Vegetarian Friendly!
Did you know that all Bubble Tea
House Company products are Vegetarian friendly and almost all are Vegan?
Here at Bubble Tea House Company we
like to know exactly where our food comes from and everything that goes into
it. We understand that various treats including jellies and chewy sweets can be
of concern as they may contain unfamiliar animal elements (such as gelatin). However, all of our Syrups,
Jams, Jellies, Pobbles and Tapioca Pearls contain only plant-based ingredients,
like Agar and Coconut, making them completely acceptable as part of a Vegan
diet.
The only ranges of product that is
not Vegan, but still remains 100% Vegetarian friendly, are our Milky Powders.
They contain Sodium Caseinate, which is a type of milk protein that allows our
powders to have that creamy and delicious texture which cannot go amiss in a
Milky Bubble Tea.

Varianty
Each of the ingredients of bubble tea can have many variations depending on the tea house. Typically, different types of black tea, green tea, or even coffee form the basis of this beverage. The most common black tea varieties are Oolong and Earl Grey, while jasmine green tea is a mainstay at almost all tea stores. Another variation called “yuan yang”, (named after the Mandarin Duck) originated in Hong Kong and consists of half black tea and half coffee. Some people add milk to the drink. Decaffeinated versions of teas are sometimes available when the tea house brews fresh the tea base.
Different flavourings can be added to bubble tea. Some widely
available fruit flavours include strawberry, green
apple, passion
fruit, mango, lemon, watermelon, grape, lychee, peach, pineapple, cantaloupe, honeydew, banana, avocado, coconut, kiwi,
and jack fruit. Other popular non-fruit flavours
include taro, pudding, chocolate, coffee, mocha, barley, sesame, almond, ginger, lavender, rose, caramel and violet.
Some of the sour fruit flavours are available in bubble tea without milk only
as the acidity tends to curdle the milk.
Other varieties of the bubble tea drink can include blended
drinks. Many stores in the U.S. provide a list of choices to choose from. Some
may include coffee-blended drinks or even smoothies.
Tapioca balls are the prevailing chewy tidbit in
bubble tea, but a wide range of other options can be used to add similar
texture to the drink. Green pearls have a small hint of green tea flavour, and
are chewier than the traditional tapioca balls. Jelly is also used in small
cubes, stars, or rectangular strips, with flavours such as coconut
jelly, konjac, lychee, grass, mango, and green tea often
available at some shops. Rainbow, a fruit mix of konjac, has a pliant, almost
crispy consistency. Azuki bean or mung bean paste, also
typical toppings for Taiwanese shaved ice desserts, give the drinks an added
subtle flavour as well as texture. Aloe, egg pudding (custard pudding), sago,
and taro balls can also be found in most tea houses.
Due to its popularity,
single-serving packets of black tea (with powdered milk and sugar included) are
available as "Instant Boba Milk Tea" in some places.
Bubble tea cafés will also frequently serve drinks without
coffee or tea in them. The base for these drinks is flavouring blended with
ice, often called Snow Bubble. All mix-ins that can be added to the bubble tea
can also be added to these slushie-like drinks. One drawback to them is
that the coldness of the iced drink may cause the tapioca balls to harden,
making them difficult to suck up through a straw and chew. To prevent this from
happening, these slushies must be consumed more quickly than bubble tea.
Occasionally, nata de coco is used in mass-produced bubble tea drinks as a healthier alternative to tapioca starch. Nata de coco is high in dietary fiber and low in cholesterol and fat. The nata de coco is sliced into thin strips to make it easier to pass through a straw.

History of Bubble Tea
Bubble tea came into existence in Taiwan, when the beverage was
created during the 1980s. Although it is not known which exact Taiwanese shop
is the creator of Bubble tea, several shops are speculated to be the origin.
One
possible origin is Chun Shui Tang teahouse in Taichung, where Ms. Lin Hsiu Hui
(product development manager) poured sweetened tapioca balls into the tea during
a meeting in 1988. The beverage was well received by the people at the meeting,
leading to its inclusion on the menu, ultimately becoming the franchise's
top-selling product. An alternative origin is the Hanlin teahouse in Tainan,
Taiwan, owned by Tu Tsong-he. He made tea using traditional white tapioca,
which has the appearance of pearls, supposedly resulting in the so-called
"pearl tea". Shortly after, Hanlin changed the white tapioca balls to
the black version that is seen most today. The drink became popular in most
parts of East and Southeath Asia during the 1990s.
In June 2012, McDonald's McCafé locations in Germany and Austria
began offering bubble tea. They offer black, green, or white tea, available
with or without milk. Fruit syrups are also available, bringing the total
number of possible flavour combinations to 250.
Bubble teas are generally of two distinct types: fruit-flavoured
teas and milk teas. However, some shops offer hybrid "fruit milk teas".
Most milk teas include powdered dairy or non-dairy creamers, but some shops also offer fresh milk as an alternative. Other
varieties are 100% crushed-fruit smoothies with tapioca pearls and signature
ice cream shakes made from local ice cream sources. Many American bubble tea
vendors sell "milk smoothies", which are similar to bubble tea but do
not contain any tea ingredients. Some small cafés offer sweetener substitutes
such as honey, agave, stevia, and aspartame upon special request.
The oldest known bubble tea consisted of a mixture of hot Taiwanese black tea, small tapioca
pearls, condensed
milk, and
syrup or honey. Many variations were created, the most common of which is
served cold rather than hot. The tea type is frequently replaced. First was
bubble green tea, which uses jasmine-infused green tea instead of black tea. Big tapioca pearls were adapted
and quickly replaced the small pearls. Peach or plum flavouring appeared,
then more fruit flavours were added until, in some variations, the tea was
removed entirely in favour of real fruit. These fruit versions sometimes
contain coloured pearls (and/or "jelly cubes" as in the related drink taho), the colour chosen to match
whatever fruit juice is used. Flavours may be added in the form of powder,
fruit juice, pulp, or syrup to hot black or green tea, which is then shaken in
a cocktail
shaker or mixed with ice in a blender. Cooked tapioca pearls and other mix-ins (such as honey, syrup,
and sugar) are added at the end.
Today, one can find shops entirely devoted to bubble tea, similar to
the juice bars of the early 1990s. Some
cafés use plastic dome-shaped lids, while other bubble tea bars serve it using
a machine to seal the top of the cup with plastic cellophane. This allows the
tea to be shaken in the serving cup and makes it spill-free until one is ready
to drink it. The cellophane is then pierced with an oversized straw large
enough to allow the pearls to pass through.
Today, in Taiwan, it's more common for people to refer to the
drink as "pearl milk tea" (zhen zhu). "Pearl milk tea" is
also used by English speakers and overseas Chinese and Taiwanese speakers, but
it is usually called bubble tea.
