Mango Green Tea Boba
Taiwan
Fresh and fruity—light green tea with sweet mango, usually with fruit jellies or popping boba.
The Story
Fruit tea boba emerged as a lighter alternative to milk teas, and mango with green tea became one of the most popular combinations. The tropical sweetness of mango complements green tea's freshness without overwhelming it. Often served with coconut jelly, aloe, or popping boba instead of tapioca for a completely different textural experience.

Brewing Tips
Don't over-steep the green tea or it becomes bitter against the mango. Fresh mango puree beats syrup every time. Popping boba (juice-filled spheres) add a fun burst with each bite. This is meant to be light and refreshing, not filling.
