Boba Tea Austin: 10 Best Bubble Tea Houses And Shops

September 25, 2021 by Mirella Gonzales Leave a Comment

While smoothies are refreshing and great to use as a meal replacement, why not switch it up with a different drink like boba from time to time? If you haven’t thought of this idea, the boba tea Austin has to offer is plenty, allowing you to take a break from a smoothie anytime.

What is Boba?

Boba, also known as bubble tea, refers to the tapioca pearls that are placed in the drink. Most bubble tea is made by layering the boba in the tea that has been made with milk or creams. Once you get a tapioca pearl from your straw, you chew it along with the bubble tea.

What is the best Boba Tea flavor?

Boba Tea flavors are never-ending. The most popular flavors are Taro, Matcha, Honeydew, or Thai milk tea.

Where can I get the best Boba Tea in Austin?
