In celebration of the July 4th holiday, It’s Boba Time Colton honored the city’s first responders with a special catered meal at the Colton Fire Department. The event, held in the days leading up to Independence Day, was a heartfelt show of appreciation for the firefighters’ dedication and service to the community.

To make the occasion memorable, It’s Boba Time partnered with a local catering company to serve freshly made tacos, while the boba shop provided their signature drinks—offering a perfect pairing of bold flavors and cool refreshments.

“We wanted to give back in a meaningful way and show our gratitude to the Colton Fire Department,” said the owner of It’s Boba Time Colton. “They’re always on duty, always ready—this was a small gesture to say thank you.”

Firefighters enjoyed the flavorful taco spread alongside a variety of handcrafted boba drinks, creating a festive and relaxing moment before the busy holiday period.

The Colton Fire Department expressed their appreciation for the thoughtful gesture, highlighting how meaningful community support is—especially around holidays when many are working instead of spending time with loved ones.

 

It’s Boba Time Colton continues to show its commitment to the local community by supporting those who protect and serve, one cup—and taco—at a time
