Mixing tapioca flour
First, divide 400g of tapioca flour for each portion of fruit juice, each portion being 100g. Then, proceed to the mixing stage.
Place a pot on the stove, add the dragon fruit juice, and bring it to a boil over low heat. When the mixture boils, add 20g of tapioca flour, stirring well for about 10 seconds to combine, and then turn off the heat.
Next, pour the cooked dragon fruit flour into a bowl containing the remaining 80g of tapioca flour. Use your hands to knead until the dough forms a smooth, non-sticky ball.
Repeat the above steps with the remaining tapioca flour portions.
Tip: If you want the pearls to be both chewy and soft, you can use 1/3 rice flour and 2/3 tapioca flour.

How to store pearls without hardening
- After boiling, take the pearls out, soak them in cold water or rinse under running water so that the pearls do not stick together. Next, mix the pearls with brown sugar and then keep them warm in a rice cooker (warming mode). This method will help the pearls stay soft and not harden for up to 1 day.
- To preserve the pearls longer, place them in a tightly sealed container and put them in the fridge. With this method, the pearls can be stored for 3 – 4 days without fear of spoilage.
- When you want to use them, you just need to briefly boil the pearls again. However, if you want the pearls to taste good, you should make and eat them right away.
