Fruit Jungle

Just another standard bubble tea store. I was a little disappointed because they had run out of tapioca when I went at around 5pm on a Friday evening.
The O Canada milk jasmine green tea was good because it wasn’t too sweet or milky. The lychee + longan juice, however, was lacking flavour. Since they didn’t have tapioca, they offered lychee jelly instead and I’m guessing that was why the drink tasted exceptionally bland. The sweetness of the jelly must’ve overpowered it. Bad call.
Overall, the lady was quite nice. and she even gave us a VIP 10% off card (but I believe that to be because business isn’t doing so well).

So good. What’s there more to say?
I got the mango slushie bubble tea and it tasted so fresh with fresh mango. Whether or not real mango was used, I have no idea, but it sure tasted like it!

4.5÷5
Couldn’t resist stopping by here after seeing all the amazing Unilocal reviews on this place! I had such a hard time deciding what I wanted since there were a bunch of posters all over the walls (as you can see in the other Unilocal photos). My brother decided on the Mango Lychee slush and I decided on the Lychee Longan slush. The mango lychee is delicious! The lychee Longan didn’t have enough «slush» texture for me. The drinks did take awhile as I believe there’s only one person in the back making each drink at a time and the line ups are long.
The lady (most likely the owner) was super nice, recommended drinks to me and also gave me a VIP card for 10% off. I don’t go to FMP a lot but hey, I’ll take the VIP card. I spent over $ 10 to get this.
I’ll be back the next time I come to FMP. I saw another Unilocaler talk about Watermelon Lychee. My favourite drink! Wish I saw that before I ordered Lychee Longan. Next time!

This place has ruined all other bubbletea places for me.
I used to pass by this place thinking it was just another cheap, mediocre bbt place based on its looks — its menu consists of a bunch of 8×11 sheets of laminated paper in a grid. Moral of the story: Never judge a book by its cover.
I ordered the small mango+lychee juice for $ 5.10 after tax. This drink was liquid gold. You could taste the real fruits they use and the tapioca had the perfect chewiness. It was so good that I finished it before I even got home.
If you decide to go to Share Tea, Preso Tea, or any other bbt place in FMP, congratulations, you just played yourself.

I’ve lived in Markham my whole life, I must have gone to FMP at least a hundred times now. I’ve passed by this unassuming place just as many times and never actually bought anything from it. I’ve had a couple of their drinks brought to me before and I never really realized where they came from; I only knew they tasted amazing. Every drink I’ve tasted had real blended fruits and milk.
Today, I finally decided to pay a personal visit and gave their «O’Canada tea» a try. While it was just honey and milk green (or black) tea, you can taste the real honey in it (they promised no added sugar). I’ve tried this exact same drink at many other bubble tea stores. This one has the most genuine honey taste by far. They also promise their drinks are refreshingly cold without the use of copious amounts of ice. The quality is very high and had very reasonable prices to go along with it (my large was $ 4.50, with free tapioca).
The lady at the counter was very friendly. She never stopped smiling and the drinks were prepared very quickly. I now understand how this place has been around for over a decade. I really underestimated this modest little bubble tea shop and it has earned another repeat customer in me.

I grew up on Fruit Jungle. Proud to say I used to go there when they had their first Pacific Mall location. Their green tea ice cream bubble tea is the kryptonite to my healthy diet.
Fruit Jungle uses the following:
Real fruits and not unidentified powder (ChaTime and ShareTea all use milk powder and «fruit» powder/​syrupy.)
Less ice than other stores (not half a cup of ice)
High quality pearls
When you order a drink from Fruit Jungle, you are drinking with a peace of mind. The service is always fast and friendly! Quality is consistent! If you are feeling snacky, Fruit Jungle also make the best five spice curry fish balls!

Ordered up a large avocado + durian milkshake which came to around $ 7.50
It was a lot to pay for a drink but they do use real fruits here instead of that powder crap that many other places use.
The drink was very smooth and tasted great. I could taste a lot of the avocado flavours but sadly there was very little durian flavours I detected. The drink was still very enjoyable.

Tried the Blueberry Milk Shake and it was delicious. Definitely able to taste the fresh fruit used.
Service was fast and friendly. With all the options at First Markham, this one wouldn’t be a bad choice. They are a little pricy but the flavour is worth it.

Everytime I’m in First Markham place, I always make sure to grab a drink before I go from Fruit Jungle!
They have a great selection of drinks, service is always quick, and staff always friendly!
The drinks are always prepared fresh, and good tasting.
I like how their quality is consistent, and that’s what keeps me coming back to this place. Prices are standard.
I make sure to try a different new drink everytime, and I find all their drinks taste awesome! I recommend this place highly to my fellow Unilocalers!

Tried finding another business in this mall, but happened to see Fruit Jungle once I entered. Decision made. The many options can be daunting but as this is my first time here, I looked up their top 10 list and picked one I liked. Lychee & Longan Juice with pearls.
Their claims for no ice and chewy pearls were definitely spot on. No crunchy bits encountered as I inhaled the drink along with the soft and squishy (but not mush) pearls.
Definitely a winner here and can see why there is such a dedicated following on Unilocal.=)

Best Taro Milkshakes EVER. Boom done.

