Units
Scale
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp instant coffee
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp boiling water
- 1 cup milk of your choice
- 1/4 cup boba pearls
Instructions
- Cook the boba pearls according to the package. Drain the pearls and transfer them to a bowl. Stir in the maple syrup. Set them aside to cool while you make the coffee.
- Combine the instant coffee, sugar, and boiling water in a bowl. Use a whisk or hand mixer to whisk the mixture until it is thick and frothy. It should be about the same consistency as whipped cream.
- To assemble the drink, put 1/4 cup of chewy tapioca pearls in the bottom of a tall serving glass. Add some ice and pour your milk into the glass. Spoon the whipped coffee on top so that it is layered.
- Stir it all up and enjoy!
Notes
Some types of milk that would work for this recipe include almond milk, oat milk, cashew milk, coconut milk, soy milk, or whole milk.
The amount of time you whisk the coffee depends on the tool you use. You will only need to whip for a minute or so using an electric whisk or hand mixer. However, if you are whipping by hand, be prepared to spend more time on it (and get a workout in!). Either way, make sure to whisk until it is airy and fluffy.
