We'll start with the hot version, then go over the small adjustments for the iced version to make it just as refreshing and creamy. 🔎 See Full Recipe: https://www.insearchoflostflavors.com... 🌟 My Cooking Equipment Raw Tapioca Pearls | https://amzn.to/41vxxXn Taiwanese Black Sugar Powder | https://amzn.to/499xzXF Taiwanese Red Jade Black Tea | https://amzn.to/3NASSJ2 Glass Boba Straws | https://amzn.to/4ceC9Vw Immersion Blender | https://amzn.to/3Ae9TTc Drink Mixing Cup | https://amzn.to/3RDd0LE 🎹 I am playing Fauré’s Sicilienne, Op. 78, arranged by Julien Hamelle. ☕How to Make Authentic Black Milk Tea Boba 1. Cook a fresh batch of boba from raw tapioca pearls. 20 minutes of cooking followed by 10 minutes of resting produces the perfect chewy texture. 2. Use Red Jade black tea loose leaves. They are harvested from a tea plant unique to Taiwan, and have a naturally sweet fragrance. 3. Use Taiwanese black sugar powder. It has a more complex molasses flavor that gives the tea a caramelly taste. 4. For the iced version, increase the sugar, evaporated milk, and steeping time. This ensures that the milk tea won’t taste diluted as the ice melts! This video contains affiliate links. I may earn a commission if you make a purchase at the link. #BlackTea #MilkTea #Boba
