TE'AMO BOBA & DESSERT is an AAPI women-owned bubble tea and dessert cafe franchise that began in Chicago in 2016. We pride ourselves on crafting bubble tea with high-quality, organic, and natural ingredients, offering options like organic milk and plant-based alternatives so you can enjoy your drinks without the guilt.

Alongside our bubble tea, we feature a variety of Asian fusion desserts including cheesecake baos, light cakes, fresh coconut panna cottas, and mochi donuts—each bite designed to bring something special and unique.
Our dedication to quality earned us the Best Non-alcoholic Drink Menu in the 2023 Chicago Tribune Readers' Choice Food Awards, and we’ve been highlighted by media outlets such as Chicago Tribune, NBC, FOX NEWS, and WGN.

The TE'AMO Evanston location is also a collaboration with Lao Sze Chuan and Cotti Coffee so customers can order from all three businesses in one location.

Lao Sze Chuan is a Sze Chuan cuisine with authentic bold flavors and a long-standing reputation for rich, spicy, and savory dishes. Originally from the Chicagoland area, but now has grown nationwide with over 25+ locations across the United Space.

Known for its quality, convenience, and affordability, Cotti Coffee offers expertly crafted coffee, tea, and lifestyle beverages enjoyed worldwide.
