How To Make Thai Milk Cap Tea with Boba and Grass Jelly

It’s SUMMERRR! One of our favorite drinks is Thai Tea! To be extra fancy, we are adding toppings like boba, grass jelly and milk cap. What is boba? They are made of tapioca starch, which is then combined in an industrial mixer “with brown sugar syrup, water, potassium sorbate and guar gum, to produce a damp, caramel-colored powder,” according to the New York Times. The result is a mostly flavorless, chewy black bubble. What is grass jelly? They are made by boiling the aged and slightly oxidized stalks and leaves of Platostoma palustre (Mesona chinensis) with potassium carbonate for several hours with a little starch and then cooling the liquid to a jelly-like consistency Wikipedia What is milk cap? It is a layered creamy milk foam on a tea drink with a frothy top layer of cream cheese (hence the name milk cap) made from milk and Himalayan pink salt giving it a slightly salty taste. This is super easy to make. 1 out of 5 difficulty level only. Get the full printable recipe here: We find the tapioca pearl, thai tea mix and grass jelly at our local Asian market.
