Recommended Menu Item
This time, I tried
the #1 most popular
Brown Sugar Bubble Milk (L size).

The L size is HUGE and seriously heavy!

Served fresh and warm, with the rich sweetness of brown sugar shining through ❤️
And the tapioca pearls? Wonderfully chewy with the perfect bite ❤️
I always end up ordering the #1 favorite,
but with such an extensive menu, I’d love to try something different next time 🥤
How about treating yourself or your family to one on your next weekend outing in Kumamoto?
Thanks for the wonderful drink! ✨
