I've never tried it, but the idea of the tapioca pearls seems unappealing, due to some food texture issues I have. I used to like Starbucks Chai Lattes though--especially iced (tried one iced on a whim and enjoyed it, so kept getting them). Well, Soy Chai Lattes due to lactose intolerance. Now I kind of want one of those...
