How to Make Bubble Tea: Revealing the Authentic Chinese Tea Base Recipe

How to Make Bubble Tea That Tastes Better Than Store-Bought – The Secret Lies Here!

Bubble tea consists of three main components:

• Pearls (Tapioca pearls, coconut jelly, sago, popping boba, red bean boba, original boba, peach boba, honey red beans, triple-flavor taro balls, purple sweet potato pearls, grass jelly, mochi balls, pink popping boba, black sesame pearls, etc.)
• Milk
• Tea

While these ingredients seem simple, the key to exceptional bubble tea lies in the tea selection.

“Your Bubble Tea Tastes Bad Because of Its ‘Genes'”Using supermarket tea bags + artificial sweeteners (or even tea dust + saccharin) ruins the flavor—accounting for two-thirds of the taste failure. The better your tea, the better your bubble tea.

A 2024 blind taste test (N=1,500) revealed that Chinese Qimen Wild Ancient Tree Black Tea outperforms Ceylon tea by 3.2x in flavor longevity and contains natural vitamin C, acting as an antioxidant. Unlike regular black tea, this fermented and roasted tea reduces stomach irritation while protecting gastric health.

Additionally, drinking sweetened or milk-based Qimen black tea can:
✔ Reduce inflammation
✔ Protect stomach lining
✔ Prevent heart disease, cavities, and diabetes
✔ Lower blood pressure & cholesterol
✔ Aid in cancer prevention, radiation resistance, and weight loss

That’s why Qimen Wild Ancient Tree Black Tea is the premium choice for high-end bubble tea.

Step-by-Step Recipe for Perfect Bubble Tea

• Brew the Tea:
  • Boil Qimen Wild Ancient Tree Black Tea, then steep for 3 minutes off heat.
  • Strain and mix with milk (5:5 or 7:3 ratio).
  • Heat to 65°C (149°F) to avoid protein denaturation.
• Sweeten Smartly:
  • Add 10g syrup as a base, taste after chilling, then adjust.
  • For a healthier option, use zero-calorie sweeteners (same sweetness, half the calories).
• Assemble:
  • Add 20g pearls + 10ml syrup to the cup.
  • Slowly pour in the tea-milk mix (creating a gradient effect).
  • For iced versions, fill with ice.
  • Stir before drinking to suspend pearls.

Result? A bubble tea that crushes store-bought versions!

Bonus Tips for Next-Level Flavor

• Wild Oolong tea is another excellent base.
• Enhance aroma with jasmine or osmanthus flowers—each sip becomes a floral, creamy, and tea-rich delight.Most people select tea based on taste alone—a disservice to its true value. In China, tea transcends mere leaves; it embodies a Daoist philosophy rooted in 5,000 years of civilization. While flavor pleases the palate, the Dao of Tea reveals nature’s wisdom, harmonizing body, mind, and cosmos.

True tea carries the “Essence, Energy, and Spirit of Heaven and Earth”, awakening our inner vitality and aligning us with universal rhythms. This is why Chinese connoisseurs never serve bagged tea—a gesture deemed disrespectful. Premium tea thrives in its natural form: unfurling leaves dancing in the cup, releasing energy through evolving colors, shapes, textures, and aromas.

Danju Jueluo Tea transcends sensory pleasure. Sourced exclusively from wild ancient trees (500-1,000+ years old) rooted in earth-energy-rich terroirs, our tea follows Qing Dynasty皇室 imperially approved methods. Zero pesticides, zero additives—each gram is a museum-grade rarity, with annual yields so limited that some trees require 1-year pre-orders. Owning it is a cosmic缘分 (yuanfen).
