Ingredients:

  • 60g high-quality taro milk tea powder
  • 120ml filtered hot water
  • 240ml whole milk
  • 1 tsp condensed milk
  • 100g quick-cook tapioca pearls
  • 2 jasmine or black tea bags steeped in 100ml water
  • 30ml brown sugar syrup
  • 2 cups large ice cubes

Instructions:

  1. Boil water in a small saucepan. Add the 100g of tapioca pearls and cook for 5 minutes until chewy. Drain and immediately submerge the pearls in the brown sugar syrup to sweeten.
  2. Whisk the taro powder into 120ml of hot water until fully dissolved. Stir in the whole milk and condensed milk until well combined and lavender in color.
  3. Divide the syrupy boba between two tall glasses. Tilt and rotate the glasses to coat the sides with syrup. Fill with ice, pour the steeped tea over the ice, and top with the taro milk base.
