Bubble tea innovation is a popular beverage category, especially as the drink is now becoming exceedingly popular in the Western hemisphere. As a result, various brands are beginning to push the boundaries of the product, facilitating unforgettable experiences, eco-conscious solutions and more.
For those who want to entice their consumer base with special features and customization, technology allows for this. Answer Tea — a bubble tea innovation purveyor, utilizes new tech to print atop the foam of the beverage. Individuals can get a picture of their choosing superimposed on their drink or can opt in for a fortunetelling-style experience.
For the more sustainability-conscious entrepreneurs, bubble tea innovation also covers methods of consumption. Mickey Wu and Fang Shih's FLOAT, for example, is geared toward the special drink and is dedicated to abolishing the use of single plastic.