I like super-​popular chain of «That Bubble Tea Place» that has popped up all over the GTA and various ‘burbs, but Fruit Jungle will always have a place in my heart.
To be fair, this stuff isn’t really bubble tea — apart from the tiny tea or milk tea selections, Fruit Jungle really serves fruit juices and fruit + dairy mixes. Unlike «That Bubble Tea Place», Fruit Jungle serves real, fresh milk and blends fresh fruit with no powders. The Chinese name of this place roughly translates to «3 things not sold/​included», which promises to be sold free of powdered flavourings, no ice (cubes, in place of juice) and zero plasticizers thought to typically be contained in the making of tapioca balls.
I love milky stuff, so I tend to go for the milk shakes, which is literally milk + your fruit (s) of choice. If you like durian, definitely try the durian milk shake. It makes my durian-​hating hubs hate me for the smell, but ehhhh, I likes it. My other favourite is the super creamy avocado shake — the menu actually lists a combo of the two!
Important stuff to know: They take cash only. If you buy $ 15 (or was it $ 20?) worth of drinks or more, you can get a VIP card that gives you a 10% discount every time you show it upon payment. The menu can be overwhelming, but sometimes there will be the odd new menu sheet that lets you know which fruit is in season or recommended for peak ripeness.

Talk to me about bubble tea, and I will roll my eyes at you.
Fruit Jungle is the ONLY spot that I will, without a shame, grasp a bubble tea at.
Extracted from a sign they pridefully had up, they boast their bubble teas as… (and, mind your manners, there is absolutely no spellcheck necessary):
— NOT POWDER FAVORS ! BUT REAL JUICE !
— NOT HALF CUP OF ICE CUBES ! BUT SUPER ICED COOL !
— PEARLS NOT ROCKY OR DELICATE SOIL, BUT CHEWY AND YUMMEI
Look at all of those guarantees! What could go wrong with that?
What we had here was a $ 4 Taro Milk Shake (blended with milk and FREE TAPIOCA — golly goshness!) and balls, lots and lots of juicy Satay Beef Balls ($ 2.25 for 3 pieces) and Lobster Balls ($ 2.95 for 4 pieces).
Perhaps the best bouncy, juicy, tasty and warm balls I’ve ever laid upon my tongue. The Taro Shake was out of the world amazing — no word but «ugh» could describe this phenomenon.
Fruit Jungle is on another level. DO IT.
It’s always the hardly dainty ones that get you.

Ordered the avocado/​mango yoghurt milkshake. Great quality. Great service. Although I happened to be in the area I live 30+ km away and would still come back. the prices were a little steep but still very worth it.

I’ve only had the green tea milk shake from there, and my husband usually gets the taro milk shake (both with tapioca). They are extremely delicious!!! I think if they fixed up the shop a bit, maybe change the layout so they can add some seating, it would be nice and more appealing. I normally wouldn’t have gone to a shop that lacks visual appearance, but I saw on Unilocal that they were good. And they definitely were good! But they might get even more business if they could do something with the shop.

I love their bubble tea but don’t come to this location. They say to close at 8pm but instead it close at 7pm but I did come at 645pm twice and they still gave the gate close and when I asked the attendant she just told me that is closed. I will keep going to PM and Scarborough location as they follow their schedule

Fruit Jungle is the best place to get bbt (well usually bubble juice)! I usually frequent the FMP location after grabbing some food from the food court or if I’m in the area. If you’re at FMP, skip the fancy ads at all the other bbt places in the food court and check out fruit jungle at the edge of the mall near the jerky and korean ginseng place. I believe it’s at the most West exit of the mall.
You can pretty much order anything and you’ll be pleasantly surprised… I usually mix 2 of the fruits depending on my mood, which usually includes: strawberry, mango, avocado, pear or papaya. Their original milk tea is also pretty good but I usually opt for a fruit drink since no one else is as good with them.
The drinks are around $ 5, depending on size and how many flavours you mix. You can also get 10% off if you have the VIP card, I got mine years ago by spending $ 10 more in one shot, and they give you a huge stack if you cater with them for an event (such as a wedding). You can probably ask about how to get one and enjoy lifetime 10% discount. Unfortunately it’s cash only!
Highlights
Pros: best tasting drinks, consistently good bubbles
Cons: Never open at night (closes around 7:30−8pm every day)
My Summer Drink: Mango Papaya Large with bubbles
My Winter Drink: Hot Pear juice

I was a bit skeptical when I first saw the store: it’s a bit jank with hand — written signs/​Microsoft Word ’95 type drink descriptions and located in a small plot on the far right side of the mall. But I figured I’d give it a try since it had so many positive reviews and i’m sure glad I did! Their mango lychee bubble tea was superb! I had to wait a few hours before I could try it but even then the texture was super smooth and the mango well blended with the lychee. The bubbles were still soft and chewy throughout even though they’d been sitting in the cold liquid for a while. I’d definately get it again!

I’ll be short and sweet on this one — Fruit Jungle serves one of my fave bubble teas and fruit smoothies in the GTA! Beats out the popular spots like Tenren and Chatime. Their smoothies are creamier and they use real fruit so it’s a healthier option too!
It’s worth the drive through Hwy. 7 traffic and First Markham Place parking. Additional plus is that it’s next door to Oriental Recipes and Ding Tai Fung.
Only downsides: it’s cash only, and no seating to enjoy my drink. But I can live with that! Definitely coming back…

While walking around First Markham Place, we came across Fruit Jungle.
Immediately, the crazy amount of hand written signs everywhere grabbed our attention. A sign reading «100% Natural Juice, No Powder, No Artificial Flavors» locked us in.
The employees were very sweet and incredibly hard working. Ordered a Watermelon Lychee Bubble Tea w/​Lychee Jelly. It took some time to prepare. This bubble tea was worth the wait.
With my first sip, I was blown away. My cousins loved their bubble tea choices as well. We were shocked (not sure why) at how good it was. Super fresh, clean, light, not too sweet and flavorful. The tapioca balls had a perfect chew to them and were slightly sweet.
In addition to bubble teas, they also offer a number of affordable snacks. The friendly customer service plus excellent drinks makes me a huge fan of Fruit Jungle.
Party in your mouth!
