Bubble Tea

[kcdixiecat]

kc,
If you've never had one before, I'm not sure if advacado would be the First kind to try. IMO. You'll see no matter where you go they are many choices!

You'll have to report back when you try one!

Will do..are they loaded with calories? Is it a smoothie like consistency or what? I'm weird about textures.

I figure that I'll need to find a new addiction besides the dacquiri stands for when the snowballs disappear for the winter months....or do they?

spelling spanking for me, a v a c a d o I had the Burning Sensations pablo Picasso on my mind

Well the girls would turn the color
Of the avocado when he would drive
Down their street in his El Dorado



I doubt it's a low calorie low carb fest, but depending on what you get not as bad as a snoball or a daiquiri............

some are just fruit and ice, some are milk fruit and ice, etc some are like iced coffee others are frozen. Take the plunge it won't be so bad.....

We make our own. All of the necessary supplies are available at the large Asian markets.

I bought one at Hong Kong Market. Nothing special, and for the life of me I don't know why they serve it with a straw (very small opening too). All the "bubbles" do is clog the straw.

Each bubble size has a corresponding straw of the correct size.

Do you know that in Vietnam bubble tea is called boba tea?

I thought it was called Cà phê bong bóng which is loosely translated as Ping Pong.

They did that just for you dawlin!

JK!

I've had them there before several times, but not on a regular basis.
The straw has been big & avocado good as usual.


Hmmm.

You just got the wrong size straw. Those big fat straws -- and the process of slurping the tapioca pearls up, and having them sort of pop into your mouth through the straw -- all of that is part of the appeal of bubble tea in my book.

I know I'm risking coming off like a weirdo by saying this, but I think it's sort of a neat sensual experience.

I may skip the straw and try a spoon!
