Bubble Tea Training Workshop
Pearl Lemon Boba tea classes
London has always been a city that takes its tea seriously, and now its love affair with bubble tea is well and truly brewing. Pearl Lemon Boba‘s Bubble Tea Training Course is your hands-on passport into this fast-growing world. Whether you’re after a fun afternoon out in Fulham, planning to add boba to your café menu in Marylebone, or ready to open your very own bubble tea shop somewhere between Shoreditch and Notting Hill, this course is built for you.

Our training team reflects the diversity of London itself, bringing expertise rooted in British, South Asian, and European food and business culture to every session, welcoming participants from every background and every corner of the world.
London Has Always Loved Its Tea, Now It's Falling for Boba
The British cuppa isn’t going anywhere. But walk down Carnaby Street on a Friday evening or past Boxpark Shoreditch on a Saturday afternoon, and you’ll see what’s happening alongside it: bubble tea queues stretching out the door.
London is now one of the fastest growing bubble tea markets in Europe, driven by its multicultural neighbourhoods, food curious young professionals, and a city wide willingness to embrace the new whilst holding onto tradition. From the Taiwanese night markets where boba was born, to the afternoon tea culture that defines this city, the two worlds are closer than you’d think: quality ingredients, precision preparation, and the simple pleasure of a drink made with care.
At Pearl Lemon Boba, we sit right at that intersection. Our training doesn’t just teach you recipes, it teaches you how to read a London market, serve a London customer, and build a business that genuinely belongs in this city.

Why London's Aspiring Boba Operators Train With Us
Most bubble tea courses hand you a recipe sheet and call it a day. At Pearl Lemon Boba, you train inside a real, operational bubble tea business, one that has already served thousands of customers on Fulham Road and in Marylebone, right here in London.
Your mentors, Deepak Shukla and Axel Edouard, aren’t guest lecturers; they are the operators behind the brand. They’ve navigated London’s licensing requirements, sourced suppliers that meet UK food safety standards, built menus that sell in SW6, and developed franchise-ready processes from the ground up.
When you train with us, you learn what actually works in a London context: which drinks perform best in a city that runs on cold brew and matcha as much as traditional tea, how to price competitively in Chelsea versus a pop-up at Brixton Market, and how to handle the real operational challenges no recipe course will ever prepare you for.
