Here are the simple steps to make delicious boba tea at home –
Step 1 - Perfect Your Pearls
Start by cooking your tapioca pearls according to the package instructions – usually involving boiling them until they're soft and chewy, then rinsing with cold water. For that essential sweetness, immediately soak your cooked pearls in a simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water, heated until dissolved) or a brown sugar syrup for about 15-30 minutes.
Step 2 - Brew Your Base Tea
Then make a tea base. Milk tea traditionally uses strong black tea such as Assam or Earl Grey, you can even enjoy a green tea or fruit infusions. Boil it rather strong, and assist it to cool. This concentrated brew will help your boba tea have a rich taste.
Step 3 - Sweeten and Cream It Up
After the tea is cooled off, it is time to mix in the sweetness and richness. Add whatever quantity of sugar, or honey, or condensed milk you may want, and stir till it is melted. Next, add your preferred milk - whole milk, oat milk, almond milk or even soy milk works well - the more creamy the better.
Step 4 - Assemble Your Boba Creation
Take a tall glass and scoop your prepared and sweetened boba pearls on the bottom freely. Put ice cubes in the cup and then add cool sweetened milk and tea mixture slowly on the ice and pearls. Watch as the mixture combines beautifully.
Step 5 - Sip and Enjoy Your Homemade Bliss
Give your boba tea a gentle stir with a wide straw, ensuring the pearls are evenly distributed and the flavours are perfectly mixed. Now, take a satisfying sip and savour your homemade bubble tea masterpiece, a delightful blend of chewy pearls and refreshing tea, crafted exactly to your liking!
