Step 1.)
Step 2.)
Fill a large pot about halfway and let it come to a rolling boil.
Brown Sugar is really important in flavoring the boba. Youll want to add about a tablespoon to the water you boil the boba in. This way, the boba absorbs the sweetness. After you add the brown sugar, add in your boba balls and let them boil for 1 minute. After that, turn the heat down to medium and let them boil for about 40 minutes.
Step 3).
After 40 minutes, strain your boba but make sure to leave some of the water in the pot! This will be used for boba syrup later! This is what your boba should look like after boiling!
Step 4.)
Put the boba back in your pot with a little bit of the water.
Add another tablespoon of brown sugar to the boba. This will make a delicious brown sugar syrup. Cover and let sit while you make the smoothie part of the drink!
Step 5.)
For step 5 you'll need the following:
a) Boba Powder.

For two servings, 6 tablespoons is recommended. This is honeydew flavor, my boyfriend's favorite and also very tasty.
b) 16 oz. of milk
b) About 2 cups of ice is recommended, but if you like more watery smoothies like I do, you can add less. More will make it like a slushy.
Step 6.) Throw these ingredients in the blender and blend!
Step 7.) Add your boba(along with the syrup) into the bottom of your cup and pour the smoothie on top of it. And there you have it!
