Tapioca pearls are a popular ingredient in bubble tea. They are small, chewy balls made from tapioca flour. Tapioca pearls can be cooked in a variety of ways, but the most common method is to boil them in water. Brown sugar milk is a sweet drink that is often paired with tapioca pearls. It is made with brown sugar, milk, and water.

- If the tapioca pearls are too soft, they will fall apart.
- If the tapioca pearls are too hard, they will be difficult to chew.
- The brown sugar syrup should be thick and syrupy.
- If the brown sugar syrup is too thin, it will not be sweet enough.
- If the brown sugar syrup is too thick, it will be too sweet.
Variations:
