    Can you drink this is you are lack toes intolerant?

    • frogduck on 26/02/2022 - 10:21

      The package says contains milk so to be safe, I'd say no. For me I'm less affected by powdered milks than fresh milk though. Also for future reference it's "lactose" unless that was intentional.

        I am also less effected by milk powder than milk itself. I realised I couldn’t digest homogenised milk which is the most common milk variety in the supermarket and switched to non homogenised milk which isn’t much expensive than the generic brands . Milk Doesn’t affect me anymore . Give it a try !

            @buckster: Sorry mate. It worked for me and so did it for a lot of my Asian friends . It’s a very common issue we have . Sadly that leaves you with just the lactose free milk.

        can you try the lipton ones and let us know

        • d2567 on 26/02/2022 - 21:59

          I prefer the Lipton, but put the pearls in a small amount of boiling water for a couple of minutes and add skim milk instead of cold water to tea mix.
          Think Costco had large packets of these J way teas today for about $24.

      • eug on 26/02/2022 - 12:00

        I've tried Avalanche, Chatime, Lipton, and Bubble Me. I thought Avalanche was awful. The tea was very weak. Lipton was much better, but the pearls weren't sweet. Chatime had weak tea as well, but the pearls were better. So the Lipton tea sachet with Chatime pearls worked. Bubble Me is the best of the 3.

        I've also tried brewing proper tea with condensed milk and adding the pearls to it. That was the best.

        Maybe I should try this brand too!

        • xrayspice on 26/02/2022 - 23:52

          I agree with you, I bought caramel avalanche and it was horrible. Chatime is too weak, but I made he mistake of buying the jelly one so haven’t tried the pearls. Bubble me has the best tea flavour, but too expensive. My favourite is Lipton, milk tea and brown sugar, I like the harder tasteless pearls.

    I used to drink order original milk tea everytime I went to the shops. Now I buy those packs of 15 "Aik Cheong teh Tarik 3 in 1" (I find this is the nicest flavour) and just make a cup of it at home. If you buy the instant boba, it will be over half the price of this.

    • chinaman on 26/02/2022 - 14:02

      Which instant boba?

      • MeesusEff on 26/02/2022 - 15:58

        I dunno, I never bought one as I realised I liked the tea part more than the boba 😂 but there's a few on Amazon and I see it in Asian shops as well, 1 packet for under $5

    • Serapis on 26/02/2022 - 18:02

      Much cheaper just to DIY, i get a 1 kilo pack of tapioca balls from my local Asian store for ~$9 and mix it with lipton ceylon tea (brewed double strength) + condensed milk + milk + ice.

      Total costs around $20, tastes like Thai Milk tea with boba and lasts me many many serves.

  • navegante88 on 26/02/2022 - 12:12

    I bought these ones, the pearls (boba) are very good but the taste of the milk is quite average. Costco also sell a pack where the milk tastes good but the pearls taste horrible.

    Tapioca I heard rumours that stuff is unhealthy and might be made from dodgy factories with inferior plastic material or some other harmful stuff that isn't meant to be edible similar to the melamine incident with China milk powder is that true?

        Made in Taiwan, but yeah those old tyres taste great, can even use those wire thread in it as tooth picks. This must be a bargain, as the process of recycling those tyres would cost 100s times more then just boiling up some starch balls

          You would be surprised. Lots of free discarded tyres from a population of 1.4 billion people. Guessing you aren't familiar with all the food incidents in China.

          Plenty of other examples such as old cardboard, old leather belts and cut offs to make the pork in the bbq pork buns.

            @Sammyboy:

            Although they were unable to confirm what the pearls were made of, they described the material as “highly adhesive.”

            Although the Shandong Television report could not conclusively prove that the pearls were indeed made from shoes or tyres, this latest raft of bad publicity is likely to spell more bad news for the beleaguered bubble tea industry.

            @Sammyboy: i get what you mean, it not that hard to test what in these starch ball (or most food going into our country), hence we are very lucky to live in a country with strict food standards. Some slip through once and while but catch very quickly, and yes should be aware if which country our food came from.

            • Sammyboy on 26/02/2022 - 18:02

              @huu: scary thing is that not much imported food products are actually checked. There's just too many coming into the country. Just a random sample are actually tested. Also a lot of ingredient list stickers never list all the ingredients or are mostly false. So I generally pick food products from trusted countries or from the bigger brands (as Im assuming they would have better quality control and supervision over the factories).

      This is why if you have the time and patience, I would recommend making it yourself. The most tedious part is rolling the quantity of small balls.

        The ones linked Pelilah are agar pearls.

        If anyone wondering the difference, white pearls usually are agar, but agar pearls can come in other flavours like brown sugar, or sakura. Sakura pearls taste like raspberry soda imo.

      Microwave for roughly 20sec (depending on microwave) with water (enough to cover it all and a bit more).

      I did the mistake of following Avalanche's instructions for their boba, pretty awful. Now I just always do the boba first then, add milk tea powder top off with boiling water.

    My order was just delivered.

    Note: 2oz = 59.2 ml of liquid

    My 1st try = Cup with about 120ml hot water (double recommended) + microwaved pearls + 60ml cold Semi Skim UHT milk + large cube ice (2cm^3 each)
    Very sweet, very nice and creamy. Strong flavour.

    Next try I will increase to 200-240ml hot water to bring down the the richness.

    So what is your boba-mix?

    • noob999 on 28/02/2022 - 19:58

      2nd try… 400ml hot water 60ml Skim Milk UHT + pearls = much much nicer, still sweet, but more mellow and can really taste the condensed milk flavour

    • dbmitch on 28/02/2022 - 20:44

      double the proportions if you want a large 700ml glass boba cup, 10 ice cubes and fill the rest with milk, damn good stuff. definitely don't do this often or else addiction lol
