Ingredients and equipment
Before we begin making our mango bubble tea, it’s important to gather all the necessary ingredients and equipment. Here’s a list of what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
- Tapioca pearls.
- Ripe mangoes.
- Tea bags (black tea or green tea). In general, you can use any type of tea, including jasmine tea or others. It all depends on your preferences.
- Water.
- Sugar (for example brown sugar) or honey, or brown sugar syrup, or maple syrup (optional).
- Milk (optional). You can use coconut milk, oat milk, soy milk, almond milk or any other dairy milk.
- ice cubes (optional).
How do you choose a mango for this drink?
For the perfect milk tea, you’ll need to source your key flavoring from a few different options. Mango pulp is ideal and can be sourced online or in Indian grocery stores.
There are quite a few interpretations of this recipe. In them, frozen mango milk can be used to create mango milk and mango juice.
This form of mango has been sweetened for added sweetness and boasts delicious varieties like Kesar and Alphonso!
Alternatively, fresh or frozen ripe mangos are also great taste bases for this drink – just make sure their pulps have been blended into smoothness with no fibrous remains left behind as that might take away from the satisfying classic texture of this beverage. The mango juice and fiber should be perfect.
If going down the nectar route then opt purely-made brands only – avoiding those with unnatural flavorings!
Frozen mashed-up versions may work too but do lack in fullness so best avoided where possible if opting out of all other forms mentioned above.
Equipment:
- Large pot.
- Strainer.
- Blender.
- Saucepan.
- Measuring cups and spoons.
- Mixing bowls.
- Tall glasses or mason jars.
- Bubble tea straws.
Where to buy tapioca pearls:
To make your special recipe come alive, the key is finding just the right mango boba. Fortunately, these can be found online or in most Asian grocery stores (bubble tea shop)–just remember to choose carefully based on size and color (most commonly black or white).
Be sure to read labels too; some varieties may contain preservatives or food coloring that you don’t want!
Once you’ve got all of it together, let’s go ahead and get cooking with those delicious boba tapioca pearls!
Mango bubble tea: Step-by-step recipe
Step 1: Preparing the tapioca pearls
Fulfilling the perfect chewy texture for milk tea starts with tapioca.
To make sure you do it correctly, boil a large pot of water and pour in your desired quantity of boba tapioca pearls.
Gently stir them to avoid sticking before boiling water them for 15-20 minutes or until they’re completely cooked through.
Then, turn off the heat and let sit an additional 15-20 minutes to soften fully — once finished cooking, drain then rinse under cold water quickly so as not to overdo it!
Lastly don’t forget that brown sugar (or brown sugar syrup), maple syrup or honey glaze; simply toss together while warm — this will ensure no clumping when cooled down later on!
Step 2: Making the mango puree
Experience the heavenly flavor of authentic milk tea by using perfectly ripe and sweet mangoes to make a velvety smooth puree.
The key to success is choosing just-right fruit – fragrance and slight softness should be your guiding stars!
Then peel, slice, dice, blend away until you have an irresistibly creamy texture. For extra ease add drop or two water if needed before setting aside in preparation for making that iconic base!
Step 3: Making the tea base
Making bubble drink can be an art in itself – and the key to successful bubbly bliss lies with selecting a quality base. Whether you opt for black or green, finding just the right level of strength is essential before brewing begins!
To ensure your cup of perfection reaches its peak potential, steep the tea bags according to package instructions within hot water for 3-5 minutes; once cooled off completely it’s time to decide if adding sweetness and milk will complete this masterpiece.
Stir away until sugar (or honey) has fully dissolved into that creamy texture we all love so dearly!
Now that we have our tea base, mango puree, and boba tapioca pearls ready, let’s put everything together and make mango bubble drink.
Step 4: Assembling the mango bubble tea
With all the ingredients in-hand, it’s time to craft a delicious and refreshing mango bubble tea!
Start by combining your desired amount of tea base with mango puree.
Once mixed together well, add cooked tapioca pearls into a tall glass or mason jar before pouring on the perfect blend of flavors.
To personalize your drink even further consider adding other toppings such as fruit jelly, aloe vera syrup, or whipped cream – tailor each sip however you like for an unforgettable experience!
