What is boba?
Many have heard of the whimsical beverage called boba. However, for those
not as familiar with it, boba tea (AKA bubble tea or pearl tea) is a sweet concotion
brimming (or should I say bubbling) with potential. It is a tea-based drink,
often added with creamer or milk, that can be comprised of various toppings
typically tapioca pearls but may also include any other desired additions like lychee jelly, fruit, mochi, and a whole slew of other
interesting options. With boba, the sky's the limit!
If you ever find yourself in the San Francisco Bay Area, specifically the East Bay, you will find yourself surrounded by a plethora of boba spots. Below, I have listed some of my favorite spots and recommended picks.
