3 Boba Tea Recipes.
Just think of it, You are Sitting outside (or whatever your favorite spot to sit is), And you have a cup of Boba Tea with you. Doesn’t that sound nice? Well, you have stopped by the right site. Boba Tea Recipes are here for you.
Now, What are Boba Tea Recipes, you ask? I have the answer for ya! Check out this post to learn more about Boba Tea Recipes
The term boba or bubble tea covers a broad range of sweet, non-carbonated; most varieties include:
- Brewed tea or tea made from concentrate
- Milk or a nondairy additive to make the drink creamy
- Plenty of sweeteners in this drink
- Tapioca balls
But if you do not want it with sweetener, you can use stevia instead of sugar. Boba Teas are very sweet! They are known as the sweet tea, but from Taipei, I have made Boba tea with my sisters, and it was so good, even though we didn’t know how to make it at first (Newbies were making it) But it was so yummy! so here are recipes for you, they are super easy to make and If you want to make it this weekend, go for it! (you can thank me later 🙂
So here are my 3 favorite Boba Tea Recipes for you to make.
Ingredients
for 3 servings
BLACK TEA
- 3 cups water
- 7 black tea bags
TAPIOCA PEARLS AND BROWN SUGAR SYRUP
- 2 cups medium black tapioca pearls
- 3 cups brown sugar
- 2 cups hot water
ASSEMBLY
- 2 cups tapioca pearls, cooked
- 1 cup of ice
- brown sugar syrup, to taste
- 2 cups black tea, chilled
- 1 cup of Soy Milk
SPECIAL EQUIPMENT
- 2 wide-opening straws
Preparation
- Combine the water and tea bags in a medium pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, remove the pan from the heat and let the tea cool to room temperature.
- Bring a medium pot of water to boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, add the tapioca pearls and boil until softened, about 20 minutes.
- Drain the pearls through a strainer.
- Set the strainer with the pearls over a medium bowl. Add the brown sugar to the strainer and pour the hot water over it.
- Stir to dissolve the brown sugar. Soak the pearls in brown sugar syrup for 30 minutes, then store the bubbles and syrup separately until ready to serve.
- Assemble the tea: Divide the pearls and ice between 2 glasses, then add the brown sugar syrup, tea, and half-and-half.
- Stir with a wide-opening straw, then serve.
- And enjoy!
I love Boba tea so much! It’s simple to make and so good to have sometimes, but it’s not a drink to have every day. It can be too much for your body.
The next recipe is one I still need to try, but there is this strawberry one that I Honestly want to make this weekend!
Ingredients
This one serves 4 people. If you want to make more, go right ahead and do more of the ingredients than this calls for.
- 2 cups of soy milk
- 1 cup strawberries
- 1 cup pieces mango
- 1/2 cup Boba pearls
Instructions
- Blend milk, strawberries, and mango together.
- If you are using fresh fruit, add ice to the desired consistency.
- Boil Boba in water or 100% juice for 5 minutes, and let cool.
- Stir into fruit and milk mixture.
- Pour into glasses and serve with a fat straw. And Enjoy!
OK, This one sounds like a crazy mix but try it and see what you think. This one is a Peanut Butter and Jelly Boba tea!
Ingredients
¾ cup strawberries
1½ cups milk of choice (Almond, Soy, and Oat milk)
1½ Tbsp peanut butter
½ tsp vanilla
sweetener, to taste (If needed)
⅓ cup cooked boba tapioca pearls
Instructions
- Fill a large pot halfway with water and bring it to a boil. If desired, add ~10 drops of liquid sweetener to infuse some sweetness. (I like to use stevia)
- Add uncooked boba tapioca pearls to boiling water. Lightly stir until the boba begins to float, then cover and boil for 3 minutes.
- Remove the pot from heat and carefully drain the boba pearls. Transfer to a bowl and cover with water until ready to use. (Otherwise, they’ll stick together!)
- In a blender, combine strawberries, milk, peanut butter, vanilla, and sweetener (if desired) and blend until smooth.
- Add cooked Boba to desired cups, pour in blended milk tea, serve with a Boba straw, and enjoy!

And there you have it! Top 3 Boba Teas Recipes to try this weekend; I hope you enjoy! 🙂
This one sounds and looks delicious for normal people, but a little too sweet perhaps for my taste and with diabetes. Will keep it in mind for the backyard get-togethers next year for friends and family. Thanks 🙂
How amazing!
Thanks for this delightful blog. A little secret? I used to own a dessert brand in the UK; we added bubble tea and it became the most popular drink in the city! This was circa 2017 and I have no reason to believe this trend has subsided.
Pro tip: When adding the tapioca pearls to the hot water to cook, make sure you swirl the water as you place them in with a sprinkling motion. If you dump in a whole portion, you are going to have one giant ball of gloop. 🙂
Thanks for some wonderful tips and recipes!
Thank you for the tips. I will keep these for more tea tips on my posts.
I love Bubble Tea, I just grew up with it when I was a child living in Asia. Do you know that the first bubble tea was created by the restaurant manager in Taipei, Taiwan. The history is very sweet and we just cannot get enough of it. Where do you think we can buy the concentrated powder? I am in the search for a good ones, do you have any brand that you can suggest that I can get on Amazon?
Hello, So I don’t use powder for mine i use black tea bags for it but on amazon has so many I would just say to get what you think is best, plus I would highly recommend one that is with more than 1 flavor that way you can make some different ones and see which one you like best.
I would love to hear what mix you recommend to me, thanks for taking the time to read my post! 😉
