Description
The fruity bubble tea kit makes 12 fruit teas and comes boxed with the syrups, powders, popping boba, tapioca pearls, tea bags, cups and straws to make them, so there is nothing else to buy. It is our best-selling kit, and the one to give a first-timer.
What is in the box
- Fruity flavoured syrups and powders.
- 3 × 100g popping boba pots.
- 200g tapioca pearls.
- Speciality tea bags.
- Bamboo bubble tea straws.
- Reusable cups and recipe instructions.
Brew a tea bag strong, cool it, stir in syrup at 1 part to 5, and finish with a spoon of popping boba or a scoop of cooked pearls. The powders make the milk-tea style drinks at 1 part powder to 12 parts hot water or milk. The pearls are the one thing that needs a pan: 25 to 30 minutes, then a rest. The syrup, powder and popping boba flavours are chosen when the kit is packed and are named on their labels.
Which kit. The Summer Fruits kit is the same box with a summer line-up of syrups and powders; the Traditional kit names its tea bags, oolong or jasmine; the Milk kit and the Coffee Shop kit are the milk tea and iced coffee versions. All five make 12 drinks and share the same pearls, popping boba, tea bags, cups and straws.
- Makes 12 drinks.
- Cups and straws included.
