anyone else tried this before?


this past weekend, when i was visiting the LOVELY Chapel Hill (NC), i tried one of these little tea/fusion drinks. this is the description:
Bubble Tea is a tea or fruit based smoothie. Tapioca Pearls are added to the drink, which are sucked up through an oversized straw along with your drink. Tapioca Pearls are always optional.

has anyone tried one of these? i'm not a fan of tapioca in real life, but this was such a fun drink - not too sweet/not too bland - and i really like the texture of the tapioca "pearls" - mine were chocolate-flavored. mmmmmm......

the thought of this makes me want to puke. I hate tapioca and "tapioca pearls" sounds nas-ty. However, some other type of pearls would be delightful. So yea for new drinks!

This sounds awesome! I don't even like cold tea, but I would be willing to try this. At my favorite tea spot here, I order "pudding milk tea" which sounds like the hot version of this drink. Delicious! If you were to buy a condo in C-bus, you could drink them regularly...
