Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup black tapioca pearls
  • 1/2 cup raw or turbinado sugar (can also use a mix of granulated and brown sugar)
  • 1/4 cup almond syrup
  • 1/2 cup thai tea mix or 3-4 black tea bags
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (homemade if possible)

Directions

  • Bring a pot with at least 5 cups of water to a boil. Add boba and boil for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes more. While boba is cooking, combine 1/2 cup water and sugar in a small saucepan. Boil for 1 to 2 minutes or until sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and transfer to a heat-proof bowl. Stir in almond syrup. Strain boba with a slotted spoon into sugar syrup. Let sit for at least 10 to 15 minutes. To brew tea, add tea mix to 2 cups boiling water. Let steep for 5 minutes, then strain through a fine mesh seive to remove solids. If you prefer your thai tea chilled, refrigerate tea until thoroughly chilled. To prepare bubble tea, spoon half of boba into bottom of glass, along with a tablespoon or two of syrup. Pour in 8 ounces of brewed tea, then top with 1/4 cup of almond milk. Taste, and stir in additional sugar syrup as desired. Can be served warm or chilled.

Title:

Thai Almond Milk Bubble Tea | Love and Olive Oil

Descrition:

I may be slightly obsessed with bubble tea these days. Which is funny, because I'm not a tea drinker. But I guess if you mix tea with cream and sugar and squishy sweet bubbles, it doesn't much taste like tea anymore, does it? Those additions make all the difference. My new quest is to figure out what other things I can do with boba aside from in tea. Like, dessert things. Do you dare me? This particular variation mixes traditional Thai tea with homemade almond milk and almond flavored syrup. It's no secret I love anything and everything almond, so it follows that this is pretty darn awesome. It reminds me of a boba tea I had in San Francisco a few years ago and which served as the inspiration for this recipe: the hint of almond the perfect counterpart to the bitterness of the tea. The bright orange color comes from the traditional Thai tea mix, a blend of teas and flavorings and (yes artificial colors. If you've ever had Thai tea in a restaurant, this is what they use.
