How to Make Mint Milk Tea with White Tapioca Pearls
-
Steep the tea
First, you will use a electric kettle to heat the water for steeping the tea until it reaches about 85 degrees Celsius. Then, you will add 200ml of hot water and the tea bag into the pot and steep the tea for 3 minutes.
Tip: You should use green tea or jasmine tea to make milk tea, for a beautiful color and more fragrant aroma. Additionally, you should not steep the tea with boiling water as it will make the tea bitter and astringent.
-
Mix the milk tea
Next, you will use a measuring cup to pour 30ml of fresh milk, 20ml of plant-based cream, 20ml of sugar syrup, and 30ml of mint syrup into a glass.
After 3 minutes, you use a spoon to remove the tea leaves, then add 20g of milk powder (about 1 tablespoon) into the tea pot, and stir well with a spoon. You add a little ice into the pot and stir well to cool the tea.
Tip: Note that you must cool the milk tea before adding other ingredients like fresh milk, plant-based cream, syrup,… so that the flavor of the milk tea is not altered.
