Get the Boba mug.No, "bubble tea" is the Americanized way of saying it. No, it is not gross. It is a flavored tea drink originated in Taiwan that usually contains tapioca "pearls", aka the Boba. You suck the drink through a large straw so you can eat the Boba too. There are also "popping boba", which is simply a small bubble around a burst of juice that well, pops easily in your mouth.

Get the bobaing mug.In Taiwan, BOBA is a slang term used for "big breast" or "big-breasted female". Only in the U.S., did the word take on the new meaning of tapioca ball, probably due to its spherical resemblence. Back in Taiwan, the origin of boba, they use the word zen zu, which literally means "pearl", to refer to the tasty tapioca ball. Regardless, both bobas are good.
