Tempo's 9th Birthday
Happy birthday Tempo! Tempo turned 9 years old last month.🥳 The whole team celebrated with a trip to Mikaku. There were 16 of us so well done to Mikaku staff for dealing with all of us. If you have never been to Mikaku I would highly recommend the sweet & soy sesame chicken wings. 🍗 They are soooooo delicious. Don’t order tonkotsu around your asian friend though because they will call you basic (I’m still upset Joey). 🥲 Some new team members were introduced and weekday crew reunited with weekend crew. Overall a wonderful time with some lovely cake at the end! 🎂
If you were in on the weekend of the 8th-9th then you will have received one of our Tempo goodie bags. This included a reusable bottle, hi-chew, loose leaf tea, badges and a bubble tea in a can! 😋 Our customers just had to share our birthday post on Instagram to claim their bag. 🎁
Large Container Shipment
If you have been reading this newsletter since January then you’ll remember the infamous container shipment that took hours to unload. 📦 In the snow as well! This time it was less dramatic. 👀
Also this time I had an Apple watch so I was able to put it on workout mode which is very exciting. Yes it is exciting actually! 💪
Our youngest Oliwia was there for this one. Absolutely loving it! 💕 When I asked Oliwia how she was feeling 45 minutes in, she said ‘‘I want to cry’’. Tears of joy no doubt! 😭
In the container were classic bobas, cups, syrups and some new boba flavours! 🤩 Want to know what new flavours we got? Stay tuned! We are expecting to launch them in-store and online very soon... 👀
Halloween
BOO! Haha got you! 👻
Halloween weekend was celebrated in full force at Tempo. We decorated the shop with loads of bats, pumpkins and other sinister decorations. 🦇 We dressed up mainly as vampire victims, graphic, bloody eyeliner people and a cat! 🐈⬛
This Halloween, we also hopped in to try the ghost trend on TikTok! 👻 Don't worry, we did this when the shop was closed. We didn't want our dear customers running off after seeing our extremely spooky Halloween outfit. 😇
We even launched a special drink for the whole of October. The Jack O’Lantern! 🎃 A spooky blend of citrus and tropical flavours, topped with Blueberry popping boba and layered with activated charcoal and sparkle. ✨
