After numerous tries to be sure (for research purposes of course) I have determined that Moccacino is my favorite pearl tea place in the East Bay and definitely the best in Berkeley, which I had previously thought to be a blight on the pearl tea world. I had been going to Lotus House and Mandarin House, and while they're acceptable, they're not what I would call good or great. I'm not sure how long Moccacino has been open, but I can't believe I've never tried it until this semester!!1!!!21! The biggest drawback to Moccacino is that it closes early (8 or 9 pm), which really sucks.
The sweetness of the Moccacino's pearl tea fluctuates a little (sometimes a little too sweet), but I can taste the tea, and the pearls are sweet and of pretty good consistency. The price is great if you choose the two for $3.00 special. The special is limited to Black, Jasmine, and Thai, but still that's an amazing deal. Their barley milk tea is supposedly pretty good - I'll have to try it some time. The bento box combo with salt and pepper chicken is a decent buy too. Another plus is that their straws are individually wrapped, so I don't have to roll the dice with my health on the line each time I grab a straw.
You're probably wondering what I would do, buying two PMTs at a time. Here are some possibilities.
Drink both.
Drink one, save one.
Give one to my roommate.
Give one to you.
Throw one at you.
Shoot pearls out of a straw off my balcony.
Give one to a hobo.
Save all the extras ones for a month and put up a little PMT stand by the side of the road.
Make a tapioca totem pole.
Leave one on the sidewalk and see if anyone is willing to drink it.
Tie one to the end of a fishing pole and see if I can catch me some Asians.
Pour one loudly into a public toilet while someone is in an adjacent stall.
