A number of the YAA crew have been frequenting a local bubble tea store before our committee meetings recently. *atomic, the creation of entrepreneurial siblings Jessica and Russel Bohrson, has a menu full of creative bubble tea combinations (hot and cold), sandwiches, and salads. I was able to try out a new addition to the menu just this week – the Mangoberry Colada. It was a combination of the Strawberry Mango and the Pinatomic Colada, and although I can’t speak to either of those, the Mangoberry Colada lovechild was super tasty.
Aside from their great menu, *atomic boasts a successful appearance on Dragon’s Den, obtaining a $120,000 investment. And if you’ve watched Dragon’s Den before, you’ll know that’s no easy task. You can watch the episode here and the follow-up here.
This little local wonder has taken full advantage of our favourite social networking sites – Twitter and Facebook – and even have their own blog, offering occasional discounts for followers and fans. For Halloween, they offered 10% off for any customers in full costume.
They’ve got to locations in dowtown Calgary for you to check out: one just north of 7th ave on 1st street S.W., and the other on 13th ave and 1st street, so give it a shot. Curl up with an *atomic hot tea on a cold day, or just check out their menu here.

"you like *atomic."
Yes, I most definitely do.
We should get the YAA group to go down there before or after a meeting.
I am all for that idea. They are amazing. <3
