Very Popular Bubble Tea

“Bubble tea is very popular, especially to Asians, but now, more and more people from different backgrounds like the taste of it. I'm no expert at this, but I do know how to make it. It's simple but some of the ingredients may be a little tough to find. Just be patient and look for them in Chinese grocery stores. It is worth the trouble!”

This drink is just wierd. the tea was too sweet for me and the pearls were chewy. I used chai cause i thought that sounded yummy. I don't about this one. Just weird. All my friends love bubble tea, so i guess I'll have to try the stuff in the coffee shops. Fun to try. ty

I have tried this recipe several times. I found I had to cook my tapioca for much longer. Cook it until the tapioca is clear. Also after the ice is added the tea is a bit watered down. I used less ice the second time to keep the tea a little stronger. The flavor was good but just not strong enough for my taste. I might try it again with chai tea. I am sure that would be very yummy.

For the benefit of all those unfamiliar with tapioca, it is basically "SAGO DANA". Derived from the sap of the Sago palm. Sagu Dana is a widely prescribed preparation for curing Diarrhea all over asia, especially for children and is a rich source of calcium. It can also be used as a comfort food for children by simply cooking it with some milk and sugar. If you have trouble searching for Tapioca, try asking for "SAGO DANA".

Definitely cook the tapioca at least 35-40 minutes. I run a bubble tea shop in Corpus Christi, TX 7314 SPID, and we use Choobees because you don't have to cook them...much easier! No cooking required!!

This recipe works fairly well. However, I would recommend cooking your tapioca pearls for longer... 30 minutes or more. After the said 20 minutes, just watch the pearls until they are cooked to your preference. Also, when storing your pearls, coat them with honey or sugar syrup so they do not stick together. If you want flavoured bubble tea, simply add frozen juice concentrate in the flavour of your choice. Keep adding it tsp at a time until it is flavourful enough. Chocolate syrup is also quite good.
