Confessions of a Bubble Tea Junkie



I was addicted when I drank my first cup of bubble tea - a Singaporean treat. All around Singapore you can find shops which sell bubble tea. One cup of bubble tea mainly consists of tea, tapioca pearls and syrup. If brewed properly, it can be as addictive as alcohol.
However, I must admit, it is unhealthy. (do not take it too often) But that is what most Singaporeans do right? Consume unhealthy stuff. Let us take a peek into the recipe of cup of bubble tea:
How to make a bubble tea
  • 1 Scoop non-dairy powder creamer
  • 1 Scoop bubble tea sugar syrup
  • 1 cup ice
  • 2 fl. oz. of cooked Bubble Tea Tapioca Pearls

  1. Put hot tea, creamer and Bubble Tea sugar syrup in shaker and mix well.
  2. Add in ice, cover shaker and shake for a nice froth.
  3. Add tapioca pearls to a cup, and pour your drink over.
  4. Put in your fat bubble tea straw and enjoy.


The most popular of bubble teas are milk tea, green tea and red tea. The non-local types are
black, green, oolong, chai, or yerba teas.
One last question: Could you share your thoughts on bubble tea with me? (post it in the comment box)
