Chinatown Montreal By Allison Pinski

Here is yet another throwback to our trip to Montreal this past summer. While in the city, we stumbled upon the Chinatown sector, which is located along De la Gauchetière Street. While exploring Chinatown, looking for one of our favorite knick-knack shops (the Shun Fat Trading Company), we decided to try bubble tea for the first time from Jus Aloha.

While there are several shops in Chinatown Montreal that sell bubble tea, we were attracted to Jus Aloha for its colorful shop and the line of customers inside. Below is a picture of the shop, courtesy of Yelp.

I ordered a honeydew melon tea, and was very pleased with it. While I did not enjoy the tapioca “bubbles” in the tea, I was impressed with the flavor of the beverage, and would certainly like to try more upon my next visit. Jus Aloha offered many different flavors of tea, including strawberry, mango, coconut, honey green tea, lychee, and passion fruit. You can check them out on their Facebook page.
