Hokkaido Milk Tea with coconut jelly, boba with a cream cheese topping is my fav 👌🏾🧋

awesome video! oxidised and fermented are used interchangeable in tea discourse due to the translation but gets a bit different when it comes to processing. black and oolong use oxidation in processing, black being fully oxidised and oolong being some spectrum of semi-oxidation, while actual fermentation is used in the processing of puer/puerh-pu-er.

Bubble tea used to be dismal here in Toronto when I was a child (flavoured powder), but once Cha Time came onto the scene and brought quality to an otherwise lackluster BBT industry, it's only proliferated and grew with a bunch of new international and homegrown chains. Now you can't turn a corner without accidentally stepping into 5 different BBT stores

I was always told that Bobba Ni Cha meant “Huge Breasted Milk Tea” when we lived in Tainan in the late-90s.

My favorite milktea has KitKat on top.

"The tea wild west..." I'm here for that.

Really nicely done and I learned a lot. I lived there a year and had 3 a day sometimes. Lol

Two things I don’t understand about bobba:
1) what’s with all the plastic wrappings?!
2) those things are so high in sugar I get fat looking at them!
