Asian Tea Babble T: history, recipe and main trends 2025

Despite its apparent simplicity, this drink has become an important part of the modern Taiwanese culture of the life of life. And it is curious that its history is linked to ten -year disputes on which exactly the first to start making a prototype of one of the most fashionable drinks today.

Initially, Babble appeared in the 1980s in traditional Taiwan tea stores and gradually spread around the world: from Berlin to Brazil. Its variations include not only classic milk tea, but also experimental combinations, you can find Bob Latte with the aroma of a rose or even balls with the taste of pizza.

There are two main stories about how Babb Ty was created. The first is linked to the Chun Shui Tang tea house in the city of Taikhun. The founder, Liu Han-Tsiy, invited his employees to experiment with various additives, and one of them decided to add tapioceric bullets to tea. The second version attributes the invention to the owner of the Hanlin tea room in a secret inspired by starchy balls in sugar water, a dessert on the local market.

The two stories are interesting and quite credible, but in 2019, the Court concluded that Bable is not a patented product, the question of its paternity has no legal importance.

Initially, the babbling was made of sweet black tea with milk and lactic cream. Modern options include green tea, oolong, jasmine tea and other varieties, as well as fruit mixtures, including potatoes. Coffee and cocoa can also be added to Boba. In a part of a classic woman, around 500 ml – about 300 kcal, mainly carbohydrates.

The main component of the drink is the balls themselves (beans) which are prepared from a mixture of starch, brown sugar and water. The classic balls are boiled for the characteristic elasticity and shine. To give the texture, use the starch of the leeway, sometimes adding the starch of sweet potatoes. The brown sugar gives balls a characteristic dark caramel. To extend the shelf life, manufacturers can add preservatives.

In addition, recently, Jus Bolla has become very fashionable – they are made of frost -based algae collagen and fruit juices. The juice balls explode when they are in a hurry, so they are called Boba in popping (“burst beans”).

Here are the main reasons:

Babblet offers an unusual sensory experience thanks to a combination of sweet milk tea and chewing balls. This “game” element is the ability to “tickle” the taste receptors and obtain tactile pleasure from the balls.

At the end of the 20th century, active globalization began, especially in the field of food and drinks. Babb-Ti was part of this process, when Taiwanese immigrants and tourists began to spread it outside the island. Many international cities with large Asian diasporas were the first to accept this trend, which then spread.

The interest in Asia increases from year to year: music (K-Pop, J-Pop), cinema (Korean television shows, Japanese animation), fashion and cooking. Bable has become a symbol of this trend, representing an affordable and recognizable element of Asian culture.

Bable has become an ideal product for visual content. The bright colors of the drink, huge transparent glasses with black balls inside and wide tubes are very cool and attractive.

For many, Bable has become a “comfortable” drink associated with pleasant memories. This is particularly true for those who tried it for the first time during the trip or life in Asia. For others, it is a drink associated with relaxation and rest.

Babble has become a symbol of Taiwanese culture and causes a feeling of pride among local residents. International recognition of the drink contributed to its popularization, because people wanted to try the “cultural phenomenon” born in Taiwan. Such association with authenticity and quality attracts lovers of exploring new cultures through food.

The manufacture of women does not require complicated equipment or special skills. This makes it accessible to mass production and a rapid distribution. Many small entrepreneurs can also open their points – if you are sure they will face the competition.

This is what the classic babb-ti can look like:

You can prepare a drink at home, but the difficulty of the dream is to cook the dry bought balls of Tapioki. Here’s how I recommend cooking them.

No matter the popularity of tastes with Japanese game tea, I would always recommend drinking them in a trust institution. A good match is a very expensive product, and buying it a little house is not profitable. So, if you like babbling with matches, take it in an institution with a Japanese bias, they tremble at the choice of raw materials.

With the nuances of the match of the match, the tarot powder (Indonesian tuber with the taste of cookies), buckwheat notes (“dogs”). And the taste of the Fleuri Sakura will be particularly popular – it looks like young cherry berries with a delicate shade of cherry bud flowers.
