Ingredients
For the tea:
2 cups strong brewed black tea (cooled)
1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
2 tablespoons rose syrup (adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons sugar or sweetener (optional, depending on sweetness of syrup)
For the bubbles:
1/2 cup tapioca pearls (boba)
Water for boiling
How to Make Rose Milk Tea with Bubbles
Start by cooking the tapioca pearls. Bring a pot of water to boil, add the pearls, and cook according to package instructions (usually about 5–7 minutes), stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once cooked, drain the pearls and rinse with cold water. Set aside in a little sugar syrup or honey to keep them soft and sweet.
In a large cup or pitcher, mix the brewed black tea with milk, rose syrup, and sugar if using. Stir well to combine.
Add cooked tapioca pearls to serving glasses.
Pour the rose milk tea over the bubbles.
Serve with wide straws to enjoy the chewy pearls along with the creamy tea.
