Description
Don’t let the green color fool you- this bubble tea is just as delicious and decadent as your other favorite flavors. The earthiness of the avocado and the sweet tapioca pearls balance each other out deliciously.

- Add additional ice and sweetener, if desired. Enjoy through a large boba straw.
Notes
This recipe doesn’t have a tea base, but black, matcha, or green tea are great options. If you decide to use tea, use only a 1/2 cup of milk and one cup of tea.
If you are vegan or lactose-intolerant, you will need to find replacements for the milk and the condensed milk. Oat or soy milk are two great options, but to replace the condensed milk, you’ll need to add more sweetener.
We also like to substitute a low-calorie sweetener such as stevia instead of brown sugar.
