In recent years, an Asian drink has taken the world by surprise, gaining popularity in every corner of the planet. This famous drink is bubble tea, a delicious combination of tea, milk, and the iconic tapioca pearls that offer a unique experience to your palate. Bubble tea has managed to become a global trend, and in this blog, we will tell you all about bubble tea, from its origin to how Cassava Roots has influenced the popularity of this Asian drink.
The origin of bubble tea
Bubble tea, boba tea, or bubble tea, was born in the 1980s in Taiwan, and although there are several versions of its exact origin, the most popular version attributes its origin to the Chu Shui Tang tea house in Taichung. According to this version, in 1983, during her visit to Japan, Lin Hsiu Hui discovered that they were enamored with a version of cold coffee, which led her to start experimenting with cold teas when she returned to Taiwan. After her idea became a success, Lin Hsiu Hui decided to give this drink a new twist by adding tapioca balls, giving life to the first bubble tea.
Bubble tea quickly became a hit among customers at Chu Shui Tang and soon gained popularity throughout Taiwan and later, the rest of the world. Since its beginnings in Taiwan, bubble tea has experienced exponential growth in international popularity, and today you can find it almost anywhere, from New York, Paris, and even Mexico.
In Mexico, it was in 2002 when brothers Daniela and Patricio Lombardo had the idea to start a new, different, and innovative business, and on July 4, 2008, the first branch of Cassava Roots opened its doors, taking bubble tea to the next level and offering the public the best bubble tea in Mexico.
The success of Cassava Roots' bubble tea has led to over 65 Cassava Roots branches currently existing in Mexico, the United States, and Spain. This success can be attributed to several key factors, such as:

Bubble tea has gone from being a local curiosity in Taiwan to a global phenomenon that is conquering the palates of all ages and cultures. Its success lies not only in its delicious flavor and fun texture but also in the ability of places like Cassava Roots to adapt and bring bubble tea to different markets.
