Fishy Green Ale?

It's a variation of Bubble Tea or Boba Tea, which is a popular Asian style drink. If there are Asian quick service restaurants in your area, you may find one that has it. I've had the Fishy Green Ale, and while I enjoyed it, I found that the size of the drink the give you was too much for me. I got tired by the end of it. I found the Fizzy Orange Juice more refreshing for the hot sun. I never tasted cinnamon in the Fishy Green Ale, but the the Fizzy Orange Juice has cinnamon and sugar around the top of the glass, like a margarita. The fishy green ale is more of a milky drink. I wouldn't be surprised if the green part is Honeydew, as it's the right color and one of the popular flavors, and the tapioca or boba pearls are probably blueberry. But it would also explain why I got tired of it, because I'm not a big fan of honeydew.

Thank you. DH is allergic to melons. I will be sure he doesn't try it.
 
It's been a while since I had the drink, but it didn't really remind me of boba tea. Boba tea tapioca balls are rubbery and chewy- the blueberry pearls at the bottom of the Fishy Green Ale pop instantly when you bite them and release their own juice. Unless I'm remembering it wrong?

I googled...apparently, the traditional boba, are as you described and actually made from tapioca and then sweetened, and had to be cooked. Popularity in drinks started in Taiwan in the 80's.

But now they also have "popping boba" which are the exploding kind, and those are about 4 years old. These are made from a seaweed extract (to form the gelatin-like ball and filled with fruit juice. They are more easily customizable so their usage and popularity has also "exploded."

Cooool. I evidently had the tapioca ones (I commented they were like unflavored gummi bears), but the juicy ones could be fun in a drink. Just finished my photo book (shipped today--yay!) from our trip, and I'm already ready to go back to DA just to try more drinks and snacks!!
 
It tasted like toothpaste water to me. My party of 3 tried it and some us us really like mint but this $5 drink just tasted icky. The server actually switched it out to a delicious orange drink with a cinnamon ane sugar encrusted rimmed drink instead...it was divine!
 

Wish I would have known they would replace it - we just threw ours away.
