Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 fresh ripe mango
- 1 cup large tapioca pearls
- 2 cups low-fat milk
- 2 green tea bags
- 4 cups water
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
- 1 cup ice cubes
Instructions
Peel and dice the mango, removing the pit. Set aside in a blender.
In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the tapioca pearls and stir gently. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Turn off the heat and let the pearls sit for another 5 minutes until they become translucent. Drain and rinse the tapioca pearls in cold water to remove excess starch. Set them aside in a small bowl.
In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a simmer. Steep the green tea bags in the hot water for 3 minutes, then remove the bags and let the tea cool for a few minutes.
Add the cooled tea, low-fat milk, honey or agave syrup, and ice cubes to the blender with the diced mango. Blend until smooth.
Divide the cooked tapioca pearls between two large glasses.
Pour the mango tea mixture over the pearls, filling each glass.
Stir gently and serve with a wide straw to enjoy the pearls and mango drink together.
