Homemade raspberry boba pearls made with fresh raspberries and tapioca flour, served in raspberry milk or your favorite drink. Sweet, chewy, and fun to make from scratch.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 Tbsp. white sugar
  • 1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp. tapioca flour
  • 1 Tbsp. honey
  • Raspberry milk, or drink of choice

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mash the raspberries and white sugar together with a fork. Microwave for 30–60 seconds.
  2. Strain the mixture, reserving the raspberry juice. Save the raspberry pulp for making raspberry milk if desired.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon tapioca flour to the raspberry juice and mix well. Microwave for about 60 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until a thick, slime-like mixture forms.
  4. Add the remaining 1/2 cup tapioca flour and mix until a dough forms and is no longer sticky.
  5. Roll the dough into tiny balls. Cook the boba in boiling water for 20 minutes.
  6. Turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the boba sit for an additional 20 minutes.
  7. Sweeten the cooked boba with honey or another sweetener if desired.
  8. Add the boba to glasses with ice and pour in raspberry milk or your preferred drink. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • The reserved raspberry pulp can be blended into milk for extra raspberry flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness with honey, sugar, or maple syrup to taste.
  • Serve the boba soon after cooking for the best chewy texture.
  • Use a wide straw when serving.
