Okay so I decided on a date and wanted to see who can make it.
We are going to meet on Wednesday, July 6th at The Street Cafe, on the Northwest corner of Southern ave and Dobson Rd. (caddy corner to Mesa Community College) at 730 pm.

I'm taking action on behalf of ASU_LEE

 

Initial thread

Directions

Bubble tea is also known as boba drink, pearl tea drink, boba ice tea, boba, boba nai cha, zhen zhou nai cha, pearl milk tea, pearl ice tea, black pearl tea, tapioca ball drink, BBT, PT, pearl shake, QQ (which means chewy in Chinese) and possible many others.





Bubble drinks are usually cool, refreshing, and a sweet drink with tapioca pearls sitting on the bottom of a clear cup. Sometimes the drink is made with fresh fruits, milk, and crushed ice to create a healthy milk shake. You can also find drinks that are made of powdered flavoring, creamer, water, and crushed ice. And if you like it like the Asians do, the cool drink usually includes a healthy tea, infused by a flavoring.

Tapioca pearls are black, but can sometimes be found to be white or transparent. Depending on the ingredients of the pearl, the color varies. I've been told that the white and translucent pearls are made of caramel, starch and chamomile root extract. The black pearl includes sweet potato, cassava root and brown sugar, which add the black color.

The consistency of tapioca pearls are somewhere between jell-o and chewing gum. They are the size of a marble. They are also known as the "boba" drink in Western China because it is described as to having the same texture as the female breasts.

A clear cup with black balls on the bottom can easily identify bubble Tea drinks. Another obvious trait is a huge fat straw. The fat straw is needed so that the tapioca pearls can be sucked up with the drink and eaten. Bubble Tea's appearance definitely makes it unique.

One thing is for certain. Bubble Tea is not a fad. It's a trend. This drink is addictive. If you've had a good one before then you know what we're talking abou

If you still dont know what is going on then I have no idea on how to help you, I suggest you call the first person on your phone list repeatedly at 212am and ask for the Baby Maker.

 

For those who have tried boba, you may also know it as phlem balls. You can produce it internally - particularly after you've partaken in some sort of dairy beverage...

okay so I want to waste bandwidth.... so heres the free bump.

 

what's a bump?

Is that the stuff at the bottom of the boba

What's funny is when we went to the S2ki.com HQ meet in March we went on the Boba hunt and it took us like 2 hours to find the place in San Diego, it wasn't at the location in the phone book and no one knew where it was. When we got there it was pouring down rain, and Wil got two of them with dinner only an hour off. It looked like little rat droppings in the bottom of the cup - yum

Looking at my calendar, I am in Tucson that night or I would be there...doh.

 

Crappola....
I'm going have to bail on this one. I totally forgot that my Summer school class starts on the 6th.. freakin idiot

 

I'm going and I will set up another night. New thread to follow.

Was in Vegas all last week......I am all vegas'd out.

YES! We need one more thread on this.
