- I've had friends who've gotten
like, cream cheese flavored bubble teas and things.
- That's insane.
- I don't like the sound of that.
- I don't like surprise cheese.
- No, I don't like. (laughs) - Never liked surprise cheese.
- If there's one thing I've learned.
Yeah. (laughs)
(bright upbeat music)
I've never had it.
I am so intrigued by this.
- It's otherwise known as boba, I think.
I think it was big in America for a while.
And now, there's a bunch of- - Mm.
- Like, there's actually a few places in Dublin that do it.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Best way, I would think, to describe the taste is,
you know when you have a bowl of cereal.
- Yeah. - And the milk
that's left over at the end. - Ooh.
- That's how I always think about it as.
Just cereal milk.
- Yeah, what's tapioca?
Because I feel like it's not a thing here.
I know there's tapioca pudding.
That's all I know.
- 'Cause I've heard it - Yeah.
- in TV shows. - Yeah.
- You know when they talk about it,
and I'm like, is that flan?
Flan?
- (chuckles) Flan? - I don't know.
(bright upbeat music)
- Damn!
- Oh my gosh. - This-
Oh, I love a thick straw.
- He's like, I'm just gonna give them the bits
and then they can try to figure out
how to put it together themselves.
- Have you ever, like,
caught a tadpole, or like,
scooped up some tadpole?
- You don't know me very well, do you?
- Well, no,
but I'm trying to get to know you.
- Have I picked up a tadpole?
- So this - - I'm just diving in.
Sorry. I don't
- Jesus, you've stabbed.
You've stabbed in.
- [inaudible] cause I've never had it before.
- Bubble tea is a vampire.
Right? So you're like, like that.
You're gonna put it in.
- It's so messy.
- You just have to, there you go.
- That's a bit of fun.
- That is fun!
- You, you just went straight in.
I tried to ease in and it was, it was a bad move.
- No, it was worse doing that.
- You'd have to work that hard
for a cup of tea.
- There you go.
- Oh, that's interesting.
- I'm sucking.
Nothing's coming.
- Oh God.
- You look like you're being pranked.
- You chew or, I don't know.
- I don't know.
- Oh God no. What?
- As much as you chew,
it just goes back to it's normal shape.
And that's freaking me out.
- Yeah.
- You can chew them and chew them
and they don't change their shape at all.
- Ooh,
so tea?
- My initial taste is like
fishy or something, it's like,
are you getting that?
- Not really.
- It's like,
finding something down the back of your couch
that was at some point a form of food and thinking,
do you know what I should do?
Put that in my mouth.
- I mean, the balls just like fly up.
Like, there's so many of them.
You're trying to take a sip
of the water and you're like, assaulted by them.
(chokes)
- Oh my God.
A tapioca ball like, went loose.
- It popped outta your nose.
(both laughing)
- You don't want this many balls
in your mouth when you're having a nice drink.
- Absolutely not.
- The tea itself,
this definitely just tastes
like a regular cup of standard tea with a drop of
milk.
- It is. It's like the tea taste.
That's what I thought was fish.
What is wrong with my taste buds?
- It's mad. 'cause the more you chew them -
- What a great advertising campaign.
Tapioca balls - it's mad.
- It's mad.
- And I'm not gone on the balls at all.
- No.
- I'm just,
they're better than the liquid currently.
- The balls I will admit,
are growing on me, but - the - it's
- Good. It drops soon.
Yeah. Finally.
(high pitch voice) I'm very excited.
- Now when I see pictures of bubble tea, it's usually
this color combination.
So I'm interested to try like a different one.
- Colin.
I want you to rock my world with these.
- Yes, that would be nice.
(bright upbeat music)
- Very nice.
- Ooh. These are different shapes.
- I'm scared.
- Oh. Is mine doing that
and I just haven't looked?
- It's got little funky bits.
- Someone fucked up a milkshake.
- Exactly. Like really badly. Yeah.
- Yeah.
- Are these jelly cubes?
- Jelly cubes.
- Oh, you're gonna mix it.
- I'm gonna try and mix it up.
I'm gonna try and mix it up.
- Oh look now it's all pink!
That's nice.
- You so quick.
- Oh yeah?
- You're like I've taken to this.
What's that? Ugh.
- If this is the dangerous part
- I did it!
that was smooth.
- Sorry. I, there was too much.
I'm putting too much force in this.
- I mean, now I'm expecting better
from this because I'm gonna guess strawberry.
- It kind of looks strawberry.
- Yeah.
If it's strawberry, I'm gonna lose my mind.
- Oh.
- It's actually really good.
- Yeah. It's extremely sweet.
- It's very sweet.
- Oh, why are the cubes weird?
- I'm not getting any of the rectangles though.
This is what happens.
They're stuck.
- It's very difficult to,
- I just
suck a cube through a straw.
- Oh.
- What did you get, one of the bits?
- No?
- No!
- They're great.
- Well, I can't get them!
- These jellies are definitely
not made for the straw.
I'd get them over the bubbles.
- No.
- Oh they are really good.
This is really nice.
This tastes like,
like a strawberry cheesecake in a cup.
- It's very sweet.
- Oh, it's too sweet, ugh.
Outrageously sweet.
- It's a strawberry sensation.
It's easier to take than the balls.
- Yeah.
- I'm giving this a nine.
- I'm gonna say eight. I'm gonna say eight.
- Oh.
- Underplaying it.
- I understand.
- Leaving room.
There's two more.
There's two more?
See yeah. I want to like, you know,
we'll see how it goes.
- I actually prefer the oolong.
- Ooh!
- Would you believe it?
I really like those
chewy balls.
