I think most old school RS members started going to Dragon Ball since it opened. Most people, like winson604, has a favourite and stuck with it. The mango or lychee slush was definitely one of the few favourites I had.
For me, bubble tea is bubble tea. But Dragon Ball's claim to fame was consistency. They are known for their fresh taro drink as others have mentioned, but I have never tried it.
Don't go there expecting a 4 star Michelin experience. All in all, I haven't had anything bad there of the 11 years I've been going there.

Wait, what?
So this place you are talking about has taro back in stock but they don' t use the taro in their drinks? Am I reading this right? I sure as hell won't be going there anytime soon.

Went to Gong Cha on Robson over the weekend. Milk Foam tasted sour and likely gone bad, would not go again.  | |

Now that they restocked, there is no taro in their taro milk tea.
The taro makes the $5.25 more worth it.

L&G. .. Never disappoints except if you order their food (sushi in particular ).
Milk & Sugar on Kingsway, west of Tyne. Love their specials and their small size when you don't feel like you want the normal bladder filling size.

The taro there is nasty as fuck. And so was the chocolate mousse Just stick with the milk tea, roasted, brown rice, etc.
Today is the last day of the free upsize if you show them you followed them on Instagram for all locations. I believe they close at 11 on weekdays. ???????????????????????????
Taiwanese chain Sharetea will be opening two locations. First location will be at 435 North Road in the Coquitlam side of the BBY/COQ border.
Soft opening Nov 16 to 21st 1-9pm with by one get one free promotions.
Richmond location will open at the end of the month

CoCo is milkier
Cha time more watery
So it really depends on you and what you like.
I normally don't get pearls (empty calories and could be bad for you)
Used to go to pearl fever for pudding slush with pudding but they make it weird now i'm sad about that 
Watermelon slush at dragonball is good too 
E tea is probably the worst place to go for bbt now a days (rupert and 22nd)

Any of the roasted milk teas since they don't use the powder base.
I'm not saying it like it's a bad thing. It's all about your preference.

Theres only one roasted milk tea.
I've only had one other milktea there and thats the brown rice, and yes, it is watery. It can be negated by having extra milk. Of course it also depends on how competent the employee at the time is.

Sour mango slush @ Bubble World, Roasted milk tea @ ChaTime and regular milk tea @ Pearl Fever are probably my favorites.
Anyone try ShareTea yet? How was it?

Sharetea is very similar to CoCo IMO -- very good since I like CoCo a lot more than Chatime which i think is very overrated...

It was my first time trying shiny tea today my friend ordered panda milk tea for me i didn't like it all that much. Will have to try it again another day
I was walking around crystal mall and passed by a place called comebuy it's outside in between the two buildings? Looks interesting. Apparently it's based out of Taiwan.
Would've tried it if i didnt have shinytea.. Oh well next time

Seems like a better trade off to just suck it up and pay for 12 drinks before getting 1 free.
