Have
you ever heard about bubble tea? Bubble tea is a drink that people
make, that involves fruit like, strawberries, green apple, mango,
watermelon and lots more. Two unusual flovors that people order are coffee and
vinegar. Many other names that people call bubble tea are, pearl drink, milk tea, and boba. At the bottom of the drink
there are these black pearls that are chewy and sweet. They are
called tapioca pearl and people usually order them in there smoothies.
Many people in America call them boba. Boba was originated in Taiwan in
a small island in Southeast Asia and has been a favorite hangout
activities to do out of school. Some people call it bubble tea because
of
the boba at the bottom, but really its because of the foam at the
bottom of the cup.
How boba is made is by getting a pot and fill it up
with water, then you add the boba, which you can buy at stores, and
stir frequently so the boba doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot and
burn. Because of how large the pearl is, you can’t use a normal straw,
the drink usually come with fat straws to allow the boba to travel up the straw. You
can find bubble tea in mnay places like New York, Philly, Chinatown, and California and anywhere else. You can also get
it in malls but some malls don’t have any so it may be a little difficult to find
bubble tea in a regular American mall. Many people enjoy bubble tea
because of its sweet taste and the chewy texture and it is not that
expensive to buy, most of them cost one to two dollars on how popular the
flavor is.
So now you know what boba is, would you like to try it now?
