Saint's Alp Teahouse= YUMMY Bubble tea!

So today I hung out with my friend Dominique today and since she has never tried bubble tea, i felt it was my duty to make her first bubble tea experience at Saint's Alp Teahouse. Being that I had my first bubble tea here, I knew that they had a wide variety of very delicious bubble teas, both hot and cold. I'm not sure what is exactly defined as a buble tea, I would assume drinks that have tapioca on the bottom but they also have drinks with nata de coco but I don't know if one should call that bubble tea as well. I have had many drinks at this place and would highly recommend their natas. they are basically cold drinks with little gelatin cubes at the bottom that taste really good. you just have to try them. I think my favorite drink to get there is called the wild berry nata.
  

It tastes like a sweet berry juice and when you have those nata de coco with it, it's awesome. Since most people like juice, you can't really go wrong. I recommended it to her cuz she was in a juicy mood and she loved it. I had a lychee nata but there is no picture because it is a relatively new drink on their menu. It looks like the wild berry nata except it was clear. All i can say is that it screams lychee! Lychee's a fruit that I just recently stumbled upon when I tried it as a topping on my frozen yogurt and loved it so i had to try this nata and i was not disappointed!Another drink that I didn't get today but have had is their taro. I'm not sure how to exactly describe how taro tastes but its a milk tea that has a really dominant milk flavor. That's what really stands out to me and leaves that milky after taste. It has tapioca at the bottom which I love so i gobble those up too.

So if you're ever in the Lower East Side and it's a warm day, go cool off with some bubble tea at Saint's Alp Teahouse. It will not let you down!
