The "bubbles" refer to the tapioca balls in the bottom of the tea. It's just called "bubble tea" around here. I live in Vancouver BC which has a heavy Asian population so Bubble tea and sushi joints are everywhere.

[Yokuutsu]

Oh. Okay then. No one before would explain to me what bubble tea was .-.

We have white people. We have black people. And random few of Mexicans/Asians/Etc. We segregate ourselves....pretty much >> <<

The standard ratio for milk tea is 50/50, but some places will let you choose to have more of one or the other.

My favorite tea bar does boba in their smoothies, too. I even saw rainbow tapioca pearls at my favorite Asian market the last time I was there. That made me so happy!

My tea collection has actually pretty extensive but my very favorite is a black tea with rose petals and buds called "Queen of Hearts." It's by the Republic of Tea

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Well, I have to sat that Chai through a Tim Tam is one of the more interesting things I tried.

On that note, I also made some milk teas, 50/50 the other day because I didn't want it strong, and I just put the milk in the hot tea but didn't stir. The result was this sorta warm on the bottom, cool on the top drink. Kinda fascinating.

It works well if you use a margarita shaker.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Uhhh, margarita shaker? With tea?

[Reyoki]

The tumbler thingy. Whatever the thing you mid it in is called.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Oh yeah, I know what a martini shaker is, just wasn't sure what you were referring to. You mean for stirring? I thought it was neat because without stirring the temperature hadn't equalized yet so it make for a funky sensation when sipping.

[Reyoki]

Yup, that's what I mean. You put the ice in it, too. That's now the folks at my favorite tea bar do it, and their stuff is extremely yummy.

I like coffee with a hint of vanilla in it.
I do not like to drink it straight from the pot without any sweetener. Tea is alright though I don't like tea in resturants because to me it tastes wierd. But if its tea then I like it minty. It really helps out with colds.
So I guess I am more of a coffee person.

A tea thread ? Oh my !
I had no idea where to start posting but I think this is a brilliant spot . x3

I'm kind of new here I guess , and a horrendous tea addict . xD
The first kind of tea I don't like , I still have to come across . ^_^;;

[Caramel Flan]

I only like Lipton Green Tea and any brand of lemon tea.
>w<.

[johnny]

I love chai tea, regular ol' Earl Grey, ice/sweet tea, and green tea.

I don't get a lot of variety where I live, but on the other side of town there is an amaaaazing tea store in the mall that I want to go on a shopping spree at. It's got a ridiculous amount of different kinds of tea, considering that I live in some lame city in Northern Florida where "tea" to most people means the iced kind.

I still love coffee, though. x:
