Bubbleology

• Visitor Information

Try something a little bit different at Bubbleology, a bubble tea cafe in Soho. What's bubble tea? Well, it's just like normal tea but with chewy natural tapioca balls at the bottom that can be sucked up through a wide straw. The technique works with either fruit or milk teas and can be served either piping hot or ice cold. The origins of bubble tea are found in Taiwan, where the drink was invented in the early 1980's. With a 'base' of green tea, black/red tea or white tea, the fruit teas are infused with natural fruit flavourings, as are the milk teas, which may sound like a nudge towards a milkshake but is crucial for the delicious taste. Choose from a range of flavours including Mango Green and Kumquat Red from the fruit teas and Coconut, Vanilla and Taro from the milk variety. And, as if all of that wasn't enough for your experimentative taste buds, there's also food available with open-toasted sandwiches, cookies, cakes and experimental 'cruffins' - essentially a crumpet or muffin with toppings such as chocolate spread, strawberry jam, cream cheese and honey. If you're feeling like trying something completely new, then don't miss this one.
