Taro Milk Tea Recipe from Scratch: Using Fresh Taro

Описание: #taro #milktea #asmr #drinkrecipe

As a kid, there was no other go to drink than a classic taro milk tea at the local boba shop. Light, sweet, and nutty, this drink has always had a special place in my heart. However, almost all boba shops now a days use fake (bad for you) powders to make this drink. In this video, I'm going to show you how it can be done just using simple ingredients. Take warning though, this drink is much more mild in flavor and is definitely not as sweet as its powder/syrup cousin. See full recipe in text below:

Taro Puree Ingredients:
-2 parts fresh taro root
-1 part water

Taro Puree Directions:
1. Cut up the fresh taro into small cubes
2. Add into a pot and cover with water
3. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 20-25 minutes
4. Strain the taro after it is soft and tender
5. Add cooked taro, 1 part water, and 1 part sugar into a blender
6. Blend until smooth
Chill before serving.
