Bubble Tea Recipes

• Low-fat milk, 1 cup
• Water, ½ cup
• Tapioca pearls, ½ cup
• Sugar, 2 tablespoons
• Red, black, green, or orange pekoe, 1 tea bag

As per the package instructs, cook the tapioca pearls accordingly. Also, you can boil 3 cups of water, add the pearls in, stir it, and cook for about 30 minutes. Place a lid over the pot while the tapioca pearls are boiling. Once they turn plump and soft, leave it in the pot 30 minutes. Later, scoop all the pearls out and place them in a clean bowl.

Pour couple of tablespoons of water from the pot itself. Now add 1 tablespoon of sugar and honey. Mix everything completely. To prepare the tea, take one cup boiling water and steep the tea bag for 10 minutes. Place the prepared tea in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to chill.

The sugar and honey will keep the tapioca pearls soft till you have to use them. In a blender, add in mango chunks, low-fat milk, water (depending on how diluted you want the tea to be), and sugar. Blend the liquids till it turns into a smooth consistency. Mix the mango blend with the tea and the tapioca pearls.
