The Best Boba in Los Angeles and the San Gabriel Valley | Eater LA

"Latea is one of the few boba shops that makes its own boba on premises, multiple times a day. The shop uses the owner’s late grandmother’s homemade boba recipe, which she used to sell boba at Taiwanese night markets back in the ‘80s and ‘90s. Latea tries to use organic ingredients whenever possible. The Thai tea, for example, uses natural tea leaves without any orange coloring from preservatives. There is also an array of drinks that all use organic tea. The matcha latte with oat milk with longan honey boba is a fan favorite, as are the roasted brown sugar milk and tiramisu milk teas. There are a handful of dairy alternatives available as well." - Kristie Hang
