Today a new recipe, a popular drink recipe. I have had this drink a couple of times. It’s so good. I have never been in the part of the world where this is widely sold and so popular. Maybe one day I will visit Taiwan. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how to make Boba Tea.
What is the definition of Boba Tea
The meaning of Boba Tea is:
”A mix of cold and sweet tea with milk. It is mixed with milk and ice to create the ‘bubbles’, a frothy layer on the top of the drink”.
Boba Tea
As is often the case, this trend also comes from Asia. First you had a trend with Dalgano coffee and now this drink is also becoming more and more popular. We are talking about Bubble Tea, or Bubbelthee.
The main ingredients of this tea are topioca pearls and black tea. You can also buy this traditional drink in the shops. Still, it’s more fun to make it yourself. You can also make it to your own taste. You can make the syrup yourself or change the milk. If you prefer to drink almond milk or coconut milk, you could use that. You could also mix the ice cubes with the mixer. Then you get a slush structure.
