Equipment

  • 1 Saucepan
  • 1 Cocktail Shaker

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Rum
  • 2 oz Aqua Fresca Juice
  • 1-2 oz Almond Milk
  • 0.5-1 oz Chamomile Tea Syrup
  • Better Boba Classic Brown Sugar Tapioca Pearls (Add as much boba as your heart desires!)

Instructions

First, prepare the Chamomile Tea Syrup:

  • Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan.
  • Remove the saucepan from heat and add 2 chamomile tea bags to the hot water. Let the tea steep for about 5 minutes to infuse the water with chamomile flavor.
  • After steeping, remove the tea bags from the saucepan, pressing gently to extract any remaining liquid.
  • Return the saucepan to low heat and gradually stir in 1 cup of granulated sugar. Continue stirring until the sugar completely dissolves.
  • Once the sugar has dissolved, increase the heat to medium and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help thicken the syrup slightly.
  • After simmering, remove the saucepan from the heat and let the chamomile tea syrup cool to room temperature.
  • Once cooled, transfer the syrup to a clean and airtight container. You can strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any chamomile residue if desired.

Finishing the Boozy Boba:

  • In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of rum, 2 oz of aqua fresca juice, 1-2 oz of almond milk, and 0.5-1 oz of chamomile tea syrup. Adjust the quantities to suit your taste preferences, whether you prefer a stronger or lighter flavor profile.
  • Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously to mix all the ingredients together and create a harmonious blend of flavors.
  • Prepare a serving glass by adding a generous amount of the cooked and cooled Better Boba Classic Brown Sugar Tapioca Pearls to the bottom.
  • Pour the Tropical Twist Boozy Boba mixture from the shaker into the glass, ensuring that the boba pearls are evenly distributed throughout the drink.
  • Grab a wide and sturdy reusable straw, allowing you to savor the chewy pearls and sip on the delightful concoction simultaneously.
  • Sip and enjoy your tropical escape in a glass
