For people who don't know what bubble tea is:
Bubble teas are generally of two distinct types: fruit-flavored teas, and milkteas. Most milk teas include powdered dairy or non-dairy creamers. Other varieties are 100% crushed-fruit smoothies with pearls (BOBA) and signature ice cream shakes made from local ice cream sources. Bubblez Express also sells "milk smoothies," which are similar to bubble t
ea but do not contain any tea ingredients. Bubblz Express is a juice/ smoothie bar with an oriental touch to it. The difference between this and a normal juice or smoothie is the inclusion of (boba) tapioca pearls. This drink is also known as a bubble tea. Bubble Tea/BOBA History! Bubble tea, was originated from Taiwan , in a small island located in Southeast Asia . Tapioca had long been a traditional dessert and it was a chanced invention by a small vendor outside of a school. He added tapioca balls to shaken iced tea to attract students and it had been an instant success. This new beverage concept had been wildly popular and quickly spread throughout the island and subsequently, the Asian community around the world. There's always been a misconception about bubble tea, which is the more well known term in the US . Many people mistook the term bubble to the tapioca balls on the bottom of the cup. However, “bubble” really refers to the bubble foam on the top of the tea after the tea is vigorously shaken to enhance its flavor. Boba, also known as tapioca pearls or tapioca balls, is derived from the starch of the cassava root. When cooked perfectly, Boba becomes a sweet chewy ball with a gummy-bear like texture about 1/4 of an inch in diameter. There are many names for Boba. Originally, Boba drinks were called tapioca milk tea (or tapioca tea latte) or pearl milk tea. When it was introduced in Hong Kong, the locals called it Boba instead of Pearl because of its shape. Boba literally means Big Pearls. Boba can be added to any drink: milk tea, icy, smoothies, juice and coffee. When boba is added to the tea, it adds a different texture to the creamy and smooth tea base. Boba is chewy, almost like gummy bears, but softer. When combined with the tea. It adds a fun twist to the drink. Because the size of the tapioca balls is larger than your typical straws, bubble tea drinks usually come with fat straws to allow Boba, or tapioca, to travel through.
