Milk tea, a popular beverage enjoyed worldwide, has an interesting origin story. One of the most famous varieties, bubble tea (or boba tea), originated in Taiwan in the 1980s. It combines brewed tea with milk or cream and is often served with chewy tapioca pearls or other toppings.
Bubble tea became a global phenomenon due to its unique texture and customizable flavors. The original version used black tea, but variations now include green tea, oolong tea, and a range of flavorings, from fruit syrups to matcha. The distinctive texture of the tapioca pearls, which are made from cassava root, contributes to its widespread popularity.
