The only Bubble tea I've had was at the Bubble House in University city in Philadelphia. Good stuff, plus they have the best sweet potato fries with tangy Orange Ginger Sauce..

I live in a tri-city, and in Waterloo, there is a very LARGE Asian population (because of the University of Waterloo, famous for math, engineering and computer science; internationally recognized as a leading science university blah blah blah--Bill Gates actually hires more students from Waterloo than any university in the world). Anyway.

Because of the large Asian population in Waterloo, you can get bubble tea everywhere. It's pretty awesome.

Bubble tea

The black things in the bottom are tapioca.

We rate bubble tea places in Waterloo based on the firmness of the pearls.

The "bubble" in bubble tea doesn't refer to the black tapioca pearls. It refered to the bubbles floating on the top after it was shaken.

The Chinese name for bubble tea translates to "Pearl milk tea" (Chinese: 珍珠奶茶; pinyin: zhēnzhū nǎichá). When tea is shaken, a thin layer of bubbles forms on the surface. Because of the foaming process, any tea that is shaken during preparation can be called bubble tea. "Foam black tea" (Traditional Chinese: 泡沫紅茶; Simplified Chinese: 泡沫红茶; pinyin: pàomò hóngchá; literally "bubble black tea") and "foam green tea" (Traditional Chinese: 泡沫綠茶; Simplified Chinese: 泡沫绿茶; pinyin: pàomò lǜchá; literally "bubble green tea") are also common drinks made by shaking sweetened tea. After pearl milk tea was brought to non-Asian countries, it was given the name "bubble tea." Since the most notable difference between bubble tea and other tea is the tapioca at the bottom of the drink, some assumed that the "bubble" in "bubble tea" referred to the tapioca. The pearls in "pearl milk tea," however, do refer to the tapioca "pearls."
