+1. I hate the texture of the pearls. I think I would like some of the half sugar tea drinks PPs are mentioning, but I just don't do boba.


The boba are completely optional and an added cost over the drink itself. No need to get boba.


Super valid to get flavored sweet tea if you don't like tapioca or any of the jellies but aren't those the things that make it it bubble tea as opposed to tea?


I get it without boba most of the time and the name police have not come after me yet.

Think of it as tea with noodles like the comedian called it (can’t remember who and google was no help)! I guess I was predisposed to like bubble tea because I’ve always like tapioca pudding and while the scale is different, the texture is the same.

no, bubble refers to the bubbles that form when the tea is shaken. with or without pearls

DD and friends like the sweet green tea versions with popping bobas (those are all sugar) and tapioca balls (those do not have sugar but are starchy) in flavors like mango. Yes they are a dessert treat and have a bit of caffeine.

I like black tea milk style with tapioca only, at a minimal sugar percentage (the place I go to really nails this sugar adjustment by percentages) and I get flavors like lavender.

Basically instead of Starbucks drinks. Some tea places also serve coffee.


I think of it as instead of ice cream or some other treat with my kid, usually after a busy errand day or when we want to run out for some 1-1 time.

Bubble tea describes a drink with tapioca pearls. They can be sweet or not sweet. I like mine with just tea and no sugar. You can get a very sweet one or one with little or no sugar.

Moge Tee lets you choose sugar level- zero, 30%, 50%, 75% or full.
