Honestly, bubble tea is alright but nothing spectacular.
The lumps of tapioca are mostly flavorless.

>> No.4700532

>>4700506

If they're flavorless the tea shop sucks. Try another one.
Also, dat texture.

Avacado slush with tapioca~

>> No.4700556

Like biting in to little rubber balls. The drinks alone are good but I rather see them use the smaller white tapioca balls.

Indeed. They're supposed to be subtly sweet.

Nope. Taro tastes like the milk after Fruity Pebbles. Search your heart. You know this to be true.

The bubble tea places tend to make an alright iced Thai tea.

They always ask about boba and I really want to slap them. Thai people almost never put Boba in Iced Thai Tea. Then I realize I am bitching about a drink and I just let it go.
