Hello @DeniGu , Thank you for introducing us to bubble tea, @TheRealKristin . I have seen wide varieties of tea in India , but bubble tea was a surprise. India has a rich Tea culture, where we get varieties of tea, milk tea, ginger tea, black tea, green tea and herbal tea etc. In response to your question about supporting local businesses, I’ve contributed by writing reviews for a couple of tea shops. Here are some of my reviews where I’ve shown support for small businesses in my area that are involved in tea.

Fantastic, @TheRealKristin !
Yes, bubble tea is you passion. When we talk about Bubble Tea in our family we often refer to Kristin from UK!
I still remember when you helped me in San Francisco to make the right decision for a kind of tea I only linked to kids stuff!

There is not much of a bubble tea in Bangladesh because it is not that popular in this country, simple tea and coffee and soft drinks or juices made in the recipe of the Indian continent are more popular.
Currently, it is summer time in Bangladesh and a very hot heatwave is going on so people are more attracted to fruit juice or traditional juice.
Therefore, small juice bars or soft drink businesses have started in various places. I try to buy juice/lacchi/sharbat from these small businesses to support them. But make sure they are clean and healthy

wooooow… Thanks @DeniGu … Amazing work @TheRealKristin for all those fresh and unique bubble teas. My daughter and I are big fans of bubble teas and we have trying many recipes and brands as well, be it local or international or regional brands. In Indonesia, we also have some local flavor, like Durian (either you hate it or love it) and palm sugar or gula aren, which is sooo good. Have you tried those ones as well?

In my locality, a young guy named Md Akhtar owns a roadside drinks shop called Crowd Zone whose signature item is bubble tea. This summer, many customers enjoy his bubble tea every day.

When someone starts a business in my area, I give them an idea about the map and open a Google Business Profile and teach them how to use it. Almost everyone is interested in maps and can grow their business by using it.
BTW thank you @DeniGu for sharing this interesting topic.

Hi @DeniGu Thank you very much for sharing. @TheRealKristin is really a very devoted and passionate person on this subject. I want to enjoy the bubble teas I have as she publishes reviews on this subject. In fact, although bubble teas are a distant taste to some cultures, they attract a lot of attention with such beautiful reviews and promotions.

Yayyy Kristin @TheRealKristin , you’re really deserve to be featured here. I love your enthusiasm and cheerfulness that really shows your passion towards bubble tea.
It was so nice to meet you back in 2019 and have you as our special guest during Community Live 2020. Your insights and positive energy were so amazing! 
I’m more into coffee than the sweet bubble tea, but I would like to share that Onezo is my favorite boba drink as the boba is tender, easy to chew, and the taste is less sweet.

Such a wonderfully written piece @DeniGu ! 
Thank you so much for inviting me to share my Love of Bubble Tea with everyone else around the world!
I hope my opinions and views will inspire others to visit more local boba tea shops and even leave reviews about them in the future! 
Happy to be a part of the Local Guides Community for Google Maps!

Hello @ShailendraOjha
I’ve had Palm Sugar when visiting Malaysia, but I’ve never had it added into a Chai before, in particular “jaggery tea”. But I enjoy it in a milk tea and used in other drinks too!
Infact, I think “jaggery” should be used in more recipes around the world as it offers a very unique sweet undertone inside bubble tea drinks! 
Thank you for your comment!

Hi @TusharSuradkar 
Thank you for your comment and kind words!
I am not sure if my passion alone made it become so popular, but I like to think I had a positive influence for the spread of the beverage into many different countries through my mentoring and enthusiasm!

Hello @Bellpian2470
I hope you will be able to find the perfect bubble tea for you one day!
I really enjoy the “Pink Drink” in Malaysia and even brought back some syrup to make at home on my last trip! 
Hey @EmekaUlor ! Great seeing you again. Hope you’re well.
Thanks for the comment! Hopefully you’ll be able to try some very tasty bubble tea soon. Although not everywhere makes good drinks, so do be careful! 
If you try it and don’t like it… go somewhere else and hopefully you’ll find a tasty place soon!
Hello Carlos @Carlos23_1
Thank you for your kind comment. It was so thoughtful and I appreciate the time you took to write it to me.
It has been quite the journey in my career, and I am grateful for the opportunities I’ve been given in life so far. Even during difficult days, I try to find the good in everything. I think this helps to keep me motivated to “move forward” in life through different seasons and changes.
You may have heard the saying before that “when one door closes, another will open”. If it doesn’t open for us, maybe we need to knock on a few doors and try opening them ourselves!?
Thank you for bringing inspiration to the Local Guides Community!
Kind regards,
