Bubble Tea or Boba Tea?

Where I come from, bubble tea or boba was mostly unheard of. It's getting quite popular at the moment here as bubble tea stores have started opening up one by one and the people have started getting a taste for it, myself included! I feel as if I have gotten addicted to the chewy awesomeness of the tapioca pearls. I was always a lover of tea and iced teas so this was not too hard for me.

The texture and premise of having things floating in your drink was off putting at first but it quickly few upon me. The chewyness of the pearls made it fun and before I knew it, the delicious drink was finished!

I tried a few flavours, my favourite being the mocha and the brown sugar milk tea. The mocha had chunks of brownies in it while the brown sugar milk tea had lots of caramelised tapioca pearls and a caramel sauce within it. The mocha is basically a smoothie at that point though. These were so addicting and delicious!

I think my most favorite of the two now, is the brown sugar milk tea. The look of the drink along is stunning! I love the way the milk tea blends with the molasses/ caramel syrup and tapioca pearls to create a beautiful and artful clouds of deliciousness.
