Description

This 4-Ingredient Taro Milk Tea is a quick and easy version of the popular bubble tea shop favorite. Made with taro root powder, milk, sweetener, and water, it’s rich, subtly nutty, and perfectly refreshing whether served hot or iced.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 tablespoons taro powder (instant or flavored)
  • 3/4 cup hot water
  • 3/4 cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
  • 12 teaspoons sweetener (sugar, honey, or syrup – optional)

Instructions

  • Dissolve the Taro Powder:
  • In a glass or mug, whisk the taro powder with hot water until fully dissolved and smooth.
  • Add Milk & Sweetener:
  • Stir in milk and sweetener to taste. Mix well.
  • Serve:
  • Enjoy hot or pour over ice for an iced version. Add cooked boba pearls if desired.

Notes

  • For an authentic flavor, use real taro root powder (not just flavored creamer-style powders).
  • Use oat or coconut milk for a creamier plant-based version.
  • Customize sweetness and add toppings like boba, pudding, or jelly.
