8/16 Update: Tiger Sugar Rockville announced on its social media that the Grand Opening will take place on August 28th from 11:30am-10pm.
Early in July we let you know that Tiger Sugar, a boba/bubble tea spot known for is brown sugar bubble tea with unique “tiger stripe” design, would be coming to Rockville.
Tiger Sugar will be taking over the old Jamba Juice location at 12266E in Federal Plaza.
We spoke with owner Steve Keon last night who let us know that Tiger Sugar is aiming for an August 28th opening date, pending inspections. Those familiar with MoCo know the process can take longer than anticipated, but the late August date is currently the goal.
More information on Tiger Sugar, per the website:
The original brown sugar bubble tea with fresh cream and a unique tiger stripe design. Others have tried to imitate, but can’t compare to the quality and care that goes into our 8-hour preparation.
The Birth of a Tiger With humble beginnings in Taichung, Taiwan, in 2017, Tiger Sugar has grown into an undisputed cult brand of Boba worldwide. Our drinks not only taste good but tell our unique story with “tiger stripes” that are infused onto all our drinks with unique hand-poured syrups. They say imitation is the best form of flattery. Many companies have tried to replicate our drinks, but our tried and proven methods stand the test of time. We use a proprietary 8-hour method for cooking our syrups and tapioca pearls. This results in the perfect marriage of tea, milk, and syrup in every sip. Our brand is bold, and our unforgettable drink varieties are a testament to this.

7/8 Update: Tiger Sugar expects to open in mid-August, per owner Steve Kwon
Tiger Sugar, a boba/bubble tea spot known for is brown sugar bubble tea with unique “tiger stripe” design, is coming to Rockville.
Tiger Sugar will be taking over the old Jamba Juice location at 12266E in Federal Plaza.
The store’s Instagram account currently lists a Summer ‘21 opening timeframe and we spoke with owner Steve Kwon back in late May who told us that the store will be “opening in less than 60 days,” which would mean at some point before July 27th. Opening dates can be tricky, so we’ll have an update once an actual date is confirmed.

Signage for Crumbl Cookies was added recently to a storefront in Rockville’s Federal Plaza. Crumbl Cookies is a nationwide bakery franchise that offers different freshly baked cookies each week. They sell chocolate chip and sugar cookies every day, but the rest of their offerings rotate. Their flavors range from experimental (watermelon chilled sugar cookie), to cookie twists on classic desserts (peach cobbler cookie), to more traditional cookies (peanut butter brownie cookie, pictured here).
It does not seem like Crumbl will open anytime soon– the Crumbl website announced their new stores opening in July and the upcoming Rockville location was not included yet.
