What is National Boba Day?

National Boba Day, officially observed on April 30, is an annual celebration dedicated to bubble tea. The holiday commemorates the day in 2010 when the first American bubble tea shop opened in New York City, marking a turning point for boba culture in the US. Whether you call it boba, bubble tea, or pearl milk tea, the day is all about enjoying your favorite cup and sharing the love with friends.

What is boba tea?

Boba tea (also called bubble tea) is a tea-based drink made with black, green, or fruit tea, combined with milk, fruit flavors, or both, then topped with chewy tapioca pearls or other fun add-ons. It's customizable, refreshing, and endlessly fun to drink.

At Tastea, every drink is made to order so you can build exactly what you're craving from classic milk teas to fruit teas, smoothies, and everything in between.
