Kung Fu Tea

Kung Fu Tea is a bubble tea shop in Syracuse, part of a brand with multiple stores that has built its name on boba drinks. The name comes from the idea behind kung fu itself: the drive to improve yourself and push past limits you once thought were fixed.

The company says it applies that mindset to everything, from the ingredients in its drinks to the service at the counter, and it points to more than a decade in the bubble tea business. For anyone in Syracuse who likes chewy tapioca pearls in a cold milk tea, or just wants a break from coffee, it’s an easy stop.
