Bubble Tea Bliss

I'm thinking I will make this post an ongoing tab of the bubble teas I try (aka boba tea which is also known as “bubbles” or “tapioca pearls” )  , and where I get it. They're just so good, so I will add a picture, flavor and what I thought of it :) so everyone can discover all the wonderful flavors this industry has to offers. I think just about anyone can find one they like. So here it goes... my ongoing tab of the bubble teas I try!

Passion Fruit Green Tea with popping Boba cold. I REALLY liked this flavor, it was so good. The popping boba would not go up the straw very well. Popping boba is boba with juice that ‘pops’ inside your mouth. There aren't many flavors of popping boba, but they do have Passion Fruit, and it was really good.

Mango with Boba cold. I went to Fat Straw here in Portland. I would not recommend this place. The Bubble Tea was powdery, and was not mixed very well, and or they put too much powder flavoring in. It was not too enjoyable. I may try this place once more, but if the same thing happens its not worth the $4 per drink. They have Milk Teas for $3.50, but they consider the Boba an extra, and price it 0.50  more. 

Pineapple Milk Tea with Boba cold. It was pretty good, it tasted a little sweeter than normal pineapple, but it was good. Not much more to add :P

Strawberry Milk Tea with Boba cold. I went to Skinnidip by Pioneer Square. This drink was good, it was $3.75 and worth it. Same price where I usually go, the Chit Chat Cafe. It tasted like strawberry.... haha not much to say other than that it was good :)

Taro Milk Tea with Boba cold. I am not sure how I feel about this flavor.....taro is tropical plant primarily grown as a root vegetable for its edible starchy corm (tuber, like a potato), and as a leaf vegetable. It tastes kind of like buttered popcorn jellybeans, a sweet potato and kind of nutty. It wasn't my favorite flavor ever...

Watermelon Milk Tea with Boba cold. This flavor had a good after taste... that tasted like the typical watermelon flavored candy. BUT while you were actually drinking it.... it didn't really taste like much. It was good, but I probably wont get it again anytime soon. 

Papaya with Boba cold. I did not like this flavor. I don't know if it was just this flavor, but the milk teas I usually get from here, the Chit Chat Cafe aren't as thick as this one was. It tasted alright I guess, it was just really sweet and I don't know, I didn't like the flavor, and it got worse as I kept drinking it.
