In a large pot over high heat, combine the water and Thai tea leaves. Bring the tea to a boil, then immediately pour the tea through a strainer into a heat-proof vessel to remove the tea leaves. Let the tea cool to room temperature.

Make the simple syrup: in a small pot over high heat, combine the sugar and water. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the syrup is clear.

Assemble the tea: divide the ice between 2 glasses, then add simple syrup, tea, and half-and-half.

In a medium pot over high heat, combine the water and tea bags. Bring to a boil, then remove the pan from the heat and let the tea cool to room temperature.

Bring a medium pot of water to boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, add the tapioca pearls and boil until softened, about 20 minutes.

Set the strainer with the pearls over a medium bowl. Add the brown sugar to the strainer and pour the hot water over.

Stir to dissolve the brown sugar. Soak the pearls in brown sugar syrup for 30 minutes, then store the bubbles and syrup separately until ready to serve.

Assemble the tea: Divide the pearls and ice between 2 glasses, then add the brown sugar syrup, tea, and half and half.

Stir with a wide-opening straw, then serve.

Homemade Bubble Tea (Boba Tea)

black tea

tapioca balls

heavy cream

Boil water. Boil 2 ¾ cup of water. If using an electric kettle with a temperature setting, set the water to 208°F. Use filtered water if possible.

Steep tea in hot water for 5 minutes.Combine tea and 2 ½ cups hot water and steep. (We&#039;re saving the leftover ¼ cup of hot water for the brown sugar simple syrup.)

Strain tea leaves and let tea cool.Using a teapot with an infuser makes straining the tea leaves super easy.

MAKE TEA

Stir together hot water and dark brown sugar until sugar dissolves.Take the remaining ¼ cup hot water and stir in ¼ cup brown sugar.

MAKE BROWN SUGAR SIMPLE SYRUP

Boil water and add tapioca balls.Boil 4 cups of water on the stovetop then add tapioca balls. In a couple of minutes, they&#039;ll start floating to the surface. Cover the pot and cook on medium heat for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally. (Follow directions on your tapioca ball packaging if you&#039;re using a different brand than the one I&#039;m using.)

Strain tapioca balls.

Combine tapioca balls and brown sugar simple syrup.Stir in dark brown simple syrup into the pot with the strained boba. Let cool slightly so it&#039;s warm but not boiling hot.

MAKE TAPIOCA BALLS

Lightly whip heavy cream and sugar. Cream froth is a lightly whipped heavy cream. Use a handheld milk frother and whip for 10 seconds. Cream should thicken slightly and should be pourable.

MAKE CREAM FROTH

Divide each component into two cups. Spoon tapioca balls in brown sugar simple syrup, add ice, then black tea, and top with cream froth. Stir together before drinking.

Best Homemade Bubble Tea

This beverage is like a cool breeze on a hot day! So refreshing and more than just a drink – it’s sippable dessert. 

This recipe will yield about 5 servings if portioned into 12 oz. glasses. Simple syrup, butterfly pea flower tea, and sweet coconut cream can all be made one day ahead and chilled, if desired. Boba pearls are best eaten the same day they are made.

Coconut Butterfly Pea Flower Boba Tea

coconut extract

8.8 oz. dried boba tapioca pearls quick cooking (5-minute type)

butterfly pea flower buds

coconut milk (13.5 oz.) (well shaken)

sweetened condensed milk

Make the simple syrup: Combine the water and sugar in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave for 2 minutes at 100% power. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. If granules remain, heat at full power in 1-minute intervals thereafter until the sugar is melted. Stir in the coconut extract. Transfer the bowl to the refrigerator to cool. If you don’t have a microwave, the simple syrup can be made in a saucepan on the stove top.

Simple syrup

Bring the water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Add the boba and cook for 7 minutes, stirring gently until the pearls float to the surface of the water. Cover the pot with a lid and cook for 3 more minutes. Remove the pot from the heat source and let it stand for 5 minutes. Drain the boba with a colander, and rinse them in cool water for 20 seconds. Remove the simple syrup from the refrigerator and transfer the boba to the simple syrup. Let stand until completely cool, about 1 hour. Or, speed cooling in the refrigerator, about 30 minutes.

Boba

Place the buds in a large glass bowl or container and pour over the boiling water. Stir the buds around and then let steep uncovered for 10-15 minutes. When the liquid is deep sapphire blue, strain out the buds using a sieve and transfer the tea to the refrigerator to cool.

Butterfly pea flower tea

Combine the coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk in a large glass measure. Whisk until completely smooth.

Sweet coconut cream

Put as little or as much boba as you like in the bottom of a 12-ounce glass (I used about 1/4 cup per glass).  Pour sweet coconut cream about 1/3 of the way up the glass. Add crushed ice and fill to the top. Pour the butterfly pea flower tea over the ice to fill to the top of the glass. Serve immediately with bubble tea straws or with spoons. Stir together before enjoying. Assemble more glasses as needed. Store the boba tea in its syrup in the refrigerator. Also store the coconut cream and butterfly pea flower in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Assemble

This delicious boba tea adds the delicate and sweet aroma of Jasmine, the health benefits of green tea and the chewy goodness of honey boba pearls.    Serve over ice with a reusable boba straw.
