③TP TEA    

Price:★★★★

Chewy:★★★★

Sweetness:★★★

Quantity:★★★★

TP tea is the closest tapioca shop from Shinjuku. There is in Shinjuku station, so you must enter the gate. If you focus on access, TP tea is the best choice. It opened July 20 this year, and first released in Japan. TP tea is presented by “Chunsuigtan” comes from Taiwan. One feature is less sweetness tea. I recommend 100% sweetness for person who has a sweet tooth.

This shop has two type of tapioca, big one and small one. Both quantities will satisfy you. I was surprised that I could drink tapioca without interruption.

Chatime is loved by many countries around the world. When you need quantity and affordable cost, CHATIME is the best choice.

As you can see, most drinks can choose cold or hot. That is to say, strong point of this shop is variety of hot drinks favor. Hot tea makes tapioca chewier. Even more surprising is being able to choose temperatures of liquid, as like 40℃, 50℃, 60℃… I am sure Chatime will be necessary for winter season.
