Bubble Tea in the city
Having done research Bubble Tea also known as Boba seems to really be the only place in Nairobi to get boba tea. Boba Caffe is in the CBD of Koinange Street, Gigiri and Sarit Centre. I’ve tried out a lot of flavours since I first found out about boba and I can’t stress enough how delicious and comforting this cold drink is. I often have it with 0% sugar because I find the flavours sweet enough as is. I like my tea with an extra scoop of boba. We ordered mint green tea and strawberry black tea which was recommended by the attendant.We found the two flavors really nice since it was our firdt time trying them. since the caffe was not crouded the service is really really fast. Boba is made from tapioca starch, also known as cassava starch, which is why they’re often also labeled as tapioca pearls. They’re small spheres that are often simmered in a brown sugar syrup to give them a sweet taste and dark black color. Boba is practically tasteless, making it easy to pair with a variety of drinks. There are also popping boba varieties, which are often colorful and filled with fruit-flavored syrups. Here at Sarit their sitting area is very clean,actually you can even have a small meeting as you enjoy your tea.
