Report
This Brown Sugar Bubble Milk Tea (Boba) is a creamy iced tea sweetened with dark brown sugar, giving it a complex flavor with a caramel note. Adding chewy tapioca pearls makes this drink so fun to enjoy in summer.

Ingredients
For the Brown Sugar Syrup
- 4 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons water
For the Tea
- 1 tablespoon black tea
- 1 cup hot water at 208°F or 97°C
- ice
- 1/3 cup cooked tapioca pearls (more or less to your liking)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream ( more or less to your desired creaminess)
Instructions
- To a small saucepan, add dark brown sugar and 3 tablespoons of water. Stir to combine and simmer over medium heat for about 2 minutes until the mixture slightly thickens. Remove from the heat.
- Quickly rinse your teapot with hot water, then add black tea. Pour 1 cup of hot water into the pot, cover and steep for 4-5 minutes.
- Pour the tea into a glass (or jug) over 6-8 ice cubes to cool it immediately.
- Divide tapioca pearls between serving glasses, then divide the brown sugar syrup and the tea. Add some ice cubes and then add heavy cream. Stir and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- If you have a sweet tooth, you may want to increase the amount of brown sugar syrup by using 5 tablespoons of packed dark brown sugar and 4 tablespoons of water. The more syrup you use, the deeper the color of this drink.
- If you like stronger tea flavor, you can use more black tea, for example, 1 1/2 tablespoons of black tea instead of 1 tablespoon.
- If you want the milk tea to be rich and creamy like at bubble tea shops, definitely use heavy cream. With milk, the body will be much thinner.
