Number Of Ingredients 7

1 teaspoon matcha green tea
1/4 cup hot water
1/2 cup tapioca pearls
4 cups water
1-2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup)
2 cups milk (of choice)
1 cup ice

Steps:

  • Prepare the matcha tea: In a small bowl, whisk the matcha green tea powder with hot water. Set aside and let it cool down.
  • Cook the tapioca pearls: Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the tapioca pearls to the water and stir until the pearls start to float to the top. Continue cooking them for the amount of time indicated on the packaging. Turn off the heat and carefully drain the boba. Pour the cooked boba into a bowl.
  • Sweeten the tapioca pearls: Add sweetener and stir the tapioca pearls. Let the pearls sit for about 5 minutes, allowing them to absorb the sweetener, stirring it a few times.
  • Assemble your drinks: Divide the pearls between two glasses. Top each with ice and pour nut milk. Finally, pour the matcha green tea to create a beautiful drink. Stir and enjoy.

GREEN TAPIOCA & COCONUT CREAM CUPS



Green Tapioca & Coconut Cream Cups image

I tried to figure out how to re-create one of the best (and most simple!) desserts I had ever had at a Thai dessert house in LA's Thai Town. It really makes for an aesthetically appealing treat when you use the green tapioca balls--sometimes labeled "green tea" (as opposed to the clear).

Time 20m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups tapioca (mini, dried, & preferably green colored ones)
3 (14 ounce) cans coconut milk (or 1 3/4 cups coconut cream with 3 1/2 cups lighter coconut milk)
2 1/2 tablespoons tapioca (cornstarch has worked in a pinch as well) or 2 1/2 tablespoons arrowroot (cornstarch has worked in a pinch as well)
1/4 cup sugar, plus
1 tablespoon sugar
water
silver aluminum-type muffin paper cups (typically for cupcakes)

Steps:

  • Add dry tapioca balls in a pot, and cover with water.
  • Turn on medium to high heat, and wait until the water comes to a boil.
  • Watch closely, so as not to let the tapioca get mushy.
  • When the tapioca has become soft, drain the water from the pot and leave tapioca to cool.
  • In another medium sized pot, add the coconut milk (and or cream).
  • Heat, and add sugar, stirring intermittently to ensure that there are no lumps.
  • Ensure that the sugar has dissolved, and then add the thickening agent (flour or cornstarch). Continue to stir while the cream begins to thicken, and is smooth.
  • To make things easier, place the muffin cups in a muffin tin.
  • Fill each cup with about 1" of tapioca.
  • Follow by topping each with another 1" of coconut pudding.
  • Set tray in the refrigerator to cool (this will also let the coconut cream further set).
  • Serve when you can no longer resist staring at them!
