How to order a Bubble Tea in Chinese
 
Over the years bubble tea has gone through many changes and become much more than just a simple milk tea drink with tapioca pearls and ice. Nowadays, there are a multitude of different flavors and variations.
Let’s have a look at some of the most popular flavors and variations you’ll find today.
 
Brown Sugar Bubble Tea (黑糖珍珠奶茶 hēitáng zhēnzhū nǎichá)
Taro Bubble Tea (芋头珍珠奶茶 yùtou zhēnzhū nǎichá)
Matcha Bubble Tea (抹茶珍珠奶茶 mǒchá zhēnzhū nǎichá)
Cheese Foam Tea (奶盖茶 zhēnzhū nǎi gài chá)
Fruit Bubble Tea (水果珍珠茶 shuǐguǒ zhēnzhū chá)
 
Have you ever gone into a bubble tea shop, looked at the menu and felt completely overwhelmed or confused by all the different options?
Here is a guide on how to order Bubble Tea in Chinese:
 
Step 1: Choose your flavor
First off what kind of bubble tea do you want? Most menus will be split into different sections such as: bubble milk tea, classic tea, fruit tea etc.
The cashier may start of by asking you:
今天要什么?(jīntiān yào shénme) – What do you want today?
You can reply:
我要一杯XX珍珠奶茶 (wǒ yào yī bēi XX zhēnzhūnǎichá) – I want a cup of XX bubble tea. (Put your preferred flavour where XX is).
 
Here are some popular different types:
Milk tea – 奶茶 (nǎichá)
Pearl milk tea – 珍珠奶茶 (zhēnzhū nǎichá)
Fruit tea – 水果茶 (shuǐguǒ chá)
Cheese foam tea – 奶盖茶 (nǎi gài chá)
Original/Classic tea – 原味茶/经典 (yuánwèi/jīngdiǎn chá)
Smoothie – 冰沙 (bīng shā)
 
Next up let’s look at some popular different flavours:
Taro – 芋头 (yùtou)
Chocolate – 巧克力 (qiǎokèlì)
Brown sugar – 黑糖 (hēitáng)
Caramel – 焦糖 (jiāotáng)
Matcha – 抹茶 (mǒchá)
Oreo – 奥利奥 (àolìào)
Honey – 蜂蜜 (fēngmì)
 
Step 2: Choose your ice and sugar level
After you’ve chosen what flavour or variety of bubble tea you want, you’ll need to decide what ice and sugar level you want.
How many different ice and sugar levels are available may differ from place to place, however these should be the general options:
 
Lots of ice – 多冰 (duō bīng)
Regular ice – 正常冰 (zhèngcháng bīng)
Less ice – 少冰 (shǎo bīng)
No ice – 去冰 (qù bīng)
Hot – 热 (rè)
 
Full sugar (100%) – 全糖 (quán táng)
Less sugar (70%) – 少糖 (shǎo táng)
Half sugar (50%) – 半糖 (bàn táng)
Low sugar (30%) – 微糖 (wēi táng)
No sugar (0%) – 无糖 (wú táng)
 
The cashier will ask you: “甜度、冰塊 (块)?” (tiándù, bīngkuài?) “Sweetness and ice?”
Then you would reply: “X糖、X冰。” (X táng, X bīng). “X-sugar, X ice”.
 
Step 3: Add-Ons/Toppings
Lastly we have step number three: add-ons/toppings.
Tapioca pearls – 珍珠 (hēnzhū)
Coconut jelly – 椰果 (yē guǒ)
Pudding – 布丁 (bùdīng)
Grass jelly – 仙草 (xiān cǎo)
Red bean – 红豆 (hóngdòu)
Sago – 西米 (xī mǐ)
Aloe vera – 芦荟 (lúhuì)
Cheese foam – 奶盖 (nǎi gài)
