Where to get Pearls
where do you get the bubble tea pearls, or how at least do you make them?
 * The real dark-colored pearls can be purchased from a number of bubble tea-specific internet vendors. See the Wikipedia entry for some decent links.   However, if you are willing to settle for the white pearls, you may be able to find them at your local grocery store, near where you would find Jell-O puddings. Get real tapioca pearls, not instant, 'minute', or granules.  They are normally soaked overnight in water, then cooked for about an hour in fresh water.  A tea shop near me uses a slow cooker (crock pot) to cook them.  When they are done, they are drained and I believe they are ready for use.  Some people store them in a simple syrup.--Mdwyer 23:53, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Cup
What size is a cup? what is the metric unit?Sweetie candykim (discuss • contribs) 12:16, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

I worked out that a cup size is 237ml but I have added the metric sizes and altered the serving sizes accordingly Sweetie candykim (discuss • contribs) 12:30, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
