Is this the most inconsistent beverage on the planet?
It can range from
>unsweetened tea with milk
>sweetened tea with milk
>milkshake
>ice slushie
with the only common element being the tapioca. Why aren't there different names for each type? I take a gamble every time I order from a new place that I might get a pure sugar slushie.

Is it that hard to ask the vendor a question? Are you made of spaghetti?

I've seen places that offer it with different types of jelly candies or flavored popping "bubbles" with syrup inside, so even the tapioca isn't consistent.

At this point it's pretty much just a drink that has soft candies in it that you can suck up through a big straw.

Large iced coffee milk tea with almond jelly and coffee jelly if they have that, not all places do. Medium sweet.

It's amazing how so few Asians get diabetes with such a sweet tooth.
