Use milk without any tea for an extra creamy taste.Then, add everything into the glass with the syrup boba. If you want to have a foamy effect, add the tea, syrup, milk and ice in a shaker and shake for 6 seconds.You can have it with 50%, 30% or zero sugar you can choose how much ice there is and you can have no topping or all the toppings you desire. One of the best things about boba/bubble tea is how customisable each drink can be.

He decided to mix it with tea and created ‘pearl tea’. The other story is from another tea room, the Hanlin Tea Room of Tainan, the southern part of Taiwan, where the owner said he was inspired when he saw white tapiocas on sale in a local market. Then one day, during a staff meeting, his product development manager poured some prepared tapioca balls into her drink and the very first boba tea was born. One story says the owner of the Chun Shui Tang tea room, a tea house in central Taiwan city Taichung, claimed he got the idea of serving cold tea when he noticed coffee being served cold while on a visit in Japan.
