somebody blows bubbles into the tea with a pipette, that is the serbian way.
Its not bubble tea unless it has Serb spit in it.

Which ‘Italian heritage immigrants’? Are you saying pizza is an American invention?
Yanks do honestly say that lol
-
Ask them if they have Serbian bubble tea
BUBBLE TEA JE SRBIJA

This has bugged me for twenty years.
“Bubble tea” refers to tea that is mixed in a shaker, creating a small layer of bubbles when it is served.
“Bubble tea with pearls” is the one with tapioca pearls in the bottom. Milk tea is tea made with milk.
You're referring to "bubble foam tea", which refers to the foam.
"Bubble tea" is something different and refers to the tapioca pearls.
At least, that's the distinction Wikipedia gives, which seems to match the given origins of bubble tea

Tbf they'll do that to the food or drinks regardless of what you order

It's like the first time in any restaurant or food place where you're not familiar with the food:
Ask the server what they recommend.
They always recommend something that's quick and easy to make and makes the restaurant more money, there's no way for a server to know what you would like, do your own research in advance before ordering somewhere it takes 10 Mins at most

This is a wild take. Genuinely worried about how you are viewing the folks you interact with.
I spent a fair amount of time working in the food industry. It is way easier to just say what you legitimately would recommend rather then come up with a bizzare lie.

Are the yanks okay?

Italians should be more like the Japanese and embrace change and just appropriate those fusion dishes and pretend like they invented it. Like if the Japanese were like Italians salmon sushi would have never become a Japanese dish. Before Norwegian salmon farmers came to Japan to convince Japanese chefs to sell raw salmon in the 80’s, salmon sushi didn’t exist since wild salmon often contains parasites. If the Japanese were like Italians they would have scoffed at the idea to sell and eat salmon sushi.

I like to narrow it down to 2 choices and ask which they prefer

The vast majority of the time I've every asked any worker what is popular or recommended at their restaurant I either get a confused or annoyed look and some generic recommendation, which makes sense most of these positions are exhausting and pay shit, having to decide recommendations for some customer is extra work they don't need

Not aware of "Serbian bubble tea" but after looking up the place in the Google maps, it has Shiba Inu logo, a neon sign that reads "Made in Thailand", and a general poppy Asian milk tea shop vibe. The frappes and milk tea don'tlook bad but yeah, misleading image.

Well compared to the Italians the Japanese are super progressive especially in their culinary development , they still have their traditional dishes but also are trying new things even with their traditional dishes.

Ive never built up the courage to try even a single bubble tea, partly because its stupid expensive, but mostly because im worried about saying the wrong thing and having people think im strange. Like if you asked for extra sugar on your hot dog or something.
Finding that there's mad purists arguing about what is or isnt doesnt make this any easier.
Just pick the one that looks like it has the flavors you enjoy, then that's usually it, unless there is an option to pick sugar / ice amounts. In Berlin they also let you pick what "bubbles" you wanted : you had the classic boba with some flavour inside them, but also chunks of jelly, or what I guess was tapioca pearls (more chunky, no juice inside).
Or you do like I always did in China : point to the one that looks best and hope for the best
