Click on each tab to get started sipping tea throughout Collin County.
Bubble tea is a Taiwanese sweet drink, but there are lots of places to snag one in Collin County. This trendy tea is also called boba tea — a milk- or tea-based drink usually served cold to your level of sweetness (I prefer “half sweet”) and with bubbles. The “bubbles” are tapioca balls. It’s a fun concept — sip the drink and chew on the tapioca!
Note: It can be easy to choke on the tapioca balls given the slippery texture, so this drink is not recommended for young children.
