Notes
Storage Tips
When making boba coffee, it’s tempting to make a ton of it in the hopes of drinking it all week. Trust me, you don’t want to do that, though, for the best flavors happen when you make it fresh. Plus, boba pearls get hard in the fridge and don’t retain that wonderful texture.
- Fridge: If you want to save your leftover coffee bubble tea, you should remove all the boba from the bottom. Then, you can keep your coffee boba in a mason jar for up to 2 days. Just make fresh boba when you’re ready to drink it. Here is a complete guide on How Long Does Milk Tea Last In The Fridge?
- Freeze: Please do not freeze this boba coffee recipe. Freezing it will ruin the texture, and it’s a waste. As you can see, the recipe is so simple you can make it whenever you want and enjoy the best flavors.
