Instructions
Prepare The Boba
Boil The Boba: Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Add the tapioca pearls and cook according to the package instructions, typically about 20 minutes, until they are chewy and fully cooked.
Sweeten The Boba: Once cooked, drain the boba using a strainer and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Transfer to a bowl and mix with 1 tablespoon of honey or sugar, allowing them to soak up the sweet flavor.
Brew The Tea
Brew Your Tea: Brew 1 cup of strong tea, using either black or green tea according to your preference. Let it cool to room temperature, or chill in the refrigerator for a faster cooling process.
Prepare The Strawberry Mixture
Blend The Strawberries: Combine the strawberries with 1-2 tablespoons of honey or sugar (adjust according to your sweetness preference). Blend until smooth. For a thinner consistency, you can add a little water.
Assemble Your Strawberry Boba Tea
Layer The Boba: Spoon the sweetened boba into glasses.
Add Ice: Fill the glasses with ice cubes to the desired level.
Pour In The Tea: Slowly pour the brewed tea over the ice, leaving some room for the strawberry mixture.
Top With Strawberry Mixture: Gently pour the strawberry mixture over the tea, creating a beautiful layering effect.
Mix And Enjoy: Give your Strawberry Boba Tea a good stir to mix all the layers. Add a splash of milk or a milk alternative for a creamier texture.
