Experience

Hula Boba is one of my favorite bubble tea places because it’s a place where you are able to customize your own Boba drink. If you are not a fan of certain tapioca , you can choose to put your own toppings.

Personally, I am not a fan of tapioca, so I usually add honey dew, kiwi, melon and pineapple chunks into my smoothie. My personal favorite is honey dew, passion strawberry and mango pineapple smoothie. The texture and flavors are delicious especially when you add your own toppings too. If you are a tea person, the signature Thai tea is very refreshing as well. One of my favorites is the Oreo shake, it includes Oreos, milk and awesomeness all in one. If you are a cookie lover, the Oreo shake and cookie butter smoothies are the ones for you. 

Customers usually purchase the Thai milk tea, winter melon milk tea. If you are a fan of smoothies, the most popular smoothies are the honey dew, lava flow, lychee and cookie butter (yes I said cookie butter).
