I've found a recipe for the Tapioca Bubble-tea drinks for those of which were interested in it. I have not yet tried it myself going down after I post this to the local shop to get ingredients:
Cooking the Tapioca Pearls: You can get Raw or pre-cooked tapioca pearls in a local shop or market. It most likely will be in the baking goods section
You need:
1 part Tapioca pearls
4 parts(or more) water
First boil the water. You add the pearls to the boiling water and boil for them 30 minutes. Stir them occasionally to make sure the pearls are not sticking to each other or to the pot. Next turn off heat and let the pearls steep in the water for another 30 minutes with the lid of the cooking pot on.
Next drain the tapioca pearls and rinse them with cold water to cool them down.
Place them in sugar syrup (which is a sugar and water solution). Make sure that the pearls are covered. Finally stir the pearls well.
The pearls are now ready to enjoy.
Note: To prevent the pearls from sticking to each other and to the pot, there must be enough water and the pearls must be stirred.
To Prepare the Bubble-Tea:
Ingredients:
1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the following:
2. 1 scoop flavour powder
3. 1 scoop powdered dairy creamer
4. 1 scoop sugar syrup
5. 3/4 cup tea, cold
6. 1 cup ice
7. Shake everything up until the powders are dissolved and well blended.
8. Pour in a glass over the cooked tapioca pearls.
Tips:
You can adjust the amounts to suit your own tastes.
Can also be made hot, without the ice.
: It's easy to make but is somewhat difficult to make in the home because of the need of ingredients.
