How to Make Black Pearl Milk Tea as Delicious as the Ones in Stores
Step 1: Mix 100g of tapioca starch with 10g of cocoa powder in a bowl.
Then, place the pot on the stove, add about 80ml of water and 5 tablespoons of sugar, stir until the sugar dissolves completely, and heat until it boils over a medium flame. Then, slowly pour the flour mixture into the pot, turn off the heat, and stir vigorously until the mixture becomes sticky and firm, then knead by hand until the dough is no longer sticky.
After that, spread a thin layer of tapioca starch on the cutting board, place the dough mixture on top, and apply a little tapioca starch to your hands to prevent sticking, then gently form small round balls.
Step 2: Bring another 1 liter of water to a boil and slowly drop the tapioca balls into the pot, cook them over medium heat for about 15 minutes until they float to the surface and are cooked. To test the doneness of the tapioca balls, you can try eating them; if they are soft and chewy, they are perfect.
Once cooked, remove the tapioca balls and soak them in cold water for about 2 – 3 minutes, then remove them and drain the water.
Step 3: Put 1 Lipton tea bag into the glass, pour in 80ml of boiling water, and let it steep for 3 – 5 minutes. Then, remove the tea bag, add 5 tablespoons of condensed milk to the glass, and stir until the milk is completely dissolved.
Finally, add the prepared tapioca pearls and ice to the glass, and now you can enjoy a delicious pearl milk tea with chewy tapioca pearls made by yourself, both safe and tasty.
