One of world's biggest bubble tea chains, CoCo originated in Tamsui, Taiwan back in 1997 and now boasts over 4000 stores worldwide — across countries like Japan, the Philippines, Thailand, the UK, the US and, of course, Australia and New Zealand. Yet, despite the brand's magnitude, each shop still serves up a quality product every time. The tea is made using fresh seasonal fruit and whole tea leaves, sourced both locally and abroad. Expect flavours like pandan, taro and salty cream, plus signature white pearl varieties. You can also add pearls to any and all flavour combinations, as well as additional toppings like aloe vera, lychee jelly and 'cloud' — which is a whole heap of cream floating on top. At the moment, there are 18 Sydney locations, including nine in the CBD.
