MORRIS COUNTY, NJ — A popular bubble tea chain with locations nationwide is set to open a new shop right here in Morris County this weekend.

The Taiwan-based tea store, ThirsTea, will have a soft launch on Thursday and Friday before officially opening to the public on Saturday at its new location at 192 Parsippany Road, inside the Green Hill Plaza in Parsippany, officials said.

ThirsTea, known for its creative and customizable beverages, first opened in 2019 in Temecula, California. The brand quickly became popular among boba lovers, offering a diverse menu that includes milk teas, smoothies, milkshakes, slushies, rolled ice cream and more.
