I Love These Black Balls In My Mouth

[Ertragen]

They are delicious!



They are called Boba. Boba is a flavored drink with small round black tapioca jelly balls at the bottom. They are chewy and you drink them up while you drink the flavored drink as well. Bobas are sold as milk teas, smoothies, slushies.

"Boba"

NO, not Boba Fett

And not this either.

Yes they are very tasty & sweaty at times .

Hmmmm...that sounds really gross. LOL

Maybe it's something you have to try. I don't think I would like it, though...I have a huge problem w/ sprinkles, so these jelly ball thingies probably wouldn't sit well w/ me either.

 

[JanieDough]

they are tapioca pearls = sometimes called bubble tea

you can also get jellies in your drink at some places. (like jello)

i go to a place here called fruiti smoothie. You can get those tapioca pearls and/or jelly with your choice of over 63 juice flavors....it's amazing....

Sure they're not some sort of Anime porn?

 

[Thornless]

I love them too!

actually it's called pearl only as a gimmick at one shop in the entire county here.

Every store calls them "Boba" It is a chinese word.

You mean Hentai. Anime is just cartoons and Hentai is porn,...er... not that I would know.

Hmmmm...that sounds really gross. LOL

Go in with an open mind. Now go find a Boba shop and order some and put your lips around the extra THICK straw they give you, SUCK, them into your MOUTH, chew, and SWALLOW.

Ah yes Bubble Tea....

 

[Ertragen]

Ah yes Bubble Tea....

no not bubble tea. Boba tea

say it with me... Boba Tea

not bubble nooooot bubble grrrrr

Trust me, you do google image search for "Boba" and you'll see those.
Boba is a chinese word. I'm not gonna tell ya you gotta go ask a chinese person what it means.
It is a chinese orienated drink. So it would make sense for it to be Boba rather than Pearl.

On TV Anthony Bourdain called it Bubble Tea. He bought it from a Korean place in Jersey though.

Eh, everyone knows Wiki has errors. It's probably another mistake. AND Boba isn't from Korea. It's from China.

:-O you mean you swing both ways?

[JanieDough]

It's not a no no. It's actually good to add jelly as extra for fruity smoothie drinks.
