Bubble tea, also called boba tea or pearl milk tea, is gradually making its way across the Green Bay area as its popularity surges. Originating from Taiwan, the beloved drink is named after the black, chewy tapioca pearls, or boba, that sit at the bottom.

The beverage can be both tea-based (tapioca pearls in a type of tea) or smoothie-based (tapioca pearls in smoothie.) Green Bay s tea spots serve a wide variety of both.
