NATIONAL BUBBLE TEA DAY
What do tea and bubbles have in common? Together, they make a fantastic treat. Bubble Tea! On April 30, National Bubble Tea Day invites you to get adventurous and experience a growing flavorful menu of choices!
In the 1980s, the Taiwanese developed a beverage combining the refreshing goodness of tea, the wholesome creaminess of milk and the fun, delicious surprise of bubbles. The bubbles, also known as boba or pearls, are made from tapioca. The tea can be created with or without milk, ice, sugar, and toppings.
Whether you are 3 or 103, there is a tasty, extraordinary tea made with fresh ingredients for you to enjoy!
HOW TO OBSERVE
On National Bubble Tea Day, go classic or slush, milk tea or punch. If it’s your first, don’t let it be your last! Share a selfie with your favorite combination by using #NationalBubbleTeaDay on social media.

Kung Fu Tea is a tea-based beverage brand with 150+ locations specializing in Instagrammable, made-to-order tea. Kung Fu, in its purest essence, is the desire for self-improvement and to expand one’s capabilities beyond all limitations.
Here at Kung Fu Tea, we have shared that same desire since the day we were founded: April 30, 2010. Kung Fu Tea, a New Yorker founded and headquartered in New York City—holds the firm belief that it is our mission to continuously develop and improve our already stellar brand.

Kung Fu Tea has made it their mission to embrace three mottos:
Fresh: Real tea leaves are used to make the tea drinks. The tea is freshly brewed every 3 hours, while their best-selling bubbles (or boba) are cooked every 2 hours. All of their products are made with real Kung Fu.
Innovative: Kung Fu Tea is the first bubble tea brand to launch a mobile app for customers to earn, track, and redeem rewards.
Fearless: Kung Fu Masters not only include Kung Fu Tea’s founders, but also the employees and customers. Kung Fu Tea has a Brand Ambassador Program with over 100 members across the U.S. All Kung Fu Masters live by Kung Fu Tea’s “Fresh. Innovative.
