As temperatures soar this season, one drink is bubbling to the top as the go-to cooler—boba tea.
Whether you’re strolling through the city or relaxing with friends, this sweet and creamy drink, known for its chewy tapioca pearls, is winning hearts as a refreshing companion in the heat.

Bubble tea, also known as boba tea, originated in Taiwan during the 1980s. While the exact inventor remains unclear, the most popular stories credit either Liu Han-chieh, who served iced tea at his teahouse, or Tu Tsung-ho, who experimented with tapioca pearls.
Made with a blend of black tea, milk, sweetener, ice, and those signature tapioca pearls, this drink has since become a global sensation.
But no bubble tea session is complete without the perfect bite on the side. Whether you’re ordering from a popular boba brand or making it at home, try these irresistible snacks that perfectly complement every sip.
