So today is National Bubble Tea Day. Did you know? I had no idea!
My daughter loves bubble tea. We had a place not too far from our house when she was in high school, and she and her friends would go for bubble tea a couple times a week.
I love tea, but I've never had bubble tea. Maybe it's time I did. What do you think? Are you a bubble (or boba) tea fan? -
TIL: When you call bubble tea "boba tea", you might want to know that "boba" is a slang term for a woman with big breasts.
That's because the tapioca balls/pearls in it were originally much smaller. When the larger ones were invented, they decided to go for a name that, uh, symbolizes their increased size, and chose the nickname of voluptuous sex symbol Amy Yip.
