Viewed: 77 - Published at: 3 years agoIngredients
- The boba pearls for 6-10 drinks
- 7 cups water
- 1 cup Black boba tapioca pearls (for bubble tea)
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- The fruit tea drink
- 2 ounces cooked boba (stored in syrup)
- 6-8 ice cubes
- 3 ounces brewed green tea
- 1 ounce sweet lime juice (or Meyer lemon)
- 4 ounces mangosteen juice (or other tropical fruit juice you love)
- 1.5 ounces white tequila
- 1 ounce Cointreau
- lemon grass leaves or lemon verbena, divided leaves
- possible additional sweetener such as agave
Method
- Boil the water in a large pot. Stirring add the boba which should float. Cover and cook for 20 minutes. Then let rest for 20 minutes. Check to see if the boba is soft enough. If not, cook for 5-10 minutes further, then let rest. In the warm summer these should cook pretty well without the second boil.
- Drain the boba and rinse with warm water. Place in a bowl with a cover.
- Boil the 2 cups of water. Add and dissolve the sugars to make a sugar syrup.
- Cover the cooled boba with the sugar syrup. Serve or refrigerate until ready to use. These should last this way for a few days before they turn too mushy.
- To a large glass add the boba pearls and ice cubes. Some folks like fewer bubbles while others want double. I think 2 oz. is a goodly amount to use in a large drink.
- In a cocktail shaker mix the tea, juice, tequila, Cointreau, and some bruised herb. Shake vigorously. Strain and pour into the glass. Taste for sweetness. Add some sweetener if you need it, such as agave. Garnish with fresh herb. Serve with an extra wide straw.
