This seller shipped the items in a way that kept the containers from leaking. Product was perfect once opened. Have I currently only opened the strawberry bobas but they have great flavor. Definitely recommend this seller and product.

I wish the flavor was a little stronger but overall a very good buy and will be buying more here soon. I love bubble tea. and when I found this I got all excited and was very pleased with it. Had no problem with shipping. Did not arrive leaking. Was very well sealed. Was a little difficult to get the clear part off of it without spilling a little but other than that it is good. Just wish a little more flavor in the strawberry. The blueberry is very strong and can taste it with no issue. I put mine in Tropical flavor tea or regular tea.

So popping boba seems to average about $10. US a pound. So this is a good value. Bobas are flavorful and are quality packaged. 4 different flavors each in a 1 lb. Container.

These are awesome! Tastes just like blueberries.
Troy
The flavor is great. Same texture as the one's in the drinks from shops. No need to rehydrate. It's ready to go right out of the container.
Jess
These are great! Delicious. Perfect addition to my tea.

This is such a nice, rounded set. The containers have a good sizing (not too small or large). The bobas are in very good condition have a strong color, and pack taste. The gel isn't so thin that it is easily damaged, but is also thin enough to pop with slight pressure of the tongue. They are sweet but not overly so.
The only criticism is that they do make a mess when opened because they are filled to the brim, but since this is a standard container for bobas, I can't really can't it off of this product. They taste and function very well...and have put a smile on my daughter's face.

Keep in mind that these aren't traditional boba these are flavor pearls. They do leave a thin film in my mouth when the pop but unlike others I have had these aren't that noticable and almost seem to dissolve. The flavors are great I like the lychee and the passion fruit the best. The blueberry and strawberry taste artificial the blueberry being the worst IMO. Overall I enjoy these. They do come with a qr code for recipes so that was a nice added touch. When I get more I'm going to focus on the ones I like but this was a great way to trial them.

Great flavors, popping boba is always the way to go. Shipped fast. Comes with a QR code to different recipes and uses for the boba. Have fun!

This is a great assortment of pearls and nice to have to use for anything, not just boba. We've enjoyed adding them to sparkling waters. (They mostly start on the bottom but some eventually float to the top, which was fun.) The juice (14.5% fruit juice plus water and fructose) these are packed in and that is in each pearl tastes good, not overly sweet to be cloying but definitely full of the individual fruit's flavor.

So these pop once squeezed in the mouth. They do burst and are packed with flavor. 5 grams of sugar per serving and each container has 16 servings so it's not really a bad deal. They are vegan which is great for overall health, and surprisingly do taste great, not like cardboard.
The container lid is very tight and not easy to take off, which is great for packing, and each container comes sealed as well under the lid. No caveats here and plan on ordering all the flavors as for making boba tea at home is far cheaper than purchasing them on the go.
We ordered blueberry and it does taste like a sweetened blueberry just ripe with flavor.

One of the main reasons I went to frozen yogurt shops so I could put these on top! Taste the same as you would find in most shops. More water than juice but you're not drinking a cup of these, the are meant as an addition to your drink or in our case your frozen yogurt too. Yummy. Wasnt aware until now that they only go in the fridge after they've been opened. Thats a plus.

These are delicious!! I have tried so many bobas out there, and I have to say these are some of the best I've had to date. The best part of them is that the casing isn't so thick! They don't have any slimy feeling, even after they pop. My son is obsessed with them! He has them in his iced tea, lemonade, even his sunny d. We will definitely be buying more!
Zoe H.
I ordered this in the “4 flavors kit”, which includes bobas in four different flavors. All four flavors taste good to me, so it’s hard to pick a favorite. These go well in juices, fruit flavored teas, and smoothies. My whole family enjoys these popping boba pearls.
Sarah
These popping boba pearls are just like the ones that I can get at my local boba shops. It gives a nice burst of juice and sweetness when the pearls pop in your mouth. I definitely recommend these for people who enjoy adding popping pearls to their boba, but want to do it at a fraction of the cost at home.
I used the lychee popping boba pearls in a strawberry honey black tea (steep black tea bag, add honey, add a spoonful of strawberry jam, add a few diced strawberries, and add the lychee boba pearls). It tastes exactly like the ones I get in the store for $7/cup! The juice that the popping pearls sit in is sweet too, so you can also add a bit of that to your drink for more flavor and sweetness.
Sharon G.
These are just like the Boba you would get at a store. You can make a juice then add these inside and I can say I need more. My children loved them and I did as well. Makes a colorful drink depending on how you make your smoothie.
Toree M.
I mostly just add these to plain black teas since the flavors are fruity and I didn't want to get too crazy - but they are great! You can really smell the flavors (weird to say) before you even open the containers so they are not weak in the taste department. They are a nice little pick-me-up to a regular beverage at home. :) :)
Caleb H.
I got these to use with ice cream and frozen yogurt, and they are so good! My daughter loves them, her favorite flavor is the lychee. The blueberry is our least favorite flavor. These aren't tapioca boba, they are just a gelatin type capsule that bursts when you chew them. These would be a fun addition to an ice cream bar or party.
Trevor
Buying boba from a restaurant can be pricey today, these make it cost effective to enjoy your favorite drinks in the comfort of your own home without breaking the bank. Super easy to use, just literally scoop some into your drink and enjoy
Ashley
These are utterly perfect!
I love to make Boba tea for my kids at home. We have done traditional tapioca boba, but I try to expose them to as many different things as possible. We've tried popping boba in the past and they ask for it all the time. I prefer to use them with lemonade!
The price of these is about average.
The size of the boba are uniform and perfect. One thing that I really liked is that the ""skin"" isn't too thick. One thing I've noticed with some brands is that the ""skin"" tends to be super thick and chewy. These are not. What I find incredible is that these don't have a thick skin but still travelled really, really well. I did not have any kind of empty skins at the bottom of the container or that I had to wash out of glasses which I think is really great. The syrup they're packed in isn't super thick. The inside is....really kind of syrupy. I wish it was more juicy, but they're still amazing tasting. The favorite flavor was Lychee and Passion Fruit. The other flavors were good. The blueberry wasn't as great as some I've had but still really tasty.
My only complaint is about the packaging. I just don't trust it. The plastic safety seal on top doesn't have a lip so you have to cut into the top and it gets syrup everywhere and it's sticky. I hated that part and I know that its a sticky thing and couldve happened anyway but it was just a bit much.

