Chocolate Milk Tea
Description
This Chocolate Milk Tea starts with steeping black tea bags in boiling water, then mixing in granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and optionally coffee to enhance depth. The sweetened tea base is combined with cooked tapioca pearls and plant-based milk. Ice can be added for a cold version.
The resulting beverage has the robustness of black tea rounded by rich chocolate flavor and creaminess from the milk. The tapioca pearls contribute a chewy, textural contrast that is a hallmark of bubble tea drinks. Adjusting sugar, cocoa, or milk ratios allows customization to balance sweetness or richness.
Chocolate Milk Tea can be shaken with ice for quick chilling. Consuming fresh is advised as tapioca pearls harden over time, with best flavor within a few hours. Using different dairy-free milk options affects creaminess, enabling tuning for desired mouthfeel.
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup tapioca pearls cooked
- ¾ cup water boiling
- 2 bags black tea
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon coffee optional
- 1 cup plant-based milk 1 cup
- ice (optional)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, add the ½ cup of boiling water and tea bag. Cover and let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Remove the tea bags, add the sugar, cocoa powder, coffee (if using). Whisk until fully combined.
- Add the tapioca pearls to a glass, then add plenty of ice if using, the tea cocoa mixture, plant-based milk, and stir. Taste and add more sugar if needed.
Notes
- Chill the tea quickly by shaking with ice.
- Adjust creaminess by varying types and amounts of plant-based milk or creamer.
- Modify sweetness, cocoa, and tea strength to taste.
- Consume tapioca pearls within 3-4 hours as they harden over time.
