Mango Green Tea With Popping Bubbles At Food & Wine Festival's China Marketplace

Our friends over at the Disney Food Blog posted a drink this week that I am just dying to try out! The China Marketplace booth at the 2014 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is serving up "Mango Green Tea with Popping Bubbles." I'm so excited, because I absolutely love bubble tea.

The Mango Green Tea with Popping Bubbles being served uses a new type of boba (that's what the bubble components are called) it's a little different than the chewier tapioca pearls introduced in bubble tea throughout the United States. These "Popping Bubbles" are a thin seaweed derived gelatin that's filled with a flavorful mango-ish juice ready to burst open inside of your mouth. I was leery the first time I tried them at my local yogurt shop, but honestly they're just plain fun. If you're looking for an exciting new drink that's non-alcoholic to sip during your food tour be sure to mark this one down on your list.
