Lotus Boba Tea

We decided to go to Lotus Boba Tea to get a drink to help us cool off from the spicy food we just had for lunch. This boba shop is one of the only ones I've seen that has a drive through lane. While we didn't use it, I found it to be pretty unique. We only got one drink to share:Lotus Special Milk Tea, Less Sweet, Large ($6.40) - This drink comes with boba and custard pudding. Less sweet was still super sweet and tasted like I was drinking candy. There was no tea taste or astringency at all to balance the sugar. The drink itself was a bit chalky and powdery, like it was made from powder. The pudding was standard - almost all boba places use standard suppliers for pudding. The boba was cooked well and had a good chew., maybe a slight bit soft, but pretty good overall. Honestly, I didn't like the drink overall and ended up throwing it out after struggling to finish half of it.Maybe the other drinks here are better? I'm not sure I would go to Lotus again even if I lived in the area.

This is a nice place. A little confusing on where to go to order, but small enough to catch on. I ordered the Sunrise Red Bulk drink and my wife ordered a green tea w/mango flavor and mango popping boba. She liked loved it. I'm not a fan of coconut, but the sunrise drink was really good. It was sweet with a hint of coconut. Perfect combination of flavors. Good service.Suggestion to customers. It would be good to look at their website to see what's inside the drinks.

There is no shortage of Boba places in my native San Gabriel Valley, Southern California. Pretty sure I could put on a blindfold and throw a softball in any direction where I live, and land within spitting distance of a place that wax-seals the tops of their six dollar drinks.So during our 2022 Cross Country roadtrip, we were not surprised at our first stop in Las Cruces to see a boba joint (yes, we drove more than 700 miles our first day, Mildred.)Somehow the kids talk to us into it, so we went inside, not brave enough to try to navigate the drive through with a large truck and camper trailer. Everyone in my family got their usual orders: I got a traditional boba nai cha; my boys got that brown sugary thing because their milk teas can never be too sweet, my daughter got some weird pink fruity thing with Boba, and my wife got something that after one sip, she decided she didn't like as much as mine, so we traded. happens every time.The drinks were good, boba had a good chew to it, and they didn't go overboard on the ice like some places... You know the ones, where are you take two sips and your drink is empty there's nothing left in there but a whole cup of ice and Boba at the bottom.Do they call it bubble tea here? I don't know. We were only in New Mexico for one day on this trip, so I guess I'll have to ask them the next time we're there.

Inside, the store is very small, and you self order from a monitor. Customers service was good. The bobas were average. The drinks were bland and in the smallest drinking cups for the high price. This boba place is better than the other one in town.... but not by a lot.

Service was good! The lady that helped my was kind and nice. We usually come here when we're visiting Las Cruces and quite enjoy a match smoothie and the taro coconut with boba. I just tried the Tiger with boba and let me just say this... was so delicious. The boba has a delicious savory flavor that I love! I will definitely come back when I can. They do have a drive-thru that was kinda easy to miss, but still neat!

I enjoyed this place a lot because it never seems to run out of boba like other places. Might just be lucky, though. The drink itself is pretty refreshing and sweet. The size pretty good. Sometimes the line in the drive thru can be a bit long but the orders seem to come out fast enough. In order to avoid the big line we opted to go inside and that's when we notice maybe the drive thru wasn't as bad of a wait. Because the service was not the best. We waited a while to have our receipt handed to us to sign and they almost forgot one of our orders which they proceed to slam on the table when it was ready. They sure caught our attention with that. Being that busy can take a toll on the employees so I can see it could be a circumstantial occurrence. Next time I'll just use the drive thru and spare the abuse because the tea is really good.Provecho!

This place is kind of a random surprise. On our way back from a hike, we thought we'd grab something sweet. The interior was a little confusing since everyone was just sitting and hanging out so even when we ordered, it was like they were just waiting for us to be ready. The boba was chewy- not undercooked or overcooked so perfect. The flavors were really good, too. If we're ever around, we'll grab a boba from this place for sure!

So happy I found this place! My daughter was craving boba and I decided to give this place a try. The drive thru is so convenient. The employees were super friendly and quick. I'll be back again soon!

Go. Just go. The matcha custard bubble tea is delish. The regular bobba tea is delish. They have dairy free options AND coffee based options AND smoothies. Plus, a drive through window they put together for COVID times. I hear it's a relatively new business and I look forward to coming again.

I loved their bubble tea my kids liked it too friendly also the green tea was nice and fresh my girls had strawberry tea and they say that it was fresh the Boba was chewy and good you should totally go if you like bubble tea
