What is the traditional mango bubble tea?
The original mango bubble tea was made with mango instant powder, non-dairy creamer, and tea. At the time, the bubble tea industry was in its infancy, with few bobaristas creating innovative recipes or pairing the beverage with a wide array of toppings. Mango instant powder was the simplest and quickest way to create a consistent flavor.
How did traditional mango bubble tea evolve into the popular version we know today?
As consumers sought a richer flavor and texture, bobaristas began to experiment with the traditional mango bubble tea made with instant powder, incorporating mango jam and flavored syrups. The desire for healthier options led to the use of fresh fruit, but the inconsistent quality of fresh mangoes posed challenges for franchises. To ensure quality control and reduce the difficulty of reproducing the beverage, bobaristas introduced frozen juice or puree, pulp, and jams, along with flavored mango tea soup, fresh milk, cream, coffee milk, and various toppings (such as crystal boba, popping boba, amber pearls, tapioca, jelly, and creme brulee) to enhance the texture.
