Photos of Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba Recipe
The boba milk tea trend has been going on for several years now. This phenomenon originated in Taiwan and has become widely popular all over the world. Jasmine milk tea is not a popular flavor, but its sweet-scented jasmine flowers that filter through the green tea leaves creates an ultimately refreshing drink. Because of that, you won’t be able to resist making this homemade milk tea. Pair it with an egg waffle, which is another trendy snack commonly eaten with bubble milk tea.
Tips on Making Jasmine Milk Tea
You won’t have to step out of the house anymore when you’re craving for milk tea. Although there are dozens of flavors for tea with milk to choose from, our boba tea is one you won’t be able to get enough of. Compared to oolong milk tea, this jasmine milk tea recipe is sweeter and lighter with a subtle floral taste. Follow our tips below and save yourself a trip to the tea store.
- We don’t recommend using honey to sweeten cold milk tea even if it is healthier than sugar. Consequently, it’s difficult for honey to dissolve in cold liquids. You can, however, use it with hot jasmine tea.
- If you want a stronger and more bitter tasting tea, you should leave the tea steeping the entire time before adding milk and ice cubes. If you don’t want it as strong, just steep for five minutes. You can adjust according to your preference for jasmine milk tea recipes.
- You can store cooked pearls in a simple syrup made with water and sugar or just in honey. Nowadays, brown sugar syrup is preferred as well.
- It’s best to serve boba pearls while they are still warm. This is because they will still be chewy in the drink. Once they start to cool, they’ll also start to harden which is an undesirable texture.
