Popular boba tea chain is opening a new Sacramento location — and more are coming soon
A popular boba tea franchise founded by a UC Davis graduate will open its sixth location in the Sacramento region this weekend.
Teaspoon will kick off its soft opening phase on Saturday at 2441 Fair Oaks Blvd. in Arden Arcade in the Loehmann’s Plaza shopping center, according to its social media pages.
The company, which promises customers an elevated experience, sells an assortment of drinks and small bites.
There are already five Teaspoon locations in the Sacramento region, with sites in Davis, Roseville, Folsom, Walnut Creek and El Dorado Hills.
What is Teaspoon?
Teaspoon, which advertises itself as a destination for the “best boba in town,” was founded in 2015 by Amy Lai.
The UC Davis alumna opened her first shop in Los Altos to create an innovative drink experience that combines American flavors with traditional milk tea, Teaspoon wrote on its site.
There are nearly 50 Teaspoon locations across the nation, according to the franchise’s social media pages.
Teaspoon said it infuses “each sip with love,” using the “power of nature’s finest ingredients.”
“From our humble origins as a small tea shop, we’ve blossomed into a national sensation, driven not only by our exceptional tea and seasonal offerings but by the genuine love and support of our customers,” the drink company wrote on its site.
What’s on the menu at new Sacramento boba tea shop?
Teaspoon’s menu features teas without or without tapioca pearls, coffee and pastries, according to its site.
Customers can pair infused tea with red velvet cake or coffee cake.
Other drinks on the menu include smoothies, lemonade and fruit juices.
Dessert options include brownies, macaroons, lemon bars and crispy rice puffs folded with marshmallow cream.
What are open hours at Arden Arcade locations?
The shop will officially open its doors from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday with perks for certain quests, according to its social media pages.
The franchise said customers who follow Teaspoon’s Instagram page will receive a 50% discount on purchases made at the new shop on opening day.
