The Ultimate Guide to Boba in New York City | Eater NY

"The owners Amy and Kenney are second-generation Chinese American siblings who grew up in Manhattan’s Chinatown and opened NYC’s first boba and sneaker store in May 2021. They decided to combine their love for sneakers with boba drinks as they hadn’t seen that concept before in the city. Past the shelves full of sneakers and an array of streetwear from emerging young artists, there’s a small bubble tea counter in the back. The most popular drinks include Pacific Lemonade (butterfly pea flower tea with lemonade), Shattered Mango (a mango slushie with mango jellies and popping boba), and Lychee Yakult with lychee jellies. They also regularly host events in their storefront." - Anna Huang
