teas.co.uk · 20 min · Serves 1
You'll need
- 2 tea bags of Tetley Original English Breakfast
- 200ml freshly boiled water (100C)
- 60g dried tapioca pearls (boba)
- 100ml milk or oat milk
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar or honey, to taste
- Plenty of ice
Method
- Cook the tapioca pearls as the pack directs, usually boiled for 5 to 15 minutes until soft and chewy, then drained and tossed in a little sugar. Set aside.
- Pour the boiled water over the tea bags and steep for 4 minutes for a strong brew. Lift out the bags and stir in the sugar while hot, then let it cool.
- Spoon the pearls into a tall glass and add plenty of ice.
- Pour over the cooled sweet tea, top with the milk, and stir. Drink with a wide straw so you can scoop up the pearls.
- Cooked pearls turn hard if chilled, so make them fresh and use within a few hours; do not refrigerate them.
