Method

Preparation of Ingredients

  1. 1

    Brew the Tea

    Boil water in a kettle. Once boiling, pour 2 cups of hot water over the black tea leaves or tea bags in a heatproof container. Steep for 5-7 minutes. Remove the leaves or bags and let the tea cool to room temperature.

  2. 2

    Cook the Tapioca Pearls

    In a separate pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of tapioca pearls and stir gently. Cook according to package instructions (typically 5-10 minutes) until they float to the top. Once cooked, drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

Mixing and Serving

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing cup or shaker, combine the brewed black tea, milk, sweetener, and flavor syrup. Stir or shake well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Bubble Tea

    In a tall glass, add 1 cup of cooked tapioca pearls. Fill the glass with ice cubes, then pour the tea mixture over the top. If desired, add extra tapioca pearls for an extra chewy texture.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Insert a wide straw into the glass and serve immediately. Enjoy your upgraded M3 regular size bubble tea!
