Bubble চা shops are popping up all over the place - in malls, on corners, and anywhere else thirsty teens tend to gather. Bubble tea, also called pearl দুধ চা অথবা boba tea, originated in Taiwan and has become a worldwide sipping - and chewing - phenomenon.
But what is bubble চা anyway? Take a cup, plop in a handful of round, gelatinous pearls of tapioca, শীর্ষ it with brewed black অথবা green tea, mix in some milk, sugar, flavouring, and ice. Then shake it all up, and you've got yourself a bubble tea.
Oddly enough, the "bubbles" in bubble চা are not those starchy tapioca pearls, which are similar to the little black spheres of cassava you'd find in tapioca pudding. No, the "bubble" comes from the way the drink bubbles up when it is shaken. In fact, the first bubble চা didn't contain tapioca pearls at all.
