How many calories in bubble tea?
Bubble tea contains 95 kcal per 100 g. A standard 400 ml serving would therefore contribute roughly 380 kcal, though this varies considerably depending on sugar levels, milk type, and the amount of tapioca pearls included.
Is bubble tea vegan?
Bubble tea can be vegan — the base recipe of tea, tapioca pearls, and sugar contains no animal products, and this formulation is listed as both vegan and dairy-free. However, versions made with cow's milk or egg-based pudding toppings would not qualify, so it is worth checking the specific recipe.
Is bubble tea high in sugar?
Bubble tea contains 14 g of sugars per 100 g, which is relatively high for a beverage. In a typical 400 ml serving, that translates to around 56 g of sugar, most of which comes from added syrups and sweetened tapioca pearls rather than naturally occurring sources.
