Bubble Tea - Black Milk Tea Recipe

Prepare the Black Tea

Boil the water in a kettle. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the black tea leaves. Steep for 5-7 minutes, then strain the tea into a separate container and let it cool.

Cook the Tapioca Pearls

In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add the tapioca pearls and cook according to package instructions (usually about 5-10 minutes). Once cooked, drain and rinse under cold water.

Combine Ingredients

In a mixing glass, combine the cooled black tea, milk, and sugar. Stir well until the sugar is fully dissolved.

Assemble the Bubble Tea

In a serving cup, add the cooked tapioca pearls first. Pour the tea and milk mixture over the pearls. Add ice cubes and stir gently to combine.

Serve

Serve immediately with a wide straw to enjoy the tapioca pearls.
