Bubble tea and frozen yogurt in Munich

Does anyone know of a place to get Bubble Tea?

 

Wikipedia - Bubble tea

 

 

Bubble tea, pearl milk tea, or boba milk tea is a tea beverage mixture with milk. Originating in Taiwan, it is especially popular in Asia (Taiwan, PRC, Hong Kong, South Korea, the Philippines) as well as Europe, Canada, and the United States. It is also known as black pearl tea or tapioca tea.

Nope, not that I know of. Do you want to open a stall/shop, kat?

[kat_astrophy72 2]

I'm not really looking for a new career, just really want a sesame Bubble Tea and I can't seem to find any.

Interesting idea though...hmmmmm...

[tom_a 459]

Don't think it's available here. Never seen it outside of Asia.

Order it online from teagree.de

You can make it at home, kat, if you've enough desire and patience.

Will it sell well to the Europeans, I wonder. We could try setting up a TT Bubble Tea venture and run it on shifts during next summer's Tollwood. May spark off a craze, waddya think? :)

[georgiagirl 35]

Not a bad idea actually. Europeans seem to hop on those fad drink crazes.

 

Now if only tapioca wasn't thoroughly repugnant..."tapioca pearls"...shudder.

[Why8 1]

I dare say that it's a bad idea to try it during winter though.

 

Wait, why are you looking for bubble tea in winter, kat72??

[kat_astrophy72 2]

Apparently, pregnancy cravings have complete disregard for seasons.

I'm going to try and make some, thanks for the links!

[Why8 1]

If you suceed, tell us and we'll put up a stall

 

We need one of those eerie dirty dolls to shake the tea like in Singaporean night markets though...

[kat_astrophy72 2]

Sure I can get us one of those, my Dad can ship us all the things we need to create the right atmosphere. Just gotta work on making the tea taste right first! I bet the Germans would buy it. They seem to like foreign things.

[Why8 1]

Let's do it, kat. Our billboard should read "Great for pregnancy cravings, et al"

 

@georgiagirl - what's wrong with tapioca? :angry:

[Yeti 276]

Tapioca - frog spawn from a broken home, frogs from the wrong side of the pond.

[kat_astrophy72 2]

Is Kreb Reis tapioca???

what's wrong with tapioca?

Allow me to illustrate.

A B C

 

Regarding Example C: this seriously came up in my Google Image search for "tapioca". If that doesn't put you off the stuff I can't think what would.

... hey, if it can give Alf a body like that... :P

[kat_astrophy72 2]

I think we should call the stand Alf's Bubble Tea and advertise it as a Wellness Drink. Should do great business, it worked for Alf.

[georgiagirl 35]

The thing I find most disturbing about that Alf image is that he appears to be packing some serious heat downstairs. Alarming. If tapioca is indeed responsible then your business will take off lickety-split.

 

Edit: I can't stop looking at it. I feel extremely uncomfortable. And yet mildly aroused.

[Why8 1]

... that's it, I'm drinking tapioca from today on...
