Cook honey tapioca pearls
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil, then add 50g of prepared black tapioca pearls and cook until the water reduces, and the pearls float to the top and become slightly translucent.
Add 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to the pot, then turn off the heat, cover, and let the tapioca pearls soak for 30 minutes.
Next, transfer the tapioca pearls to a bowl of ice water; this will help the pearls maintain their chewiness and prevent them from sticking together.

How to choose quality delicious honey
- To select quality honey, drop a few drops of honey into a glass of water; if it is real honey, the drops will sink to the bottom of the glass, whereas if it is fake honey, the drops will dissolve immediately upon contact with water.
- Put a few drops of honey on a white cloth; quality honey will hardly penetrate the cloth, while fake honey will soak right into it.
- A simpler way, you can take a chopstick and stir it in the jar of honey. If it is pure honey, the honey color will not change. Conversely, low-quality honey will bubble up on the surface.
Where to buy cinnamon powder?
- You can find cinnamon powder at grocery stores, supermarkets, baking ingredient stores, or beverage ingredient shops,… You can also order online through e-commerce sites.
