Brown Sugar Milk Tea

BROWN SUGAR BOBA PEARL

1. Combine water and brown sugar in a pan. Simmer over very low heat until dissolved.
2. Add 1 tablespoon of tapioca flour and stir until fully incorporated.
3. Turn off heat then add the remaining tapioca flour. Stir until dough is formed.
4. Transfer to a flat surface and knead until smooth. Place a plastic foil on top of the dough. Flatten using a rolling pin to about 1 cm thick, then cut into small squares.
5. Roll the pieces into small balls then place them in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of tapioca flour. Shake the bowl lightly every now and then to make sure the pearls are covered with flour and not sticking together.

BROWN SUGAR SYRUP

2. Add 2 cups of brown sugar and stir. Leave it to boil for another 5 minutes.

DRINK ASSEMBLY

2. Add milk and ice, then stir them all together with the straw.
