A BUBBLE T kiosk has opened today (Wednesday, March 1) at a popular Somerset shopping complex.

Part of the popular family-run high street café Street Shakes, the Bubble T cabin will be a permanent fixture in the Central Gardens at Clarks Village, Street.

The sweet bubble tea drinks are made by blending tea with milk, fruit and fruit juices, then adding tapioca pearls and shaking vigorously.

It has grown in popularity in the UK in recent years.

There are a variety of offerings at the Clarks Village venue, ranging from traditional milk tea with tapioca pearls, to adventurous fruit tea flavours mixed with tasty popping ‘boba’.

With a range of combinations to choose from, the freshly made drinks are completely customisable, with every drink made to order.

Shoppers can also indulge in some locally produced ‘Pops!’, the gourmet salted caramel popcorn treat, with each bag finished off with a dash of sea salt.

Paul Meyer, owner of Bubble T, said: "My wife Anne and I are so excited to open our new Bubble T kiosk at Clarks Village.

"The team there have been amazing and extremely helpful.

"Thank you also to Cllr Laura Wolfers who introduced us to the shopping outlet."

Chris Davis, centre director at Clarks Village, said: “We are delighted to welcome the local independent brand Bubble T to Clarks Village.

"We know that its unique and completely customisable drinks range will further enhance our offerings at the outlet, and we are sure that the new kiosk will prove to be a big hit with our guests.”
