📲 Our Pick Up Limes app is finally here (1-week free trial!): bit.ly/PUL_app 🎉 Android version coming soon! What’s your favourite bubble tea flavour? 🧋
Ok, funnily enough, I bought the exact same tapioca pearls brand (the green tea flavored version) like, THREE WEEKS AGO, and have been putting off making them because it's my first time and I couldn't find the motivation. This how-to video has the most PERFECT TIMING lol, thank you!
I’ve made the strawberry milk with matcha (so you get this beautiful green, red, white layers). I highly recommend this combo, sweet, earthy, just delicious.
I'm from Taiwan and I've been loving PUL for soooo long. I just couldn't stop screaming when I saw you upload a bubble tea video 😍😍😍 THANK YOU Sadia for introducing Taiwan at the beginning and creating these beautiful boba recipes!
As a Taiwanese living abroad, I have never bought and cooked pearls on my own though I saw them packed and on shaves in Asian supermarkets quite often. Now the video really motivated me to cook pearls eventually!! Also the instruction in the video is just exactly the same as the way the most of bubble tea shops in Taiwan do. Thank you Sadia😊
Part of what makes Thai Tea, specifically Cha Yen its distinct taste and aroma is that the tea leaves are Ceylon tea and the flavorings include a bunch of vanilla. It's so strongly vanilly flavored, in particular the famous Cha Tra Mue brand. I kind of just recommend finding Cha Tra Mue if you can and use that with some milk. They also have a great Oolong Rose that works fantastically as a milk tea as well.
Would 50/50 Ceylon tea and vanilla rooibos maybe be a decent option if you can’t get hold of the real stuff? The vanilla rooibos is very distinctly vanilla-y 😄
These recipes feel like tiny trips to exotic lands. And if the delicious-looking presentation weren't enough then there was that amazing ASMR sound of the ice and the glass as you mixed the tea, just an overall delight 😍
@@cycast3356 Given the word "exotic" literally means from outside or foreign, yes, from where I am which is Europe something from halfway across the globe that offers me a different sensory or cultural experience is exotic by definition. To someone from Asia, Europe would be considered exotic. Your confusion is really not knowing what the word exotic means :)
@@stupor_mundi I'll chalk up your reply as simply ignorance of the word "exotic" that was mostly used in the colonialism and rooted in mostly white culture references for anything "non-white". And no, I had never used "exotic" to describe Europe because it's an archaic term to describe something foreign. So, if you please. Shut the hell up colonizer.
I'm from Taiwan so it's great to see that Sadia introduced boba tea here. Just a quick reminder for those who want to try the recipes, if you can't find the instant tapioca pearls like what Sadia bought, then make sure you boil and simmer it for 3 times, otherwise it would be too hard.
South Africa here🇿🇦Just found your channel, love your calm energy⭐️ The tea you mentioned in your Thai Iced tea is Rooibos, it’s an Afrikaans pronunciation, it translates to Red Bush. It is an indigenous South African plant and it is my favorite kind of tea🥺
I have always loved bubble teas! I moved back to my tiny hometown to take care of my 92 yr old Mom where there's no access to anything authentically Asian . I've been buying what I need off of Amazon. So I appreciate your excellent video instructions on making bubble teas!! Ordering on Amazon now, lol
Hey Sadia, A quick tip for the matcha boba drink. Consider layering mashed strawberries with some maple syrup along with the boba, then oat milk, and matcha. It makes the matcha taste more fruity and gives a delicious spin to the entire drink! Thanks for the delicious recipes :)
Wow! My husband is Phillippino and we ship at several different Asian stores throughout NWArkansas. Boba was always something that intrigued me, but there are so many kinds I could never decide. I prefer the dark brown ones best and Ive even made it with instant tea. 😳 But brewed tea is best. Just black tea, condensed milk and the pearls!
I’ve recently discovered your channel! Just wanted to let you know how inspiring you are! You have such a calming vibe and just so kind! Thank you for all your videos and resources! I hope you continue to follow your passions!
Boba isn’t something typical to where I live which is so sad but now, I’ve got this video to help me experience the taste for the first time ever. Ahhhh! So excited💃🏽💃🏽
I 've tried to make it tiny tiny little Boba. Without sugar, so that's why they stick all together. So funny😂 This video taught me how to make the right way.😊❤Thx.
I'm your fan from Taiwan! I've followed you for several years! Love your English intonation and the content you shared about your life. So amazed that you make a readily available drink in my country! By the way, I also like to make beverages by myself at home! And you use the ingredients 4:04 that are common to me but I didn't know their name... Thank you for recording the excellent bubble tea recipes^^
These all look INCREDIBLE! I’m adding tapioca pearls to my grocery list to give these a try. As always, thank you for the amazing recipe and knowledge.
As an Asian person thank you for getting the factual details correct! I love the little tidbits of cultural history throughout the video. Great content 😊
@@sigille one example I noticed is that she correctly defined ube, which is similar but different than taro. Often times, they are mistakenly used interchangeably. As a Filipino/Asian American, this was one of my favorite videos ^-^
I'm American, living in a highly cultural area (MS Gulf Coast) I agree with you ! I have so many friends that are teaching me something new everyday ! Mostly, Vietnamese, French, Cajun, and so much more ! Have an open mind, and learn as much as you can !😉
Thank you for the last one! I'm always looking for recipes avoiding caffeine, and I find that black, green, roibos and even matcha Teas don't let me sleep and keep me anxious. So happy to have a boba drink with fruit instead.
