Jasmine Milk Bubble Tea Recipe

I recently made this Jasmine Milk Bubble Tea Recipe at home, and I was surprised by how easy and delicious it turned out. The floral aroma of jasmine tea blended perfectly with creamy milk and chewy boba pearls. Every sip tasted refreshing, lightly sweet, and incredibly satisfying.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3 jasmine tea bags – Jasmine green tea provides the signature floral flavor. A high-quality tea blend gives the best aroma.
  • 1 cup water – Used to steep the tea and create a strong tea base.
  • 1/2 cup milk – Whole milk creates a creamy texture but any milk works well.
  • 2 tablespoons sugar – Adds sweetness and balances the floral notes of the tea.
  • 1/2 cup tapioca pearls quick-cook boba – These chewy pearls are what make bubble tea so fun to drink.
  • 1 cup ice cubes – Helps chill the drink and makes it extra refreshing.

Method
 

  1. Bring 1 cup of water to a gentle boil in a saucepan. Add the jasmine tea bags and allow them to steep for about 5 to 6 minutes. This creates a concentrated tea base with a strong floral aroma.
  2. Remove the tea bags from the brewed tea. Stir in the sugar while the tea is still warm so it dissolves completely. Add the milk and mix until the drink becomes smooth and creamy.
  3. Prepare the boba pearls according to the package instructions. Most quick-cook tapioca pearls take about 5 minutes and are ready when they float to the surface of the water.
  4. Drain the cooked pearls using a strainer or slotted spoon. Transfer them to a bowl of cold water or an ice bath to stop the cooking process and maintain their ideal chewy texture.
  5. Divide the cooled tapioca pearls evenly between two serving glasses. Add a generous layer of ice cubes on top of the pearls for a chilled and refreshing beverage.
  6. Slowly pour the prepared jasmine milk tea over the ice and boba. Give the drink a gentle stir before serving and enjoy immediately with a wide bubble tea straw.
