Cookingdom Level 21: Boba Milk Tea

Strategy Guide

Step 1: Pick the Tea Leaves

• Pluck the four yellowing leaves and place them in the basket on the right side marked with a red cross — so you won't get it wrong.
• Pick the fresh, healthy green leaves and place them into the bamboo basket on the lower left side. Collect a total of 6 leaves.

Step 2: Make the Tapioca Pearls

• Add water to the pot and turn on the stove.
• Add brown sugar and simmer to make brown sugar syrup. Scoop out a spoonful for later use.
• Add tapioca flour to the pot and stir continuously until it forms a dough.
• Move the dough to the cutting board, sprinkle more tapioca flour on top, and flatten it with a rolling pin.
• Roll the dough into a long strip by hand, then cut it into small cubes.
• Roll each cube into a small ball.
• Boil the balls in the pot, then add the reserved brown sugar syrup. The pearls will turn a dark brown color.

Step 3: Prepare the Milk Tea

• Add milk to the pot and turn on the stove.
• Place a strainer over the milk pot.
• Use a wooden spoon to scoop tea powder into the strainer, then add one tea leaf to it as well.
• Use a metal spoon to scoop out some milk tea and pour it into a glass bowl.
• Pour the milk tea into a plastic cup.
• Scoop a spoonful of matcha jelly and add it to the cup.
• Use a skimmer to scoop some pearls into the cup.
• Add ice cubes, mango chunks, more matcha jelly, and top with cherry whipped cream.
• Finally, skewer a few pearls and place them into the cup — and your Boba Milk Tea is ready!
