A
boba drink (also known as
black perl tea or
bubble tea) is a sort of
smoothie like
concoction with pieces of
chewy tapioca pieces in
it. They usually are made of
tea or
juice and
milk,
fruit syrup,
ice, and small bits of tapioca.
It first became very
popular in
Taiwan, and then spread to
China,
Singapore, and the
Philippines. The large
Asian community in
Vancouver brought it
north, and then it
migrated down to
New York and several other
US cities. Finally, it arrived at college campuses in
Seattle,
San Fransisco, and
Los Angeles. Very popular in southern
California.
