Boba Milk Tea Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook Tapioca Pearls

    In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add tapioca pearls and stir gently. Cook according to package instructions (usually about 5-10 minutes) until they become translucent. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Brew Tea

    In a separate pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat and add black tea leaves (or tea bags). Let steep for about 5 minutes, then strain and discard leaves or bags.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large glass, combine the brewed tea, milk, and sugar or sweetener. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved.

  4. 4

    Serve Hot or Iced

    For hot boba milk tea, add cooked tapioca pearls directly to the tea mixture and serve warm. For iced boba milk tea, place ice cubes in a glass, add tapioca pearls, and pour the tea mixture over the top. Stir and enjoy!
