Notes
The creme brulee and creamer powders likely already have plenty of sweeteners added. Taste the milk tea as you go before adding any brown sugar syrup.
To add an extra layer of creaminess, consider topping your boba tea with a classic creme brulee. The rich custard combination with the smoky caramelized sugar of the milk tea base provides an explosion of flavor with each sip. This will also give you the visual and textural satisfaction of seeing the crispy burnt sugar on top of your drink. However, if you’re watching your sugar intake, you may want to skip this step as the drink is already quite sweet.
