I love bubble tea. They are not only easy to make but taste so good. My kids love boba drink too. So i usually buy a large packet of boba from amazon and store in fridge. I have made quite a few boba recipes on my blog before.

This recipe i have been eyeing on for a while now. I had purple sweet potato powder on hand so I wanted to use that to make this boba drink. Specially for this colour.
