Bubble Tea

This is bubble tea made the Feral Turtle way!


Serves 2
1/4 cup of large tapioca pearls


4 cups of boiling water

Cook until tender (about 15 minutes) and then drain!

Marinade in 2 TBSP honey.  Let them swim as long as you can.  Overnight is best!


Make a fruit smoothie using whatever frozen fruit you have.
This is optional, but we happened to find it at our favorite Chinese supermarket.  It is a flavored coffee creamer that comes in a powder form.   I bought a bag of blueberry, and vanilla.  It adds an extra boost of flavor and creaminess to the smoothie.  I usually add about 2 TBSP to the blender.  This smoothie got a boost of blueberry.

Here is the label in case anyone is interested in tracking it down!

 1 cup of blueberries.

2 cups of skim milk

Blend until smooth. Put pearls in a cup.  Pour smoothie over top of pearls.



Serve with some Pocky, and you have yourself a pretty yummy snack! 

Cheers!
