Due to its distinctive recipe, the boba tea fad has gained popularity in other western nations, such as Canada and the U.K., and has continued to surge in its home region. The drink is now regarded as a mainstay. This well-liked sweetened tea is made with premium milk, tapioca pearls for sweetness, fruit powder, creamer, and sweeteners. In order to enhance Taiwan's presence in the food service industry, bubble milk tea has become a global cultural icon and represents Taiwan's culinary innovation.

COVID-19 Pandemic Caused Various Roadblocks for the Market

Government agencies were forced to impose stringent closures of eateries, farms, and factories in order to maintain safety precautions and implement social segregation as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. Transport delays have resulted from this, and the operation of both supplies (tea estates) and demand for consumption points has come to a halt due to a staff shortage and a decrease in consumer visits to coffee shops during the lockdown. The Indian Tea Association 2020 claims that the lockdown in the tea-growing districts, which resulted in a reduction in crop size as well as difficulties in logistics and shipping, has caused an average increase in tea prices of 25%–40%.

Rising Health Awareness to Drive Bubble Tea Consumption Significantly  

Due to the ease of customization of healthy drinks like ginger tea and boba teas, customers are being encouraged to switch to them due to the development of lifestyle illnesses such as obesity and diabetes related to the busy lifestyles of consumers.

Green tea-based milk tea has been shown in studies to be effective for reducing blood pressure and the risk of cancer. Due to the presence of diverse additions, such as yogurt, cream, fruit bits, and others, drinking bubble milk tea also helps the body's vitamin and mineral balance. The aforementioned factors propel the bubble tea market growth.

Further Report Findings

• Asia Pacific, which was valued at USD 0.96 billion in 2022, had the highest bubble tea market share. The nations with the highest sales are anticipated to be Vietnam and Taiwan. To draw customers and increase their market share, manufacturers and business owners in the boba tea sector are opening their own cafes and restaurants. For instance, Chen Shucheng launched Meme Xpress, a new bubble milk tea franchise, in Singapore in September 2020.


• The North America market emerged as the second-largest after Asia Pacific and is anticipated to hold onto that position for the duration of the projection period. The popularity of tea-based beverages is driving a modest increase in the consumption of this tea in North American nations. Meanwhile, the European market also saw a rise in pearl milk tea consumption around the same time as APAC countries.
