Chicago - Oh you dirrty. But no seriously, vegan boba - look into it! Argo Tea did, and they've come up with a quirky twist on the traditional tea drink, using coconut gelatin instead of tapioca. (Tapioca, like Jello, apparently contains bone marrow extract or something equally appetizing.)
Okay, I went to Berkeley and not even the nuttiest nutjob in the Capital of Weird came up with vegan boba (that I know of), so I was pretty impressed.
The gelatin cubes have the consistency of firm Jello, and are like tiny bursts of fruity juiciness when you bite into them. The tea itself (I tried mango and my friend had the coconut) is light and refreshing. Overall, a very pleasant summer drink to top off a very pleasant summer week in Chicago.

It's a crazy world. Drink boba.
Hi!
Thanks for checking out my boba blog. If you're reading this, I've probably forced you at some point to have a boba-related conversation, whether you cared (or knew) about boba or not.
This blog is a work in progress, and will evolve as I continue to explore boba offerings around the world. Expect to see updates and more sophisticated layout as I navigate my way through cyberspace.
Questions, comments, boba recommendations? Please leave a comment or find me on Twitter - @cat_ho.
Happy drinking! No, not that kind.
