Sinceretea

I wish there were more locations in the Bay Area! There used to be one in Walnut Creek but it seems like that one closed. I loved the cloud series, especially the taro blueberry one. It was pretty much like eating a nice cake! The strawberry rhubarb one was great too though a little too sour for me (nice for the summer). The jasmine milk tea was also super fragrant and the rose jelly was delicious on it.

My family enjoys the egg puff mochi. We like the sesame, chocolate, and the matcha egg puff mochi flavors. We can also adjust the sweetness levels of some of the drinks. For some of the drinks, the sweetness levels can be reduced to 50%, 25%, or 0%. For some of the other drinks, the flavors are pre-mixed, so the flavors cannot be adjusted. I like the Jasmine Pandan drink with coconut milk and 0% sugar. We order the drinks and food items on-line and pick up at the store.

I was skeptical of another boba place that would be priced around the good ones, but was sincerely amazed 😅. The price for milk teas is 3.50. I haven't seen a price that decent for boba shops for a long time. A lot of their drinks are original and bring a different experience (seasonal drinks keeps flavors changing and new). FOOD: Rose Milk Tea with House made Rose Jelly - The flavors of the rose are noticable without being overbearing. The floral aromatic notes of the rose compliments the sweet and creaminess of the milk tea very well. All this being said, I usually never enjoy rose flavored anything because the rose flavor is usually very strong and taste like perfume to me. However SincereTea has made as pleasant as it can be for drinking. Berry Merry Special Tea - A sweet cold drink to cool off when it is hot. The strawberry popping boba gives this drink a fun and sweet burst. I get boba all the way to then end of the drink unlike other boba shops that either give you too much leaving you with excess boba &no tea left or not enough boba and a lot of tea left leaving you unsatisfied. The ratio of boba to tea is perfect. Hot Hibiscus Herbal Black Tea with Orange Slices & Mint. - The hot black tea warms my heart. The flavors of the orange slices add sweet and citrus notes to the tea while the mint, not being overpowering, is refreshing contrast to the tea. Not the biggest fan of mint or hibiscus. However, I would come back for this again. Perfect way to warm up on. Green Tea Mochi Egg Puff - I am a very big fan of matcha and enjoy the strong and bitter taste of tea. However the matcha in the egg puff is not overpowering, but subtle and eases its flavor onto the palate. The sweetness of the egg puff negate any bitterness from the matcha leaving this egg puff very easy to eat. STAFF: Friendly and inviting. The owner also is very open to questions and can answer what is popular, drinks that go for specific taste preferences. SHOP: The ambiance of this place makes this a new favorite place of mine. It's clean and very welcoming. The music selection makes it very mellow and stress free (Nujabes 👍). The only complaint I would have is that when the blender or another machine is being used, the motor is very loud. I do understand this is a tea shop and the use of a blender or other machines with motors is required.
