Hong Kong Milk Tea Bubble Tea
Description
Hong Kong Milk Tea Bubble Tea is crafted by steeping finely ground black Ceylon tea in boiling water, then mixing the hot brew with sweetened condensed milk to create a rich, velvety tea base. Steeping for several minutes allows deep extraction of tea flavor. The mixture is chilled, often overnight, which mellows the flavors and creates a smooth complexion in the tea.
The tapioca pearls add a chewy, slightly sweet bite that contrasts nicely with the creamy tea, making the drinking experience more engaging. Serving over ice keeps the tea refreshingly cold without diluting the intensity. Optional grass jelly can introduce a subtle herbal note and additional texture variety.
This bubble tea is served in a tall glass with ice and wide straw suited to sipping both tea and pearls together. It can be enjoyed as a refreshing beverage during warmer weather or as a comforting sweet drink.

- 3 tablespoon black tea finely ground, Ceylon variety

- Place the tea into a tea pot with a mesh strainer. Pour the boiled water over top of the tea. Let it steep for 3-5 minutes.
