boba straw

Pearl tea sipper

A boba straw is the extra-wide drinking straw designed for consuming bubble tea, with a diameter large enough to allow tapioca pearls and other chewy toppings to pass through.

These straws are typically made of plastic, though reusable metal and silicone versions have become popular.

The pointed tip on disposable boba straws lets drinkers pierce the sealed plastic film that covers many bubble tea cups.
