Ingredients

Blueberry 1 pint
Tapioca powder 1 cup
Brown Sugar 1 cup
Water 2 cups
Hibiscus tea 2 bags

Instructions

Wash the blueberries and lemon balm thoroughly.
Blend the blueberries until smooth. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, add tapioca flour gradually. Knead the flour into a dough gradually. Knead the flour into a dough that's firm but pliable, not too soft or sticky.
Shape the dough into small balls, forming the boba pearls.
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the boba pearls and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until they become translucent. Drain the cooked pearls and rinse under cold water.
In a saucepan, combine brown sugar and a little water. Heat gently to dissolve the sugar, creating a simple syrup. Add the blended blueberries and simmer for a few minutes.
Let the syrup cool completely and then refrigerate overnight.
Brew two hibiscus tea bags in hot water for 10 minutes. Remove the tea bags and let the tea cool.
In a serving glass, add a few cooked boba pearls, some crushed blueberries, chilled blueberry syrup, and the cooled hibiscus tea. Garnish with a sprig of fresh lemon balm.
