tapioca pearls
Bubble tea balls
Tapioca pearls are small, chewy balls made from tapioca starch, extracted from the cassava root.
They're cooked until translucent and slightly gummy, then added to desserts and drinks—most famously bubble tea, where they sink to the bottom and are sucked up through an oversized straw.
Also called boba.
