Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup quick-cook tapioca pearls
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 cup whole milk

Method
 

  1. Combine blueberries, sugar, and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer 5 to 7 minutes until berries burst. Strain, pressing out the liquid.
  2. Boil a small pot of water. Add tapioca pearls and cook 5 minutes, then cover and let sit 2 minutes. Drain, rinse, and toss with brown sugar.
  3. Spoon boba into 2 glasses. Drizzle syrup along the inside of the glasses, add ice, pour in milk. Stir and serve right away.

Notes

If you want a thicker drink, use half the amount of milk or blend in a handful of ice. The boba pearls are best within 30 minutes; they’ll firm up as they chill.
