There are many rumors on the Internet about the origin of bubble tea. But we have tracked down the creator of this popular drink. This woman works in a tea shop in Taichung, Taiwan.
The idea came in the early 1980s, after they started serving cold brew coffee.
In 1988, Ms. Lin Xiu Hui was sitting in a staff meeting and brought along a typical Taiwanese dessert called fen yuan, a sweetened tapioca pudding. And just for flavor, I added tapioca pearls to my iced tea and drank it.
Everyone at the meeting really liked that drink. Even after 20 years, bubble tea accounts for 80-90% of sales and the people of Taiwan are very proud of this drink.
Today, bubble tea stores are located on every corner in Taiwan. First it spread to neighboring countries such as Japan, South Korea and China, and then to European countries such as Spain, Italy, etc.
If a Taiwanese person flies somewhere, he or she is sure to observe the tradition - before going to the airport, he or she is sure to visit an establishment where bubble tea is available. Linh wants bubble tea to become the drink of choice in every country in the world. In this context, Bubble tea is part of Asian tradition and cultural heritage.
Bubble tea is not just a drink, it is a whole experience of flavors. If you want to try something new, unique and interesting, bubble tea is worth trying. A play of flavors and textures awaits you that will delight and surprise you.
