What are people putting in my bubble tea? Poison!
Not really, but it's like the chicken nugget mystery. Most bubble tea places use non-dairy creamer because of the prevalence of lactose intolerance in the Asian population.

The Best Boba in Austin, TX
Bubble tea is great, especially in Texas heat. At a price of $3.50 a pop, you want to get what you pay for. Here's how I judge boba.
Judging Boba -
Boba should be chewy, but not mushy, and definitely not hard. It should have some flavor- whether it's brown sugar or honey.
Judging Tea -
It shouldn't be under or over-steeped. Also, powder is not preferred - it defeats the 'tea' part of bubble tea.
