It is popular in Southeast Asia and is taking over the world due to its incredible taste and texture. Making this milk chai bubble tea is incredibly easy at home. You can make it at a fraction of the cost, and the homemade tea tastes much better than the bought one. Once you make it at home, I assure you, you will never want to repurchase it. You can use any black tea bags to make the bubble tea. If you want to make it spiced, you can use spiced tea bags. Dried tapioca pearls can be easily found in the “Asian section” of any grocery store and are also available online. Heat over medium-high heat until it comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Add ¼ cup of boba pearls to the pan and cook for 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the pearls soak in for 30 minutes. Once the water comes to a boil, switch off the heat, add 2 black tea bags to the pan, and let the tea steep for 10 minutes. Note – Do not steep for less time; otherwise, the tea flavor in the final beverage will be very mild. Take out the boba pearls from the pan using a slotted spoon and add them to the glass. Serve immediately, along with a large boba tea straw. These straws assist you in sucking up the tapioca balls from the bottom of your drink. Sip the pearls through the straw and then chew them in your mouth before swallowing them with your drink. If you like more boba pearls in your tea, please increase their quantity. For a taste change, add some dried orange peels, ground ginger, rose petals, apple slices, vanilla extract, etc, while brewing the tea. Replace granulated sugar with dark brown sugar for an earthier taste. To make the drink vegan, replace dairy milk with plant-based milk like coconut milk, oat milk, soy milk, or cashew milk, and replace honey with maple syrup. This tea tastes the best when made fresh. However, you can brew the tea, cook the boba pears a day in advance, and refrigerate them. Just assemble the bubble tea just before serving.
