Now, you've mentioned one of my favorite things, iced cappuccino..love it!!!!

That makes 2 of us!!!

What are "boba (tapioca balls)"? Is that similar to sugar cubes?

It is a round chewy ball that is made of tapioca (slight to no flavor...in a sense it assumes the flavor of the drink) ~1-1/2cm in diameter. They put them in the bottom of a drink(eg. Iced Cappuccino), and then you can suck them up through a straw, as you drink. So basically you are eating and drinking at the same time. You have to be careful the first few times, as you can accidently choke...kind of a dangerous drink >gg< If they are fresh, then they are very soft and chewy...if they are old, then they are hard and tough to chew.

My favorite is the Blended Cappuccino with Boba...it is like a slushie type cappuccino (similar to an mocha frappuccino from Starbucks), with boba.

Worth the choking risk...BWDIK?

Best of Luck,

WHG?
