"Yeah. So, like, they're these little balls of starch that are boiled, kind of like pasta or couscous. Except bigger than couscous. Oh, or sago pudding, if you've had that? Did they invent that yet in your time? But anyway. So in this case they're boiled till they get soft... kind of a bouncy chewy texture? And you put them in the tea, and you drink them with it. It's fun, it's like a drink and a snack at the same time."
