Total time: 10-15 minutes depending on your manufacturers tapioca pearls preparation.

Please read fully before starting.

Ingredients:

1 can of full fat coconut milk (for meal replacement version) or 2 cups of non dairy milk for regular version

1/4 cup of tapioca pearls (if you like more, add more)

1 to 2 teaspoons of matcha green tea powder

1/4 cup of hot water (165 degrees Fahrenheit is ideal)

4 tablespoons of (2 for the tapioca pearls and 2 for the drink; use more or less depending on your taste) Agave or other vegan sweetener

1 small avocado (optional; helps make the texture smooth)

3 tablespoon of hemp protein powder (optional; I used Nutiva but I would only use this if you've had hemp protein in the past and enjoyed it; adds protein to the meal replacement version)

Directions:

Step 1: Follow the manufacturers instructions to prepare the tapioca pearls.

Step 2: Once the tapioca pearls are finished add them to a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of agave or another vegan sweetener of your choice (use more or less depending on your taste).

Step 3: Mix the tapioca pearls and the sweetener together and set aside.

Step 4: In a small bowl sift 1 to 2 teaspoons of matcha powder.

Step 5:. Add the hot water (165 degrees Fahrenheit is ideal).

Step 6: Whisk together using a bamboo whisk (you can buy one separately or buy a matcha green tea set; if not you can use what you have).

Step 7: Whisk in an "M" shape until matcha becomes frothy (skip to step 11 for a basic matcha drink).

Step 8: Fill a blender with a handful of ice, 1 can of full fat coconut milk (or 2 cups of non dairy milk), your fresh whipped matcha, agave (or other vegan sweetener), avocado (optional), and hemp protein (optional). Blend your ingredients together.

Step 9: In a large glass add some of your tapioca pearls.

Step 10: Add your blended matcha drink into the glass and enjoy.

Step 11: Alternatively, you can start from step 7 and:

Get a large glass, add Boba, ice, and 1.5 to 2 cups of non dairy milk, and the whisked matcha green tea on top (in the order). Add sweetener to your taste.

Enjoy!
