sebenarnya boba dan bubble tea ni wujud pada masa yg sama, around tahun 1980an

waktu tu bubble tea tak famous lagi, air dihidang dalam cawan macam gini

tapi bila masuk zaman 1990an, setelah mesin seal plastic dicipta, bubble tea jadi sgt kemas, convenient dan mudah dibawa
kembali kepada perbincangan kita, dalam zaman 1980an, boba dan bubble wujud bersama

cumanya yg membezakannya ialah, boba lebih besar dari bubble

tapi waktu tu cuma dipanggil bubble kecil/bubble besar, tak ada nama lagi, sehingga lah seorang peniaga air dapat idea
pada waktu yg sama, Amy Yip 叶子楣, seorang artis Taiwan yg baru meningkat popularitynya, berlakon dalam movie "The Inspector Wears Skirts ll" atau
霸王花 ll
🔊 bà wáng huā
yg literally bermaksud Bunga Rafflesia/Pakma

di mana Jackie Chan menjadi producer kpd movie ini
nak dijadikan cerita, media pada waktu tersebut mengatakan Amy Yip famous disebabkan dadanya yg besar 🤭

maka panggilan 波霸 (bōbà) melekat dgn Amy Yip memandangkan,
1. 波 adalah slang/panggilan buah dada besar
2. 霸 dari movie 霸王花
maka, peniaga air yg nak bezakan antara bubble besar dan kecil pun gunakan

bubble
珍珠
🔊 zhēn zhū
untuk bubble biasa

dan

Boba
波霸
🔊 bō bà
untuk bubble BESAR

so the next time korang minum boba tea, ingatlah apa maksud sebenarnya #ifyouknowwhatimean 🤭
