The Alley

The Alley is a Taiwanese milk tea company that specializes in what’s called “Deerioca,” the brand’s hand-made version of tapioca pearls. A lot of heart goes into making these perfect bites. They take pride in the fact these bubbles are made from scratch and have become globally-renowned for their unique texture and pleasing aroma.

Fun Fact: Their soft, chewy tapioca are fondly called deeriocas after the chain's deer imagery.

They also make their own sugar cane syrup in house, from a process that involves boiling all natural, high quality sugar canes. The sweetness is delicate but never overpowering. 

Fun Fact: For their signature drink from the Brown Sugar Deerioca Series, the pearls are cooked in a premium brown sugar customized specifically for The Alley. Talk about first-rate!
