Bubble Tea Both Weird and Wonderful

Bubble Tea Strange New Tea Drink its Half Drink And Half Dessert Have You Tried it Yet ?

Weary of the latest fad coffees? trendy herbal teas and ice cream concoctions well maybe your in luck as something very different is hitting the streets It’s bubble tea. A little odd to look at I admit the first time you see it looks like the drinker is attempting to slurp frog spawn through a vividly colored liquid this bizarre drink also goes by the names boba, pearl tea, milk tea, or boba tea. It’s more like a dessert or a snack than a drink, it’s definitely unique experience; traditional bubble tea was a milky honey sweetened tea drink that masked a layer of chewy tapioca balls at the bottom of the glass served either hot or iced is as far a departure from the plain-looking tea you are familiar with. As well as the original it is available in every flavor you can think of, try it you might like it

Bubble tea in its original form was an import from Taiwan; traditional bubble tea is a honey sweetened milky tea drink that covers a layer of gummy tapioca balls that lie at the bottom of the cup served either hot or over ice, is so unlike tea the way we ordinarily see it, its hard to believe its tea at all. And in fact some bubble teas now are not made with real tea. Though traditionally all were made with a real tea base Bubble tea has evolved in that many do not even contain tea they are made from an extensive range of flavoring powders, and syrups in a wide variety of flavors and colors, you can even buy bubble tea kits to make the drink at home the only thing you then have to do is master the skill of cooking the tapioca pearls for bubble tea in your own kitchen which sometimes for some, is a challenge as the cooking of tapioca to exactly the right degree of chewiness for the bubble tea is an art form all to itself.