- And now okay,
if we're talking about the balls
I much prefer the balls.
The tea itself isn't as bad,
but the jelly's really?
- Oh God.
Oh God. That's.
I don't think you were ready for that jelly.
- I was not ready for that jelly.
- I want to
- If you go back to balls,
I swear to God I will punch a wall.
- I actually wouldn't mind,
because it was a lot easier
for me to get the balls
up the straw than the rectangle things.
You know what I mean?
- Yeah. I know what you mean.
(bright upbeat music)
- Oh!
- This is stunning.
- Very exciting.
- So purple.
- It's very purple.
- Oh.
Oh.
- I'm excited.
- Is it gonna taste in any way
in relation to the color,
or is that just food coloring?
- This is the cereal milk.
- Oh amazing.
- Yeah.
- I'm so excited.
- Spyro. Spyro the Dragon flavor.
- It is Spyro the Dragon flavor!
Made with real pieces of dragon.
- This reminds me of the Specter of Death.
(laughs)
- Delicious!
- What makes it purple?
- Taro.
- Taro?
- I don't know what taro is,
but it's always purple.
- I'm intrigued.
Cause I have no idea what this is gonna taste like.
- I yeah,
I'm going to hazard a guess
that it's going to be ridiculously sweet.
- Cheers.
- Hmm.
- Do you like it?
- I don't mind it.
- Oh my God. You're so right.
It tastes like cereal milk.
- It really does.
- Ah, there's a turnip in there!
That is a root vegetable out of nowhere.
- It tastes like the color purple.
It tastes like child's paint or something.
- That is insane.
- Mm.
- That's a soup.
- That's amazing.
- (Laughs) What?
- Incredible.
- Now to be fair,
you thought the first tasted of fish, so.
- I know, I know I'm not a really good yard stick
for how things taste.
I'm, yeah.
- Cheerios.
- Cheerios. Yeah. Cheerios.
And you just like drink the milk at the end.
- You know when you have
a really sugary sweet cereal
and the milk left at the end?
- Ha! Oh God. Yeah.
- Like I'm saying like one to one
it's cereal milk.
- Yeah.
- I got a slight hint of flan.
(laughs)
- This might be one of my
new favorite flavors ever.
- You can have it.
You can have it all.
- This is great.
It looks great as well.
Purple, cool color.
- I'm not a big fan of the blue balls coming back.
- No.
- I like the feel of
the tapioca balls in the straw,
feels like I'm biting on the vein
of a very powerful animal.
I feel like I'm taking some its essence.
- Oh my God.
- What? I, like I'm right?
- Just can't get turnips out my head.
Even though I know it's not a turnip.
It's similar to a potato.
- I'm genuinely amazed at this.
I love it.
- I just kind of would wonder who would
who would like the taste of this?
Maybe it's an acquired taste?
Like maybe if I had this more often,
then I'd be like, ooh,
I really want that like purple potato.
- The best?
It's the best.
It's my favorite flavor.
If I could get taro flavored cereal
and then drink the milk of that at the end,
I feel like I would be very powerful.
(bright upbeat music)
- Oh, I'm optimistic about this one.
- Death to milk.
- This is mad.
This is no milk.
- This is like a weird tequila sunrise that goes
from sunrise to like sunset and then into like
hell underneath, you know?
- You know, if you go into a pub
and they haven't cleaned the toilets
from the night before?
(laughs)
- Is this like an iced tea, kind of?
- I'm excited about this.
We're getting both of the bubbly uh,
rectangle-y things.
- 3, 2, 1.
- Ah ha!
- Success!
- Slainte.
How are we feeling?
- It's very chewy.
- Mm hmm.
- It tastes amazing.
What is that?
- This is nice.
- Mm. It's very good.
- Ah.
- Ah, okay. There we go.
- I love iced tea.
- They did it.
- That was great.
They found the one for me. I know my order now.
- Fucking hell,
like you're trying to take a drink.
I'm like, mm, iced tea.
I'm gonna get six of those fucking balls
and then a few of the rectangles.
- I like the odd chewy ball,
but there's so much, that's a meal.
- Like I, oh fuck me.
Jesus. It's going everywhere.
They don't seal it properly at all.
- You're making a mess
in all different sorts of ways.
- You're doing completely fine.
- The liquid that it's in is so good.
It's like a really, really good Snapple.
- Oh yeah. Just bring the straw up
and just drink the passion fruit.
- Drink the passion. Fruit.
- Though it doesn't have the milky weirdness
that all the other ones have
which is probably why we enjoy it so much.
- I can see it
being a summer drink, but it's my least favorite.
- The only thing I'd change about this
is maybe slightly less tapioca balls.
- Yeah.
- I, I just don't mind them.
There's just a lot.
- Doesn't need the balls.
Doesn't need the rectangles.
You know, why mess with it?
- I feel so full of tapioca and jelly,
like my stomach is just engorged now.
- Yeah. I feel the same.
- Yeah. It's a lot.
- This is a 10.
We go all out. Why not?
I don't think that they're gonna top this.
- I'd ask for this in [inaudible],
could you just hold the balls please?
- I feel very heavy now.
(laughs)
- You're beautiful.
- No!
- Oh that was the last one, was it?
Oh, so that's the last straw.
- Oh my God.
Get out.
- That was a magical adventure
from start to finish.
- I feel like I'm the
Obi Wan Kenobi of your bubble tea adventure.
- Probably won't seek it out after this video,
but it was an experience.
That's it really.
- Yeah. Great way to spend 10 minutes on YouTube.
- Exactly.
- I'll never visit it again.
- Oh, I have so much milk in my belly.
