Tips on Making Jasmine Milk Tea

You won’t have to step out of the house anymore when you’re craving formilk tea. Although there are dozens of flavors for tea with milk to choose from, our boba tea is one you won’t be able to get enough of. Compared to oolong milk tea, this jasmine milk tea recipe is sweeter and lighter with a subtle floral taste. Follow our tips below and save yourself a trip to the tea store.

• We don’t recommend using honey to sweeten cold milk tea even if it is healthier than sugar. Consequently, it’s difficult for honey to dissolve in cold liquids. You can, however, use it with hot jasmine tea.
• If you want a stronger and more bitter tasting tea, you should leave the tea steeping the entire time before adding milk and ice cubes. If you don’t want it as strong, just steep for five minutes. You can adjust according to your preference for jasmine milk tea recipes.
• You can store cooked pearls in a simple syrup made with water and sugar or just in honey. Nowadays, brown sugar syrup is preferred as well.
• It’s best to serve boba pearls while they are still warm. This is because they will still be chewy in the drink. Once they start to cool, they’ll also start to harden which is an undesirable texture.
