Will your first reaction be that "milk tea" is true, but more refers to English milk tea.
The popular "bubble tea" usually consists of tea, milk and sugar (optional). There is a special expression: make (milk) tea.
Bubble means "bubble", so Bubble Tea literally means "bubble tea", which is related to the origin of its Chinese name. The name "bubble tea" originally came from the bubbles formed when milk tea was shaken, rather than the pearl powder balls added to the drink.
"Bubble tea" has many nicknames:
Pearl (milk) tea foam tea
Boba (milk tea) Boba milk tea
Black tea: black tea
A saying about black tea is that in the17th century, the British bought a lot of Wuyi tea from Xiamen, Fujian. This kind of tea is quite dark in color, which is quite different from green tea, so it is called "black tea". Another way of saying this is that when China green tea is shipped overseas, it slowly ferments because it has been drifting at sea for a long time. At the destination, the color of tea has become very dark, so it was later called "black tea".
