Why You'll Love This Recipe

⭐️Delicious, better than your favorite takeout!

⭐️Simple, easy to make!

⭐️ It's a delicious, creamy drink with chewy bubbles.

Ingredients

  • Avocados: Fully ripened avocados are great because they are smooth and silky. I've used the haze avocados from Costco.
  • Boba pearls are available online or in Asian markets. They are available in two colors(white and black) and different sizes. I have used medium black boba pearls.
  • Condensed milk: The condensed milk's flavor and color work great for the avocado boba tea. You may substitute this with green tea.
  • Milk: Choose the milk of your choice. Plant-based milk, like almond, soy, or cashew milk, will also work. Adjust the quantity to adjust the thickness of this avocado bubble tea.

How To Make Avocado Bubble Tea

  1. Cook the tapioca pearls according to the package instructions. Strain and mix them with honey, ensuring they are well coated. Set aside.
  1. Combine the avocado, milk, condensed milk, and ice cubes in a blender. Blend until smooth. Alternately layer the tapioca pearls and the avocado mixture in a serving glass. Serve immediately.

The Leftovers

  • This is not a freezer or refrigerator friendly recipe.
  • This avocado bubble tea is perfect when made and served immediately. As avocado browns after an hour, the boba becomes hard to chew after 3-4 hours.

FAQ

What is Bubble Tea?

Bubble tea, also known as boba, is a popular drink from Taiwan. It is usually made with milk, sugar, and boba. The bubble is small, spherical, and chewy, and it has jelly-like balls made with tapioca starch.
Recently, these have become widely available in the United States in cafes, malls, food courts, and more.

Can I substitute condensed milk?

Yes, absolutely. You can substitute sweetened coconut or oat milk for this avocado bubble tea. If you use unsweetened or regular milk, you can add some sugar to balance the sweetness.

What variations can I try?

Toss berries with avocado for freshness. Add mint, basil, or cilantro for flavor. Pair avocado with mango, banana, or kiwi. Enhance sweetness with vanilla, dark chocolate, or matcha.

Best to serve with?

Pair with Japanese sweet potato fries. Enjoy with spicy shrimp sushi rolls. Spicy kale salad complements well. Grilled or BBQ meat makes a perfect side for this dish.

How to make the lighter version?

You can substitute the condensed milk with the green tea.

How to make the dairy-free version of this avocado bubble tea recipe?

You can replace the condensed milk with sweetened condensed coconut or other plant-based milk.