As a huge fan of boba tea/dessert person, I can’t thank you enough for making this great content. Here in Australia , any of these drink you made in this video can easily be marked $15-$20. So being able to make it at home is a huge money-saver move.
Greetings from Taiwan 👋 This is another great recipe video of yours! There are a lot of ways to add chewy stuffs into PB milk tea Even aloe cubes can be added! Anything jelly texture and sweet or mild can work 🤗
I love the outtakes at the end. I find myself laughing along and take comfort in that you are human and make mistakes too. Thank you for adding them in ❤🙌
Definitely making it with my 7 year old son who loves boba but I don't appreciate how sweet they always are!! Thank you they look delicious and like pieces of art!
I cannot tell you how excited I am for this… and I haven’t even watched it yet! I grew up and still live in Victoria BC and as a kid going down to Chinatown for bubble tea was a big thing! Since going vegan (5 years ago) I haven’t had bubble tea. This feels surreal and I am so excited to feed my inner child these delicious recipes! Thank you so much Sadia!
Thank you for making this video! My partner and I recently stopped drinking alcohol and have been looking for some drink recipes that are fun but nourishing. These are perfect!
It literally can’t be healthy if there’s sugar added to it, this RU-vidr happens to be slim so it can deceive the audience into thinking these recipes aren’t actual cancer promoting beverages.
Thanks for featuring ube in one of your recipes ❤️this is so creative, I want to start making my own milktea 😍. We have a lot of super sweet refreshing drinks here in the Philippines with tapioca pearls, gelatin, fruit, coconut milk, (ginilu, guinomis, sago & gulaman) which do need a healthy version🤣if I want to have them regularly.
OMG, I have never really understood what is the whole craze about with bubble tea but after watching this video there is nothing I want more than bubble tea! Especially that strawberries one 😍
I was just on Doordash about to order some boba tea when I received the notification for this video...now I'm going to my local Asian market instead to buy the tapioca pearls to make some boba tea myself!
Something else that is really good, especially if you don't like the tapioca pearls, is to use frozen fruits like chopped strawberries or blueberries instead of or with the pearls. That's how I've always liked mine.
Love love this vid, your whole calm demeanor, positive energy and your channel! Grateful for all that you offer to us all! Love ube as a Filipino here :)
Every drink looks incredible! I'm not a fan of tapioca pearls, but I love tea, so I will try the recipes without them. This will help me break out of a tea rut and try something a little more fancy!
I have seen the brand of tapioca pearl that you used next time I will get that one. The one I bought requires 1 hour of cooking so not too efficient. And I really liked your enthusiasm during the video.
I wonder if tapioca pearls have prebiotic qualities...? Maybe I need to add this to the line up of prebiotics I'm testing (with pre and post-intervention stool studies)!
Hi! I’m using my dads account for RU-vid and I tried your strawberry milkshake one and it was amazing. I didn’t have frozen strawberries so instead I did frozen mixed berries with brown sugar boba and it was amazing. Thank you for sharing recipes like this. I’m saying this one more time…. It was AMAZING and my parents liked them tooo!
OMgosh, those look soooo delicious! Love the look of the strawberry 🍓 it layers beautifully! And the matcha! And, Thai Tea is my favorite lol. They all look scrumptious ❤
I've been your follower for the longest time and I love your inspiring contents, Sadia. However, I have one thing to say, as a Thai person, we do not add food coloring to our tea. There are actually complicated ways of boiling and adding different types of milk for the tea's natural color. I don't know how it's done in the western world, though. So it might be true for western restaurant to add food coloring to the tea. I just wanted to make that clear because it's been on my mind for the past few days. I hope this information is helpful. Love your contents as always 💖💖💖
I really enjoy all kinds of Bubble Tea. There is No way I would make it myself though, I just don't do anything in the kitchen anymore. But I am lucky there are a lot of places near me that make.
This is great this few days I try make buble tea ube But I use ube conference milk in a can the I blend taro and mixing it quite weird taste haha but I like it, This time I will follow your way thank you so much so I know now how to made it
Thank you so much for the bubble tea recipes. I love bubble teas but they are so expensive. So much so I usually would just get one for my grandson and forego the treat myself. Now I can make them for the whole family.
Since I have very young kids, I don’t have much time to make bubble tea by my self. However I BECOME happy already thanks for your beautiful video. I feel like I had 5 cups of bubble tea. Thank you so much.
Ooh yayyy! Just love love love all your videos, Sadia!!! Regularly follow you and there are videos that I’ve watched many times simple because it’s so therapeutic 🥰 Love all your videos and Vlogs. So therapeutic and informative and entertaining all at the same time! Could you please please VLOG on how you actually make these videos, from shooting to editing, which software, audio recording , and until you make it Final? Also, maybe a video on nutrition available in vegan food for pregnant women and kids?
Delicious receipes! It would be so great if you could do the pearls from scratch. I don't have access to them, only online but they are sooo expensive. Once I bought some white ones (the only ones I could find) and even though I boiled them for more than 1 hour I wasn't able to make them eatable 🙁.
Making your own pearls is relatively easy, you pretty much just need tapioca starch, water and brown sugar. I got my tapioca starch and Bulk Barn (which is basically a raw bulk ingredients store if you can find something similar). We make our own pearls quite often because my kids love to eat the pearls the most.
