How to Cook Tapioca Pearls

Water to tapioca ratio is 6:1 (for example, use 6 cups of water for 1 cup of tapioca). 

  • Boil water in a large pot or a rice cooker. 
  • Add the tapioca pearls to the boiling water. 
  • Stir the tapioca pearls and cover (don’t open the cover until it is fully cooked). 
  • Cook for 45 minutes. 
  • Turn off the heat and let the tapioca pearls sit for 30 minutes. 
  • Rinse cooked pearls with warm water for about 3 minutes and drain. 
  • Add to your favorite Magic Hour Bubble Tea and Serve with monk fruit or honey sweetener.

How to store your Boba Pearls

  • Dry boba: Uncooked tapioca pearls can be stored at room temperature for up to one year. 
  • Cooked boba: We recommend enjoying boba pearls within a few hours of cooking, although it can keep in the refrigerator for a few days. Store it in a simple syrup in the fridge. As time passes, the texture of the boba will change as it begins to lose its gummy consistency, so consuming it sooner is better than later.

    Two ways to make these?

    These came out so delicious when we made them. Soft and chewy just like our local boba tea places on island. I did get confused on which method to use for preparation as the package has a way to prepare them and we received a card with slightly different directions. We used the one where you stir occasionally as our liquid started to boil over the pot we used. I will use a deeper pot next time to prepare them. The texture was perfect and I got my bubble tea fix without having to leave my Ohana’s Hale.

    Fun for tea parties

    It was fun making special boba tea for my daughter at home. The tapioca pearls look beautiful in the blue pineapple tea, and I'm looking forward to trying them out in other drinks as well.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE!

    I’m a huge boba fan, and I love Zena’s teas. So I decided to buy these pearls to add into my Queen of the South tea, and it was amazing! I loved these so much, 100% suggest you try them out. :)
