Instructions
Add about 5 cups of water and the sugar into a pot. Add in the tapioca pearls and boil for 20 minutes.
Brew the green tea leaves with hot water. Add the matcha and stir until combined.
#SpoonTip: Alternatively, you can buy powdered matcha green tea and just mix with hot water.
In a tall cup, add a generous scoop of the cooked tapioca pearls. Add honey or syrup to taste.
Fill the cup halfway with the tea, and fill the rest with almond milk. Top it off with a large straw and enjoy.
