Bubble tea is a tea beverage with tapioca balls mixed in. The Chinese name for bubble tea translates to "Pearl milk tea" (Traditional Chinese). When tea is shaken, a thin layer of bubbles forms on the surface. Due to the foaming process, any tea that is shaken during preparation can be called bubble tea. "Foam black tea" ( or bubble black tea) and "foam green tea" (or bubble green tea) are also common drinks made by shaking sweetened tea. After pearl milk tea was brought to non-Asian countries, it was given the name "bubble tea". Since the most notable difference between bubble tea and other tea is the tapioca at the bottom of the drink, some assumed that the "bubble" in "bubble tea" referred to the tapioca. The pearls in "pearl milk tea", however, do refer to the tapioca "pearls".

Bubble tea is generally split into two types: fruit-flavored teas, and milk teas. Milk teas may use dairy or non-dairy creamers. Originating in Taiwan, bubble tea is especially popular in many Asian regions such as mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, South Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore. The drink is also popular in Europe, Canada, and the United States.

Bubble tea is a mixture of iced or hot sweetened tea, milk, and often other flavourings. It is shaken to mix thoroughly, which produces the small bubbles characteristic of the drink. Black gummy balls made of tapioca (or, more commonly in East Asia, yam starch), called "pearls," sit at the bottom of the cup. The pearls are larger than those found in tapioca pudding, with a diameter of at least 6 millimeters, but smaller ones are occasionally used. They are transluscent brown with a darker brown center. The pearls are sucked through a wide straw along with the drink, providing something to chew on between sips.
