    "Ube Milk Tea Recipe with Step by Step Pictures. Ube Bubble Tea or Purple Sweet Potato Milk tea is a delicious refreshing drink."

    Pin

    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.

    TIPS & TRICKS

    1. I used purple sweet potato powder | Ube powder which I found in amazon. It gives natural purple colour to many desserts.
    2. You can find boba pearls in amazon.
    3. Fill the serving cup with ice cubes if needed.
    4. You can increase the sweetness level by increasing the sweetened condensed milk.
    5. You can add sugar instead of sweetened condensed milk.
    6. If you can find fresh purple sweet potato powder then use that.

    STORAGE SUGGESTIONS

    You can make the ube base in advance and store in fridge for upto 3 to 4 days.
