I’ve been wanting to make “bubble tea” at home for a year now, but could never find those large-diameter straws big enough for the tapioca pearls – I finally found them in an Asian grocery in Charlottesville, VA.
My first foray into using the tapioca pearls was to add them to this Thai iced tea. So pretty and delicious, and those chewy tapioca pearls coming up through the straw are such a treat. Who knew drinking tea could be this much fun?

Oooh bubble tea! This is one of those things that Ive always wanted to love but just cant handle. Something about the texture. I do, however, know many a bubble tea lover so I just might have to make this for them!
