I had my first boba tea two years ago while visiting my brother in California. The tea was lightly sweetened, flavorful and rich with tapioca pearls. I was hooked after the first sip! Here in South Texas, boba tea is slowly coming around, but I can’t wait that long, so I've decided it was time to create my own recipe to be able to enjoy at home. MORE + LESS -
