Pearl milk tea

Pearl milk tea, also known as bubble tea, is a popular beverage originating from Taiwan. It consists of a flavorful sweet tea combined with milk or a milk substitute, creating a creamy base. The drink is characterized by the addition of chewy tapioca pearls—small, round balls made from tapioca starch—that are scooped into the cup and enjoyed with a wide straw. The combination of smooth tea, dairy, and chewy pearls offers a unique textural contrast and customizable flavors, making it a refreshing and enjoyable treat enjoyed worldwide.
