The newest craze on college campuses is the Taiwanese drink Bubble Tea. Also called boba (meaning milk) or pearl tea, the drink comes in a variety of flavors and consistencies to feed your craving. From

smoothie types to iced teas, from sweet to bitter, the one common factor are the bubbles—tapioca starch balls—or also called “pearls.” Are you already hooked? Been hearing about it and wanted to give it a try? Well, RI has caught on to the Bubble Tea trend and we’ve complied a list of great places to get your Bubble Tea treat.
