Flavors of Bubble Tea

While all of the other ingredients form the base for bubble tea (tea, milk, and boba), the true flavor comes from the flavoring ingredient such as a syrup or powder. Just as coffee houses will have a line up of syrup bottles to flavor lattes, bubble tea shops are stocked with a great variety of syrups and powders.

Flavored simple syrups are the more popular flavoring option because they mix easily into the cold milk tea. Some popular fruity options include:

• Honeydew

• Lychee

• Mango

• Passion Fruit

• Peach

• Plum

• Strawberry

• Avocado

• Banana

• Cantaloupe

• Coconut

• Grape

• Green Apple

• Jackfruit

• Kiwi

• Lemon

• Pineapple

• Watermelon

For a less fruity flavor, try these popular options:

• Almond

• Coffee

• Ginger

• Pudding (e.g., chocolate, custard, mango, or taro)

• Taro

• Barley

• Caramel

• Chocolate

• Lavender

• Mocha