If you lived through the ""molecular gastronomy"" trend popularized in the late 90s and early 00s, you may have heard of ""spherification"". Using chemistry, liquids mixed with sodium alginate reacts with calcium chloride and become spheres when done correctly. This is highly simplified; you need to measure pH and factor it to get a perfect sphere, among other things.
Knowing that, these are made very well. It has to survive packaging and shipping long distances and stay preserved since it is has real fruit juice. The ingredients prioritize having a certain amount of real juice, augmented by some artificial flavor, and the rest of the cast is there to make sure it survives intact and tastes good while retaining a perfect sphere. It arrives intact, and the pearls pop correctly.
The flavors are good. Real lychee is pretty subtle and it's a little sweeter here, but whatever you pair with it should take that into account so as not to overpower it. Blueberry cuts through yogurt much like real blueberries. Passionfruit is your standard boba flavor, a bit of tartness so it's assertive enough. The Strawberry has a bit of an artificial note which may or may not be welcome.
I prefer standard tapioca pearls in my boba, but these are great in yogurt and other applications. The variety pack is good to change things up or figure out what you like. At under $0.47 a serving it may be a lot more convenient than making your own.

I used them on a mango and passion fruit milk tea and they were amazing.
Isabella .
The same stuff you get at boba tea restaurants.
Very tasty.
Andrew&Lindsey
These are very good boba pearls, I definitely recommend. They arrived quickly and weren’t half popped, like some brands end up doing.
Stacey S.
Great just eating out if containers. Could add ti juices if you want...
Veronica R.
I got the strawberry flavored popping bubbles, came in on time. used them this morning in my smoothie and they taste great! definitely buying other flavors ☺️
Sandy
These came in perfect shape. I put the blueberry ones in strawberry milk as a special Valentine’s Day treat for my kids.
Taylor C.

Marlene
It’s super yummy in my home made boba tea
Lily C.
Tastes like the juice coming straight out the fruit
Tammy B.
OH MY GOSH... We have gotten these in certain drinks at a big name coffee shop. My Grand Daughters love them. I ordered these for Easter as a special little drink bar and they went nuts. We will be buying these again.
Joann O.
The blueberry Bobas are the best I’ve ever had. They have delicious tasting blueberry juice inside. I made drinks with them, everyone loved them.
Nick
Amazing product, excellent and wonderful customer service , definitely I will buy again . My wife love it .

Kendra
These were so yummy and perfect for making Boba at home! They arrived the next day as well!
Colleen S.
I absolutely love the flavor and great shipping time ty
Cerulean M.
Great sweet lychee flavor, in different drink and in dessert applications. All the guests really liked it. Does have a slight, but faint rose water taste. Paired well with peach
and pineapple desserts.
Steve
I like the Flavor, but to some people this would be consider expensive, but from what i have tried there was no plastic inedible film texture.
Scarlett L.
Arrived in good condition, good taste
Samantha
Taste amazing! Just what I needed to make an amazing flavored drink. Would buy again. Wish I could buy in a bigger size.
Jamie
Arrived without leakage and tasted great!
Nick G.
We had a DIY boba bar. These were the first to go!
Make some tea, add some juice, & some popping boba. Perfection!
Audrey S.
I make myself a mixed Boba drink every day, and I have tried every kind of Boba pearls, both tapioca and popping. This brand is my absolute favorite of the popping variety. The fruit juice is so nice and tangy, and the gelatinous skins have a lovely almost chewy quality that I can really fiddle with while it's in my mouth. I hate it when the skin almost melts away the minute you put it in a drink or in your mouth. Your brand is just DIVINE!!!!!!! I only wish I could afford to buy many, many more per week. As it is, I have to really resist the temptation.
James
These don't really ""pop"" so much as disintegrate. By the time they make their way up the straw and into your mouth, the vast bulk have already popped on the journey and are nothing more than the flimsy film that once formed the bubble. It feels like plastic cling wrap and gets stuck in my molars. Very unpleasant.
There's a slight lychee taste, but not much of one. All things considered, I can't recommend these and won't buy them again.
UPDATE: After writing this review, I noticed my straw was too narrow for the pearls, so it was user error! I upped the rating from 2 to 4 stars. I'm still pretty displeased with the flavor, but the texture is fine if you use a big enough straw.
FURTHER UPDATE: I'm obviously a total amateur when it comes to this. After ordering a couple of 1/2"" stainless steel straws on Amazon, I see now that these are actually very flavorful. It's just that my old straw was causing the liquid to get diluted in the mouthful of tea. You can get a pair of big, half-inch straws for less than $5, and I definitely recommend doing that if you want to experience this product to the fullest extent. I know half an inch feels huge, but it's perfectly fine.
