A popular Taiwanese drink, Pearl Milk Tea, also known as Bubble Tea, is a sweet and refreshing beverage with chewy tapioca pearls.

Ingredients - Serves 2

Boil 2 cups of water in a pot. Once boiling, add the tea bags and let it steep for 5 minutes. Remove the tea bags and let the tea cool.
In another pot, boil the remaining 2 cups of water. Add the tapioca pearls and cook according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain the pearls and rinse under cold water.
In a small saucepan, heat the sugar with 1/4 cup of water until it dissolves into a syrup. Let it cool.
To assemble the tea, divide the cooked tapioca pearls between two large glasses. Pour the syrup over the pearls.
Fill the glasses with ice cubes, then pour in the tea, leaving some space for the milk.
Top off each glass with milk, stir well, and serve immediately.
