engage in flavor mixes here. Instead of stopping at just one, you can go all the way up to four. Soup, salad, and dumplings round out the options available.
Kawaii Bubble Tea, Clinton Township, MI
At the brightly-decorated and cozy Kawaii Bubble Tea, know that you'll have access to around 400 different flavor combinations. How does that sound? Choose from yummy options like honeydew, matcha, red bean, strawberry, and more.
Lucky Sushi Cafe, Grand Haven, MI
Lucky Sushi Cafe in Grand Haven is an excellent addition to the little lakeside town. While you'll also be able to land yourself a sushi dinner here, Lucky Sushi Cafe also offers plenty of options in tea. Bubble tea is an especially prized offering here, and some unusual flavor combinations can be had. Ever wonder how peach and pineapple would go together? Try it here! A green honeydew tea, perhaps? Also on hand. Throw in several varieties of bubbles and the result is worth the stop.
Pasty Haus, Frankenmuth, MI
If you're already in Frankenmuth, then you know you've got a lot to see and do there already. But while there, hit the Pasty Haus for not only a shot of Michigan's famous treat, the pasty, but also some bubble tea. With a wide range of options in fruity, creamy, and special-tea, you'll have taste options for weeks out here. Flavors range from the simple of a peach tea with kiwi bubbles known as the “Pe-Wi” to the cranberry orange, starting with orange milk tea, then adding yogurt bubbles and cranberries.
ChocolaTea, Portage, MI
At ChocolaTea, pick your flavor of choice—from almond to watermelon—and add bubbles from several options. Once you've constructed your bubble tea of choice, now the fun part (or perhaps the hard part) begins—choosing one of the many side dishes, chocolates, soups or sandwiches to go with it.
