Recipe Summary Boba (Coconut Milk Black Tea With Tapioca Pearls)
Boba tea, or bubble tea, is a popular drink that originated from Taiwan. I made this coconut variation because I had coconut cream on hand and wanted something different from the regular black milk tea variation. This coconut version tastes just like the one you'll find in a bubble tea cafe.Ingredients | Soup Pearls Recipe7 cups cold water½ (8.8 ounce) package tapioca starch balls½ cup brown sugar½ cup white sugar4 cups brewed black tea (such as Lipton®), chilled1 (14 ounce) can coconut cream12 ice cubes1 cup milk⅔ cup white sugarDirectionsBring water to a boil in a large stockpot. Pour in tapioca and simmer for 25 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Remove from heat and let balls sit in water for 25 minutes.Return stockpot to the heat; simmer and stir for 25 minutes more. Remove from heat and let rest again until centers of the balls are no longer powder, another 25 minutes. Drain.Combine brown sugar and white sugar in a large bowl. Pour tapioca balls into the sugar mixture. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 15 minutes while preparing the tea.Process tea, coconut cream, ice, milk, and sugar together in a blender until combined.Scoop 1/4 cup of the tapioca into each tall glass and fill with tea.
