Ingredients
- ¼ cup tapioca pearls
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 cup non-dairy milk
- 1 scoop Matcha Shake Sculpt + Debloat Protein Powder
- 1 tbsp monk fruit confectioners sweetener
- ½-1 tsp matcha powder (optional for a deeper matcha flavor and green hue)
- 3 tbsp non-dairy vanilla creamer (optional)
Instructions
- Bring 4 cups of water to a boil, then add the tapioca. Once the pearls have floated to the top (about 3-5 minutes), cover and reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes, until soft and chewy. * Note: Instructions may vary depending on the type of tapioca used. Follow the instructions on the package for best results.
- Drain, then place in a small saucepan with the honey or maple syrup, stirring over low heat for 3 minutes. Remove from heat to cool.
- To a mini blender, add the milk, protein powder, sweetener and matcha powder (if using). Blend for 10 seconds.
- Assemble the beverage by adding the tapioca to the bottom of a tall glass. Fill the glass halfway with ice. Pour the matcha milk mixture on top, and serve immediately with a boba straw.
- If you’d like to add a creamy layer on top, use a frother to froth the non-dairy creamer and spoon it on top of the beverage.
