The pearls are hard to heat up, and it’s different from what I imagined brewing milk tea to be. This one requires adding milk, but it’s really sweet with milk... I probably won’t repurchase it.

I like this kit a lot as you can use real milk not powder milk.

Tastes like taro flavored milk. Reminds me of strawberry milk. The boba was surprisingly decent. Very sweet. Will definitely finish the packs but wouldn’t go out of my way to get it. 5/10? Will be trying it with a milk substitute to see how that affects the flavor.
