Is Bubble tea healthy for you? Home made bubble tea is exactly what you put into it. in capacity so they are almost double the capacity of a regular 250ml/8oz cup. I bought some reusable metal ones online.īubble tea glasses: I used tall Hiball glasses that were 450ml/15flozs. Otherwise make it fresh and let it cool (or serve it hot if that's how you prefer bubble tea).īubble tea straws: you will need fatter straws 12mm/0.47inches in diameter for bubble tea. I leave it to steep either overnight or an hour before. I actually like cold steeping the tea because I like cold bubble milk tea.

I used 1/3 cup/50g/1.7ozs of dried tapioca pearls (weight before rehydrating) per glass of tea or drink. They firm up and lose their deliciously addictive chewiness within 30 minutes or so.
Important tip with tapioca pearls: ONLY make the pearls when you are ready to drink the bubble tea. I prefer the other ones because they are faster, don't require boiling and taste like brown sugar but these will work in a pinch too. You can buy these at Asian grocery stores I bought mine at my local Food Works supermarket.Īnother type of tapioca pearl that takes 5 minutes boiling to prepare. These newer ones are amazing and just have to sit in some boiled water for 2 minutes and that's it.
Prior to these there were tapioca pearls that you had to boil for 30 minutes or so. You can make your own tapioca pearls but it's so much easier (obviously) to buy them and these ones above are the easiest and take just 2 minutes to make. Which bubble tea pearls to use? My favourite are these brown sugar bubble tea pearls. You can easily do it if you follow the directions carefully. This is the most challenging of the three (although really not that hard). This bubble milk tea doesn't actually contain any tea and is on the sweet side. It is named tiger because of the eye catching stripes formed with the milk and brown sugar. The third is a brown sugar tiger bubble milk tea.

The base of this is like a strawberry frappe and the topping is an addictive light cheesecake topping with a touch of salt! It usually doesn't contain any tapioca pearls (but feel free to add them if you want, it's your tea!).
The second is my favourite: a strawberry cheese milk tea made with fresh strawberries and a cheesecake foam topping. The first is a classic Hong Kong bubble milk tea and is the easiest milk tea to make.

The first are tapioca bubbles which are chewy and sweet. There are generally two types of "bubbles". You suck these up with supersized straws and it's addictive, fun and tasty.
