Kung Fu Tea San Marcos

It was 2009, Michael, Allen and Ray were walking around Flushing, Queens. They had just returned from a trip to Taiwan and were looking for their favorite childhood drink: bubble tea. After some searching, they found a tea place, ordered, and sat down to discuss some of their new business ideas. Meanwhile, they sipped at their teas and immediately put their drinks down.

They were confused, this was not the bubble tea they had come to love in Taiwan. It was a mediocre knockoff at best. As they looked around they saw a long line full of thirsty customers. They looked up at each other, that’s when Michael, Allen and Ray realized that they had just found their new business venture.
