Tapioca pearls are made mostly from tapioca starch, processed from the bitter-cassava plant, sometimes called manioca or yuca in some parts of the world.

OBS

Tapioca pearls (or coconut jelly or gulaman) provide textural difference to the drink. Instead of just taking down liquid, the beverage drinker now has something to chew on -- and the result is one interesting beverage experience.
