Metro Vancouver’s tea scene is getting a vibrant green upgrade this season. CoCo Bubble Tea YVR has officially launched its highly anticipated “Crushin’ on Matcha” Series, a limited-time collection that highlights the refined flavors of Japan’s premier tea-growing region, Shizuoka.
Known for producing matcha with a deep emerald hue and a perfectly balanced, earthy umami, Shizuoka tea is the star of this new lineup. CoCo has expertly paired this premium ingredient with fresh fruits and indulgent textures to create four standout beverages that are as beautiful as they are delicious.
The Lineup: A Match(a) Made in Heaven
Whether you are a matcha purist or a fan of fruity fusions, the series offers something for every palate:
- Matcha Mango Latte ($6.75 L / Reg. $7.50): A tropical-meets-earthy delight where lush mango puree balances the robust notes of the matcha.
- Matcha Strawberry Latte ($6.75 L / Reg. $7.50): A vibrant, fan-favorite pairing featuring tart strawberry compote and creamy milk.
- Brown Sugar Pearl Matcha Smoothie w/ Macchiato ($7.11 L / Reg. $7.90): For those seeking decadence, this smoothie features CoCo’s signature chewy brown sugar pearls and a velvety, salty-sweet macchiato foam.
- Matcha Latte ($5.76 M / Reg. $6.40 | $6.30 L / Reg. $7.00): The quintessential classic that allows the high-grade Shizuoka tea to truly shine.
