Boba originated in Taiwan but is extremely popular all over asian communities, like in Hong Kong, Mainland China, even Korea and alllllll over California and other high population of asian-cities in the US.

Yeah, Bubble Tea is the Canadian name for it. Everyone around here just calls it Boba.
The profit margin on this stuff has to be utterly absurd.

Than I shall call it the drink of Boba Fett....
Awesome guide, I might try this I do have a rice cooker and home that is close to being a steamer I think.
|
I work at a bubble tea shop called Serissa Cate, and I must say making bubble tea yourself is really fun! However for a good bubble tea, I think the tea is equally as important as the tapioca, they both have to be good!

hmmm...i never had bubble tea, but a local restaurant started selling it recently...is it that good?

In most bakeries around here its mainly the black pearl tea, never drank it myself. Or milk tea in that case, I'll stick to cold coffee or lemon tea. D:
|
now give me the recipe for frozen yogurt and we're all goooood.
i made it once without the right pearls, they were clear/white instead of black. it was really weird.

Frozen yogurt is just plain white yogurt with the ingredients you like and either liquid sugar or honey to add sweetness. then you just chill it in the freezer... you can get creative and it still won't be too bad
|
A lot of places make the worst bubble tea its just overly sweetened tea with really poorly made bubbles, for proper bubble tea you have to find a good place, standard stores in asian suburbs like Tapioca Express and Quickly's make the good stuff.

Posting here so I can find it later. Never heard of it before but sounds delicious

Is it possible to substitute honey for the brown sugar? Having something to sweeten the tapioca is pretty essential for this.
|
I've always been too lazy to do this, I have an asian friend that's willing to do it for us xD

Well where I live (in canada), there are more bubble tea places than there are stores in a mall.
