Bubble Tea | Ordering at a Drink Shop in Mandarin Chinese | Linus the Taiwanese

Bubble Tea | Ordering at a Drink Shop in Mandarin Chinese | Linus the Taiwanese
If you ask me, Taiwanese people are a lot like bubble tea. Tea stands for the Chinese culture that comes to us by blood. Milk represents our connections to countries like the US, Japan, Korea, and even Spain and Portugal, if you go back far enough. There’s sugar in there because Taiwan is home to the sweetest people in the world. Finally, the tapioca pearls represent the Taiwanese spirit: hard-working, flexible, and enduring. Now, you must be thirsty after having to listen to that little speech. Let’s go grab something at the drink shop!

那你們最常點什麽飲料呢？ 我自己都喝伯爵紅茶加波霸！無糖去冰！跟我一樣無糖 🧋

[@LinustheTaiwanese]

雖然我自己很少喝飲料，但我最常點的就是珍珠奶茶，通常都喝半糖去冰，因為我還是希望有一點點甜～ 哈哈哈
