Hey Boba Lovers!
I was making boba milk tea one day and realized that I have always bought boba pearls (tapioca pearls) and never thought of making them myself. I found out that boba pearls only consist of three simple ingredients, tapioca starch, water, and brown sugar. Thankfully we had all the ingredients at home, and I was able to make them. After I tried making boba pearls from scratch I found out that it was surprisingly simple and very tasty.
Although the original recipe uses Chinese black sugar, I used dark brown sugar the first time I made them and it turned out great. The steps are simple but forming the boba pearls take a while, so make sure you have some time to spare.
