A Fresh Take on Traditional Boba
If you’re a boba lover in West Des Moines, you’re in for a treat. Zenko Tea, has opened up a third location for your liking. This one being their biggest one yet with nice and modern space for comfort. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Zenko Tea promises to be your next go-to destination for refreshing and flavorful drinks. Let’s take a closer look at popular drinks they have at Zenko Tea.
Zenko Tea’s menu boasts a range of tea options, from traditional jasmine and Tajin and Chamoy combination, to innovative blends like Zenko Tea, a signature house flavor. On my recent visit, I tried three standout drinks: Flan Boba, Jasmine Tea, and Zenko Tea. Here’s my breakdown:
- Flan Boba: This dessert-inspired drink features a rich, creamy flan topping paired with perfectly chewy tapioca pearls. The sweet custard flavor combined with the smooth milk tea creates a dreamy boba experience. It’s the perfect treat for those with a sweet tooth.
- Jasmine Tea: If you’re in the mood for something more classic, Zenko’s jasmine tea offers a beautifully fragrant floral profile. The tea is light and refreshing, making it an excellent choice for a midday pick-me-up. The boba adds a nice texture without overpowering the delicate flavors of the tea.
- Zenko Tea: This signature drink is a must-try for anyone visiting for the first time. The Zenko Tea is a unique blend of fruit and floral notes with a slight tanginess that makes it stand out from typical boba offerings. It’s not overly sweet, so it’s ideal for those who prefer a more balanced flavor profile.
All the boba is freshly made and if you’re luckily enough like me, maybe yours will come warm and chewy for your boba customization. With its unique flavors and fresh approach to bubble tea, it’s no wonder this is the third boba shop to open in the area. If you’re craving a tasty boba drink with flan, jasmine, or the signature Zenko flavor, make sure to stop by and experience what all the hype is about.
