Ingredients
2 cups fresh honeydew melon, cubed
1/2 cup quick-cooking black tapioca pearls (boba)
1 cup brewed jasmine green tea, chilled
1/2 cup milk of choice (oat, soy, or whole milk)
2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
1 cup ice cubes
Extra sweetener for soaking boba
Instructions
Step 1: Cook the tapioca pearls according to the package instructions. Once tender, drain and rinse under cold water.
Step 2: Place the cooked boba in a small bowl and stir in a tablespoon of honey or syrup to prevent sticking.
Step 3: In a high-speed blender, combine the cubed honeydew melon, chilled jasmine tea, milk, and sweetener.
Step 4: Add ice cubes to the blender and pulse until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
Step 5: Divide the sweetened boba into two tall glasses.
Step 6: Pour the blended melon mixture over the boba and serve immediately with a wide boba straw.
Notes
Ensure the melon is very ripe for the best flavor. If the melon is not sweet enough, you may need to add an extra tablespoon of honey.
