do you like Bubble Tea?

If you’ve never tried it, bubble tea is a Taiwanese drink that is sweet milk tea with varied toppings. Some have boba (aka bubbles or tapioca pearls), popping boba, jellies…. I have only ever tried boba. It is a semi-flavorless, chewy snack that you can slurp through your over-sized straw throughout your drink.

These are the straws I use. They can be found on amazon here!

So funny because the bubbles don’t taste like much, but I love them! It’s just fun and satisfying to drink haha! Liking bubble tea will depend on if you like tea (not southern sweet tea.. like earl grey or jasmine or oolong etc.) and milk. If you like both, then you’ll probably enjoy this since you can adjust the sweetness to your liking! You can also buy pre-made tapioca pearls(bubbles) if you’re not up to making them yourself.

Step-by-Step Tapioca Pearls

After adding boiling water* to your tapioca flour, you’re going to grate fresh beet onto a paper towel. (If you want your tapioca pearls colored, totally optional. I was just feeling festive!) Using your paper towel like a cheese cloth, squeeze the beet over your dough.

*Note: If your dough will not form, it is likely that your water was not hot enough. I place my bowl of tapioca right beside the stove so I can add the boiling water immediately. Scooping the water out and walking across the kitchen cooled my water off so quickly that I had to start over.

Knead the beet juice in your dough.

When your dough is ready it will stick together well, but not to your hands! If it is crumbling apart, add more boiling water (tsp at a time). If it is sticky, add more tapioca flour(tsp at a time).

Scooping tapioca pearls for bubble tea

I used a “smidgen” measuring spoon to cut/scoop out the perfect size pearls! If you do not have these measuring spoons, you can roll dough out on a flat surface until it is about the size of a normal-sized straw. From here, you can cut it into small squares.

Raw tapioca pearls for bubble tea

Here are my tapioca pearls after smoothing/rounding them. I didn’t stress the perfectly round shape and they were perfectly fine! Add pearls to your medium pot of boiling water and boil for 5-10 minutes. Drain, soak in honey, make tea, enjoy! The rest of the instructions are found below! 🙂

Sometimes life is your toddler thinking your shirt Sometimes life is your toddler thinking your shirt is a napkin, a messy bun hiding a rat’s nest, old makeup left on your face, and a cute jacket thrown on just to make you feel slightly better about yourself after laying your toddler back down 5-10 times trying to make nap time happen... but only sometimes🤗 Still have been struggling with feeling I don’t have anything to write that anyone would get anything from, working on overcoming that lie.. Theyre easy to believe sometimes.. but only sometimes😉 #momlife #newseasons #changeiscoming #tryingtokeepittogether #messybun #walkingnapkin
Anyone else ever get stuck?... Stuck thinking you Anyone else ever get stuck?... Stuck thinking you have nothing to offer. Stuck feeling like you’ll never be successful. Just stuck in self-doubt... that’s been me the past 3 weeks. I’m learning that the awesome part of going through things like this is acquiring the tools to help others get out of similar slumps one day... hopefully that one day is soon. #realtalk #selfdoubt
You don’t have to get an apology to extend forgi You don’t have to get an apology to extend forgiveness. You don’t have to speak to someone from your past to extend forgiveness. You don’t have to become best friends to extend forgiveness. To refuse someone of forgiveness, you insist on carrying an unnecessary weight that causes division. The longer you hold it, the heavier it gets. Let it go and be kind.🤍

So happy Zicam® has a product with the natural power of elderberry and complete with the natural elderberry flavor you can’t go wrong. I mean it’s at all major retailers (even Amazon!), it’s safe and effective, shortens your cold, and you don’t have to measure out syrup.. just pop a drop!! & at a great price, there’s no reason not to give these a try!
