Homemade (easy) Thai Boba Tea Recipe
This recipe makes one drink.
Ingredients
1/3 cup tapioca pearls (boba), black sugar flavor
1 Thai tea bag
Half & half (amount depends on how creamy you want it)
2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
Ice
Directions
- Add the tea bag to 1/2 cup of boiling water; place in refrigerator for at least 1 hour. I leave the tea bag in but you can remove it if you don’t want a strong tea.
- Once tea is cool, prepare the boba by following directions on the packaging. Typically you will need to boil water, add pearls, boil for 2 minutes, and then remove from heat and stir for an additional 2 minutes.
- Rinse pearls quickly under cool water (this helps keep your drink cold).
- Fill a cup with plenty of ice, half and half, and maple syrup; stir.
- Add cooled tea.
- Add pearls.
Notes
- You could use regular sugar in place of maple syrup.
