Bubble tea is a tea-based drink that originated in Taiwan in the early
1980s. Lin Hsiu Hui created the first bubble tea in Chun Shui Tang, a
tea shop in Taichung, Taiwan. She experimentally combined two of her
favorite ingredients β milk tea and tapioca pearls (made from cassava
root). With more than 200 flavor combinations and tens of thousands of
drink customizations, bubble tea continues to grow exponentially.
