After a successful soft opening, local boba shop Ni Hao Tea is hosting a Grand Opening celebration from noon – 9 p.m. on Saturday, February 12 at 2800 N. Campbell Ave.

It’s likely you’ve seen the shop already open near Glenn and Campbell, which is the former stomping grounds of the Yogurtland.

The shop will be giving away a free drink to the first 100 customers of the day, along with a free Nia Hao Tea pen — great for signing and leaving tips on receipts. 

Also, throughout the day they’ll be having fun activities inside the shop and a raffle for those that stop by, giveaways, and a photo booth for instant memories.

What’s on the menu?

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 wanted to thank all of our customers for their continuous support,” said Kim Zhou, owner of Ni Hao Tea. “We will stay true to our mission of serving high-quality boba drinks to the Tucson community.”

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 Matt

At 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.
