Fruit flavors are good if they know how to make it. I like watermelon along with the traditional.

I dunno exactly what you mean by bubble teas:confused:

I don't usually like fruit flavored teas but, I really really like Republic of Tea's Mango Ceylon it is freaking awesome but, kind of expensive, still much cheaper than soda though

Bubble tea is an Asian drink..

It's sweetened cold tea with tapioca pearls at the bottom of the cup that you suck up through a real big straw.

It's good stuff..

did you know that boba's translation in chinese means busty as in having large breasts?

That's why some people call it pearls instead of boba :)

Whatever you do, DO NOT HAVE THE GREEN TEA for your bubble tea. That crap is lethal. :disgust:

I like Lover's Tea, which is basically tea and coffee.

BTW, anyone in NYC know if there are any bubble tea places near Columbia University?

I agree with you. I get my tea from Adagio Teas.

A lot of people say it depends on the flavor. I like almond, mocha, thai tea..... There are a lot of great flavors. Just stay away from starfruit- its way too sour.

If you are in los angeles, go to a teazone. Or ask your nearest asian (no offense intended) neighboor where one is. Oh, btw, if it makes any difference, I am asian and LA (I have relatives in LA) has many great places for bubble tea (or boba [bow-buh] pearl drink, etc).

Bubble tea????? Sigh. I want to punch whomever made up that term in the neck.
