The 15 Best Bubble Tea Shops in Miami!

The first thing that people think of when it comes to Miami is apparently South Beach, famous for its turquoise shoreline, amazing architecture and pulsating nightlife. Neighbourhoods ooze newfound energy out of homegrown restaurants, hipster bars, and of course, bubble tea shops!

The people of Miami constantly needs a pick-me-up from the heat every time, especially in the summer. It only makes sense that the art of bubble tea has rooted itself in Miami culture, as it’s arguably the best cooler drinks ever.
