Ingredients
- 1 cup tapioca pearls
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons assam black tea
- 2 cups hot water
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Begin by brewing the tea. Place the Assam black tea leaves in a teapot or heatproof container and pour 2 cups of hot water over them. Allow the tea to steep for 5-7 minutes, then strain and set aside to cool.
Step 2
While the tea is steeping, cook the tapioca pearls. Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Add the tapioca pearls once the water is boiling, stirring gently to prevent sticking.
Step 3
Cook the tapioca pearls according to the package instructions, typically for about 15-20 minutes, until they become translucent and chewy.
Step 4
Once cooked, remove the pot from heat, cover with a lid, and let the pearls sit in hot water for an additional 5 minutes.
Step 5
After soaking, drain the tapioca pearls and rinse them with cold water. Transfer them to a bowl and mix with the brown sugar to coat the pearls and create a syrupy glaze. Set aside.
Step 6
In a large pitcher, combine the brewed black tea and unsweetened almond milk. Stir well to ensure they are thoroughly mixed.
Step 7
To assemble, add a portion of the sugared tapioca pearls to each serving glass. Fill the glasses with ice cubes.
Step 8
Pour the tea and almond milk mixture over the ice and tapioca pearls, dividing it evenly between the servings.
Step 9
Stir gently with a straw, and enjoy your refreshing Vegan Classic Boba Milk Tea immediately.
