Instructions

Prepare Your Tea

Steep the tea bag in a ½ cup of water for 5 minutes.
After removing the tea bag, let it cool to room temperature and then chill in the fridge.

Make the Strawberry Syrup

Heat the strawberries, sugar, and water in a frying pan, stirring occasionally.
Continue to simmer the mixture for about 10 minutes as it thickens up.
After cooling at room temperature, strain the syrup using a fine strainer to remove all the small fruit pieces.
You should end up with about a ½ cup of strained fine syrup.

Cook the Boba

Add the boba to a small pot with boiled water and cook for 5-10 minutes. If you don’t have quick-cooking boba, boil them as said in the product’s instructions.
When they are ready, strain the boba and run them under cold water for a minute to cool down.
Then, immediately add the Tapioca pearls to the strawberry simple syrup.

Make the Milk Tea

Stir the cold tea, milk, strawberry syrup, and boba together in a tall glass. Lastly, just add some ice cubes and serve!
