Fruity Tapioca Jelly Drink

A Fruity Tapioca Jelly Drink is a refreshing, colorful beverage combining sweet fruit flavors, chewy tapioca pearls, and jelly cubes in a creamy or juicy base. It’s a popular treat in bubble tea shops and Asian cafés. Here’s an overview and a simple recipe if you want to make it at home:

A Fruity Tapioca Jelly Drink typically includes:

• Tapioca pearls – chewy “boba” made from cassava starch

• Fruit jelly – often made with agar or konjac in mango, lychee, or coconut flavors

• Fruity base – fruit juice, milk tea, or smoothie-style blend

• Sweetener – optional, like honey or syrup

• Ice or chilled – served cold for refreshment

🍹 Simple Homemade Recipe

🧋 Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup milk or coconut milk (optional, for creamy style)

• 1–2 tsp simple syrup or honey (to taste)

• Ice cubes

🧑‍🍳 Directions:

1. Cook Tapioca Pearls

   • Boil tapioca pearls according to package instructions (usually 5–10 mins), then let them sit covered for a few minutes.

   • Rinse with cold water and toss in a little sugar or syrup.

2. Prepare Jelly Cubes

   • If using store-bought jelly, cut into small cubes. You can also use jelly cups.

   • Stir gently. Add a fat straw and enjoy!

🧠 Tips & Variations:

• Vegan? Use coconut milk and agar jelly.
