Last week we brought you the wonderful news of a Bubble Tea Factory opening later this year in Singapore, in yet another showing of the world’s growing boba obsession. Now you may have spent all your money or used all your holiday allowance over this week’s China birthday celebrations, and as a result might be thinking twice about making the pilgrimage all the way to the Bubble Tea Factory – but here’s a handful of other boba-based creations you’ll find over in Singapore that might just convince you.

Pearl Milk Tea Soft Serve

Same same but different to the bubble tea ice cream earlier in this article, this is simply pearls dumped on top of milk tea soft serve. No more of that fighting through ice cubes to get to those last pearls.

Alcoholic Bubble Tea

How more people haven’t cottoned onto this idea, we’ll never know. There are cups spiked with rum and vanilla, or fruitier offerings with gin, apple juice, rose syrup and lychee balls – or even 79 Singaporean Dollar five-course bubble tea pairing dinner.
