Autumnal Red Bean Matcha with Popping Boba / Tapioca Pearls

Why this combination?

• Matcha: Offers a rich, earthy flavour that's perfect for autumn.
• Red Beans: A classic Asian dessert ingredient, adding a sweet and comforting element.
• Popping Boba / Tapioca Pearls: Provides a burst of fruity flavour / chewy texture balancing the earthy notes of the matcha.

Ingredients:

• Matcha powder
• Milk (dairy or plant-based)
• Canned red beans
• Green apple popping boba / tapioca pearls
• Honey or sugar (to taste)
• Ice

Instructions:

1. Prepare the matcha: Whisk matcha powder and a small amount of hot water together until a smooth paste forms. Gradually add cold milk while whisking continuously until frothy.
2. Combine ingredients: Fill your cup with ice. Add the matcha mixture, followed by a generous serving of canned red beans.
3. Top it off: Add green apple popping boba for a burst of fruity flavour / tapioca pearls for the chewy aspect. Sweeten to taste with honey or sugar.
4. Serve: Stir well before drinking.

Why this recipe works:

• Flavour profile: The earthy matcha pairs beautifully with the sweetness of the red beans and the tartness of the green apple popping boba.
• Texture: The juicy green apple popping boba and the soft red beans provide a delightful contrast in texture.
• Seasonal: The combination of matcha and red beans evokes warm, autumnal feelings.

For an even more indulgent treat:

• Add a swirl of sweet potato syrup: This will add a touch of sweetness and a hint of earthiness.
• Top with whipped cream: For a luxurious finish, top your bubble tea with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Customization Tips:

• Adjust sweetness: Taste your drink and adjust the sweetness with honey or sugar to your preference.
• Experiment with toppings: Try other types of popping boba or add toppings like jelly or pudding.
• Change the base: Instead of milk, you could use a non-dairy alternative or even a tea base for a different flavour profile.

Tips for Creating Your Own Recipes:

• Experiment with bases: Try different teas like oolong or jasmine for a unique flavour profile.
• Layer flavours: Combine complementary flavors like sweet and tart, or spicy and creamy.
• Consider the texture: Use a variety of toppings like popping boba, jelly, or pudding for different mouthfeels.
• Adjust sweetness: Taste your drink as you go and adjust the sweetness with syrup or sugar.

Additional Ideas Based on Inventory:

• Fruit-forward: Use fresh fruit purees or our jam concentrates like mango, strawberry, or lychee for a vibrant flavour.
• Creamy: Incorporate non-dairy creamer and powders like taro or matcha for a rich and creamy texture.
• Unique: Experiment with less common flavours like grapefruit or green apple.

Remember: The key to a great bubble tea is balance. Don't be afraid to experiment and find your perfect combination of flavours and textures.
