Expect Insane Lines for Instagram Star Tiger Sugar’s Debut

Social media sensation Tiger Sugar from Taiwan debuts its Instagram star boba drinks to Las Vegas when it opens on Chinatown’s Spring Mountain Road on March 7 with long lines waiting to order its syrup and fresh mousse cream tiger stripe dessert drinks.

During the grand opening, the restaurant plans to hand out prizes to the first 100 customers in line. Tiger Sugar’s specialty drink combines brown sugar syrup, tapioca pearls, and fresh milk shaken up and down a recommended 15 times to create the unique tiger-striped patterns.

The counter-service restaurant offers a full range of hot and cold boba beverages, plus black and green tea lattes.

Tiger Sugar, 5150 Spring Mountain Road, 702-272-0442. Open from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.
