Boba Tapioca Instant Pearls with Brown Sugar, 12 Packs of Black Microwaves Tapioca Pearls for Boba Bubble Tea, Ready in 25 Seconds, No Corn Syrup, Preservant

My favorite boba brand I’ve tried most of the instant boba pearls on the market and like this brand the best. It’s easy to cook in microwave oven (30 sec in my case) and has great brown sugar flavor. Chewy texture is very close to store bought boba. Note: you will need to have your own tea ready because this product is tapioca boba pearls only, not a kit.

I have tried several brands of instant boba, most come with powdered tea mix which I'm not a fan of as I'd rather brew my own tea, and also a lot only come in packs of 5 or 6 so I was excited to find this pack of 12 just boba. I also have cooked my own boba the long boiling way and was excited to see a faster singlw-serve option hit the market recentt. These boba are a nice size close to what you get in a bubble tea shop (some others have very small pearls) and I've found I need to microwave them for 30 seconds in my 1000W microwave for them to be perfect. The first time I made them following the instructions they were inconsistently cooked and about half were still chalky in the middle so I rinsed them off and put them back in for a bit longer, ever since I've done 30sec and they've been perfect every time. They are the perfect amount of chewiness once they've been added to an iced drink and sit for a few minutes compared to other brands which tend to stay very mushy. They also have a good brown sugar flavor that has permeated the boba vs some others that taste very bland. Overall, I'm very pleased with these, my only criticism is I wish there were maybe more boba per pack (maybe 75g?) and the price, while ok, is still a bit steep at $1.75 each for the 12 pack. If the 60 pack is ever available I hope it's a great value per pack since with multiple family members enjoying boba drinks at home, a 12 pack doesn't last long.

Tastes good but the texture wasn’t right even after preparing properly. Made me think they were expired or something.

Don't waste your money on buying it, not worth it at all. I tried heat it up with cutting the bag like instruction and without cutting the bag. Also trying boiled it with water, taste worse than flour. I tried both handmade and manufactured boba before so I can tell you, even the $3.99 packs sold in the markets outside taste a lot better

This boba is great tasting and so easy to heat up and enjoy. I found with my small microwave oven, 28 seconds produces the ideal chewy texture. Not overly sweet, which is a bonus too. Just add them to black tea concentrate and oat creamer (brown sugar flavor) from trader Joe and then some milk; this homemade boba compares with store bought one favorably and cost much less. Next time I’ll get the 60 pack because my family goes through 12 pack fast!
