Ok I admit it… I’m a tea addict. I’m starting to become a regular at Tea Station. When you walk in the door you get a nice greeting from their automatic censor that says “ni hao”. The drinks are a little pricier than most tea shops, but I really enjoy this place. I don’t mind paying one or two dollars extra because the service is good and the atmosphere is nice and quiet.
My friend got the lychee ice jelly. This time they made the drink a lot better. The lychee juice wasn’t too overpowering and it had just the right amount of sweetness. The sweetness was subtle enough, that you could finish the whole drink. The added jelly and boba made it enjoyable to drink as well.
I felt like having a hot drink, so I ordered the hot almond milk tea. The drink came in a large urn, with a small spoon to ladle the drink into the tea cups. I was a bit saddened because they didn’t give me a tea pot this time. I had gotten a tea pot last time I ordered a hot milk tea drink. It was pretty relaxing while I was ladling the tea into the individual tea cups. The blend of flavors in the drink was well mixed. There was a hint of almond in the drink and the sweetness was just right. To my surprise the drink had some body to it and It coated my tastebuds just perfectly.
Stay tuned for when I visit the Clairemont Mesa Tea Station!
Taste: 7/10

I think your tea was served in a medicine mortar bowl. not a large urn. =)
