Juicebangbang, located in Sweifieh Mall, 3rd Floor |
And there has been this place I have been wanting to go to for a long time, well before Ramadan - and now I have finally made it. juicebangbang! It's a bubble tea house. Yes, you can get bubble tea in Amman. Apparently it is originally from Taiwan, but I discovered it in Singapore, where it is widely available as well. The original is cold tea with milk and tapioca pearls. The pearls are obviously the bubble part. Yum! It's the kind of stuff either you find it of no interest at all or you get instantly addicted to it. You guessed, I am part of the 2nd group. The fun thing is I have never been able to drink milk in my tea - never. But this is just soo yummy!
So they are offering the standard bubble tea and then you can also create your own drink: flavoured with crushed ice and bubbles, you can add milk or you can add yogurt. I think the concept is great and very refreshing compared to other stuff that you can find in Amman. Price: between JD2 and JD3.50.
I have been twice since the beginning of the week. The first time, I got vanilla tea and yesterday I tried it with Jasmine tea. The second one is a great lighter option with no milk and just as good with those bubbles
The black in the bottom are the tapioca pearls |

both teas you tried sound refreshing. I had never heard of bubble tea, glad I discovered it via you.
I have never heard of bubble tea! It sounds good though. We're going on a vacation to Dubai next month, I'll have to see if they have it there so that I can try it.
@ Croatian_Latina: when you go to london you can try it...there are a couple of places in China town that sells it :D
@ Scoop: They mioght have it in Dubai, didn't see it last we were there, but maybe in one of the big malls... I never expected to find it here!
Glad I made you discover something haha
hey thnx for the post, been lookin for bubble tea in amman for a long time, shukran habbibi, thanks!
Hey Bown arrow! You are welcome, but they are closed right now as they change location... they are staying in the same mall but are going down on the ground floor. Check out on Facebook they have a page, they should update as to when they are going to reopen... Looking forward to it :)
Hehehehe.. I had my first bubble tea 3 weeks ago in Vancouver. The funny thing my Canadian friends asked me if we have it in Jordan, and I said NO! I'll tell them tom about my new discovery haha, thanks Babs :)
You are right, bubble tea comes from Taiwan. I lived in Taiwan for 4 years and never touched bubble tea! When I moved to New Zealand, I had one and LOVED it. I kicked myself for not trying one in Taiwan!
