Lychee Coconut Bubble Tea

Some bubble tea shops use milk powder rather than fresh milk or a combination of the two to achieve the desired creaminess in this Lychee Coconut Bubble Tea.

Yield: 1 (16 ounce) drink

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chilled, cooked bubble tea pearls*
• 1 cup crushed ice
• 1 cup canned lychees with syrup or fresh pitted fresh lychees OR other fresh fruits such as mango and papaya
• 3/4 cup coconut milk
• 1/4 cup homogenized milk or cereal cream
• 1 to 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
• Honey or sugar, to taste

Instructions

1. Place pearls in a large parfait glass.
2. Combine all remaining ingredients in a blender and blend for 1 minute or until mixture is frothy and creamy.
3. Pour into glass and serve with extra thick straws.

Notes

* A 230 gram package of dried/raw bubble tea pearls will make about 10 portions. Other fresh fruits such as papaya and mango make tasty substitutions.
