5 More Things Only Bubble Tea Fans Know

1 – Do you know the straw trick?

Piercing the sealed top of a bubble tea with your straw can be a messy affair. With a splash of boba potentially going in any direction and an occasional tapioca pearl being impaled by the end of your straw, you may have thought there must be a better way.

Well, look no further. By holding your thumb over one end of your straw and piercing the film with the other in one sharp motion you can avoid the hassle and mess. Impress your friends with your flawless boba skills and prove yourself a bubble tea master.

2 – Taro tea is slept on

In the arena of bubble tea flavours, one is often overlooked. Taro tea is an exquisitely tasting bubble tea contrasting soft jasmine with the sweetness of classic pearls, this is a flavour not to be missed. Because of its soft colours and departure from classic boba, many bubble tea fans have missed out on this. But this is a big mistake. Get in on some Taro tea action and you won't be disappointed!

3 – Fresh milk v Powdered creamer

A rookie mistake is to think that all bubble tea is made with fresh milk. Fresh milk can be a great addition to a creamy classic milk tea. But, often creamer is added instead. Because of this the level of sweetness and taste can be tailored to your delight. Know the difference, and know what to ask for.

4 – Bubble tea is gluten free

Gluten-free? It's important to know what you can and can't have. So it's good to know that the vast majority of bubble tea is gluten-free. Break it down ingredient by ingredient and make sure you understand what you're consuming, but rest assured that there's a boba out there for you.

5 – Matcha tea for a healthy twist

Matcha tea is a great base for your boba if you're looking for a healthy twist. It's no secret that bubble tea isn't the healthiest drink around. So, adding matcha to your bubble tea is a great way to boost the health benefits of your boba. The health benefits of matcha tea are well known and are good to know for any boba fan.
