Ingredients

  • 1 cup of cooked tapioca pearls
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 ½ cup of boiling water
  • 2 bags of green tea
  • 2 ripe mangoes, cubed or 2 cups of frozen mango
  • 1 ½ cups of plant-based milk
  • ¼ cup of ice (optional)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Mix the cooked tapioca pearls with the brown sugar and set aside.
  2. In a mug, add the boiling water and tea bags. Let them sit covered for 5 minutes. Set aside.
  3. To a blender, add the mango, plant-based milk, and tea. Blend for 2 minutes until completely smooth.
  4. Add the tapioca pearls to a glass. Pour in the mango tea mixture. Add ice if using.

Notes

  • Use warm water: It’s best to use water around 80C/175F to avoid the green tea becoming bitter.
  • Use the best mango: Out of season, ditch fresh mango (which can taste very lackluster), and instead use frozen mango or high-quality Indian mango puree (like Kesar mango).
  • Sweeten to taste: If the mango isn’t sweet enough, add a little more sweetener to the vegan mango milk tea mixture to taste.
  • Make boba fresh: They must be consumed within 3-4 hours of cooking (and kept in liquid throughout). Otherwise, they become tough/chewy.
