From Pearls to BOBA: The Cheeky History Behind the Name
In this episode of itpin Bobapedia, we reveal the fascinating story behind the name “boba”! Learn how Taiwan’s classic tapioca pearls got their playful nickname from a small shop in Tainan in 1988—thanks to an iconic Hong Kong actress. We also explain the difference between pearls, boba, and tapioca, and how the chewy “QQ texture” became a global favorite.
