Halloween Boba Drink

Boba Drinks are perfect for Halloween! 

We love getting boba drinks at our favorite Thai restaurant. We have tried all different kinds. They way they serve it is basically with a milk shake/ smoothie on top. We love sucking up the boba pearls and chewing them. The black tapioca pearls make for a perfect companion to most any color of drink! I am decorating a lot with pink and black this year for Halloween, so I chose to do black boba with a pink drink! I wanted to share the fun with you today. The first thing you need to get is boba. This is what I got. It's an affiliate link. If you click on and buy a product from being on my website, I will make a small percentage.

Prepare the boba according to package directions. 

Boil 10 cups of water. 

Carefully add 1 cup of boba.

When the boba floats to the top, turn the water to medium, and cover, for two minutes.

Then, turn it down to simmer for two minutes.

Take out of bowl (I used a strainer) and place in cold water for 20 seconds.

Move to a dry bowl, and stir in sugar. I used about 2 tablespoons. Let it sit for a couple minutes, before placing in cups.

You can use pretty much any kid of shake or smoothie you want. Traditional boba has tea in it, but I chose to do a milkshake/smoothie texture for my family. I wanted it pink, and kid friendly. For my recipe, I used:

4 cups ice

2 cups vanilla ice cream.

2 cups milk (more if needed)

1 cup strawberry quick.

Mix it together in your mixer, and pour over boba. top with whipped cream, and serve with a fat straw that you can use to suck up the boba along with the drink. 

Enjoy this fun and easy drink any time. It's a crowd pleaser for sure!

Thanks for stopping by!
