BOBA ICED COLD BREW
For Boba Tea lovers
- Heat water over medium heat and bring it to a boil.
- Add the coconut sugar to boiling water.
- Stir the water & sugar together until a candy thermometer readers 230 degrees (this will take roughly 3-5 minutes).
- Remove the syrup from the heat and allow it to cool.
- Store in storage container and refrigerate. This syrup keeps for up to 6 months in the refrigerator.
- This will yield 1/2 cup of simple syrup*
- Next, make the boba with the tapioca pearls.
- Measure 2 cups of water for every 1/4 cup of boba you want to make. Bring the water to a boil in a small-medium saucepan.
- Add the boba and stir until they begin floating to the top of the water. Turn the heat to medium and cook the boba 12-15 minutes.
- Then, remove pan from heat, cover, and let the pearls sit for another 12-15 minutes and rest.
- Next, drain them from the water and transfer them to a small bowl or container.
- Pour the coconut sugar syrup over top until the boba are submerged.
- Let sit until the boba are room temperature, at least another 15 minutes.
- Boba are best if used within a few hours of cooking, but will keep refrigerated for several days. However, keep in mind that as time goes by, they will become harder and harder**
- To make the cold brew boba coffee, combine 1/4 cup cold brew coffee with 1/2 cup milk of your choice, a few ice cubes and 2 tablespoons boba. If this isn’t sweet enough for you, add 1 tablespoon of sweetener of your choice (I would recommend some of the coconut sugar simple syrup you made or pure maple syrup!)
