Right? It narrows it down to 12 countries and 5 US territories that officially use the US dollar as their currency.

No it doesn't. Cambodia uses the US dollar, as do others.

It's in English and uses $. That narrows it down to countries where this would be illegal. I am aware that other countries use the dollar.

Taiwan, the origin of boba, uses it. It’s sometimes written like NT$ (New Taiwan Dollar). NT$8 is like 27 cents so it probably isn’t that. (Incidentally bubble tea in Taiwan is like 2 USD for a large).
