The local boba shop, Ni Hao Tea, is opening up a brand new location at 2800 N. Campbell Ave. — the stomping grounds of the former Yogurtland.
The spot at Campbell and Glenn is planning to officially open up on Monday, January 31.
Nia Hao’s drinks include black tea, green tea, and Thai tea — freshly brewed using premium tea leaves, too. The menu also features a variety of milk tea, iced tea, iced fruit tea, slushes, and cream cheese milk cap teas. Flavors range from fruity to classic (such as matcha and taro) and specialty.
“We want to ensure all our customers in Tucson get high-quality boba tea drinks with top-tier ingredients,” said Kim Zhou, owner of Ni Hao Tea. “No need to travel to other cities in Arizona or California to get a quality boba because Tucson has our own quality boba tea store.”
“Thanks to all of our customer’s support, we are able to expand and open a second location,” said Zhou. “We are very excited about our new location and we look forward to serving quality boba tea drinks to all of our customers at both locations.”
Highlighted Specialty Menu Items
- Fresh Taro Smoothie – “It’s one of our best-selling items. It has a sweet, creamy, and nutty vanilla taste. The smooth creamy texture combined with the buttery nature of the fresh taro tastes very delicious”
- Fresh Brown Sugar Milk – “We use warm brown sugar boba, roasted brown sugar syrup, and lactose-free whole milk.”
- Matcha Latte – “It’s made with ceremonial-grade matcha that is directly imported from Japan. When mixed with lactose-free whole milk, it’s unbelievably delicious.”
- Cream Cheese Tea – “This one is made with real cream cheese, condensed milk, and lactose-free milk. Many people said it tastes like a liquid format of cheesecake with a hint of saltiness.”
Ni Hao Tea’s new location is at 2800 N. Campbell Ave. and the original location can be found at 4726 E. Broadway Blvd., which opened on February 2020. For more information, visit nihaotea.square.site or follow Ni Hao Tea on Facebook.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
