Real Tapioca

The boba pearls are made from real tapioca, sweetened and flavored and coated with a gentle amount of syrup. They are chewy and delicious, just like the ones from bubble tea cafes.

Ready in Seconds

J Way's boba is microwaveable and ready in 20 seconds with minimal effort. Compared to dry tapioca pearls that take 5-45 minutes, there are no pots and pans necessary.

No Preservatives

Unlike dry tapioca pearls which often includes a hefty amount of chemicals as a preservative, we apply high-pressure sterilization to preserve the boba without any artificial preservatives.

Customers are mixed about the size of the product. Some mention that the portion size is ok, while others say that the pouches are very small and they would use two packs for one drink. The texture is great, and the flavor is even better than they thought it would be. However, some customers also mention that it's expensive and the portion is small. The pearls are rather small and the caramel taste is light.

Customers are mixed about the ease of cooking. Some mention it's very convenient for cooking your own boba, and perfect for making bobo tea at home. They say it only needs 20 seconds to make and even has stove top instructions. However, some say it takes a lot longer to fully cook than the package states, and takes about 3 minutes to boil. Some customers also mention that the pearls are flavorless and take forever to soften up enough to be edible.

"...them for 20 seconds because my microwave is 1000W, and they cooked perfectly, nice and chewy...." Read more

"...Perfect for making our boba tea at home." Read more

13 customers mention0 positive13 negative

Customers are disappointed with the durability of the boba. They say it crumbles in the middle and is weak. Some customers also mention that the bags were torn and the product was not of major store quality.

"...These bobas are rubbery and solid to the core, with a very unpleasant texture--like chewing on a ball of wax...." Read more

"This is ok but nothing to rave over. It's kind of weak but has lots of sugar. It's too sweet for me. Other boba tea drinks don't have this much sugar." Read more

"This was super easy to make boba. Not major store quality, but so much easier than making it and good for the at home boba tea fix." Read more

THE BEST ON THE MARKET.
5 Stars
THE BEST ON THE MARKET.
I’m a brown sugar boba addict. At $6 - $12 a pop it can put a massive hole in your wallet, plus you can’t control the flavor or amount of sugar. These instant boba are THE BEST - and I’ve tried about 12 different brands - paired with Dede 3 in 1 milk tea you have the best home boba there is for about $2.00 a drink (2024 prices). Huge improvement in money and I can choose how sweet to make it!
