This sweet, creamy drink is a healthier Boba alternative that doesn’t sacrifice flavor. Featuring our Better Off Red tea with a vanilla-citrus blush, this creative concoction will knock your socks off with sweetened flavor! This tea recipe is perfect for an afterschool treat or teatime with friends.

Ingredients
2 cups water
1 cup uncooked tapioca pearls
1 cup coconut milk, box or can
Directions
  1. In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Remove from heat and add tea bags. Allow to steep until tea is completely cool. Discard tea bags.  
  2. In another pot, cook tapioca pearls according to package instructions. Once done, drain and mix in maple syrup. Let cool.
  3. Transfer tapioca pearls to two large serving glasses. Fill glasses halfway with ice. Add coconut milk and top off with tea. Enjoy immediately using a boba straw.

 

Chef’s Tips:
  • Adjust sweetness level by adding more or less maple syrup.
  • Switch it up and use your milk of choice, or no milk at all if you’re wanting something lighter.
  • This tea can also be served warm.
