Ingredients
- 1 cup Tapioca pearls
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 units Black tea bags
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 4 cups Water
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the tapioca pearls. Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a large pot.
Step 2
Once the water is boiling, add 1 cup of tapioca pearls and stir gently to prevent them from sticking together. Let them cook on medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 3
After 20 minutes, turn off the heat and let the pearls sit for an additional 5 minutes to ensure they reach the desired chewy texture.
Step 4
Drain the pearls through a sieve and rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set them aside in a bowl.
Step 5
While the pearls are cooking, prepare the tea. In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil and add 2 black tea bags. Let the tea brew for 5 minutes before removing the bags.
Step 6
Add 2 tablespoons of erythritol and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the brewed tea while it is still warm. Stir well to dissolve the erythritol completely.
Step 7
In a large pitcher, combine the brewed tea mixture with 2 cups of unsweetened almond milk and mix well.
Step 8
To assemble the bubble milk tea, divide the cooked tapioca pearls between two serving glasses.
Step 9
Add a handful of ice cubes to each glass, then pour the milk tea over the ice and pearls.
Step 10
Stir gently to mix the pearls with the tea and serve immediately with a wide straw for sipping and enjoying the tapioca pearls.
