True Boba vs. Other Boba: What’s the Difference?

What you put in your body matters. Most boba brands are filled with preservatives, artificial flavors, modified starches, and other unnecessary additives—things you wouldn’t expect in a simple tapioca pearl.

True Boba is different—the only boba with just one ingredient and no cooking required. We believe in a cleaner, healthier way to enjoy boba without the unnecessary junk. Our 100% tapioca flour, lab-tested boba eliminates the artificial additives so you can enjoy your drink worry-free.
