How to Cook Tapioca Boba Pearls (Step‑by‑Step Guide)

If you want perfectly chewy tapioca boba for your bubble tea, follow this simple cooking guide. The ratios below are based on 1,000 g of tapioca pearls.

Ingredients & Equipment

• 1,000 g tapioca boba pearls

• 7,000 cc (7 litres) of water

• Large pot

• Colander / strainer

• Purified water for rinsing

• Sugar or honey syrup for soaking

---

Step 1 – Bring Water to a Boil

Bring 7,000 cc of water to a rolling boil at around 100°C in a large pot.
Use enough water so the pearls have space to move and cook evenly.

---

Step 2 – Add Tapioca Pearls

Slowly pour 1,000 g of tapioca boba into the boiling water, stirring constantly to prevent them from sticking to the bottom or clumping together.

---

Step 3 – Cook Until Pearls Float

Keep the water boiling and continue to stir occasionally.
Cook until the tapioca pearls float to the surface, then start timing your cook according to the size of the pearls:

Recommended cooking times (boiling):

• 2.5 mm pearls – cook 25 minutes

• 2.3 mm pearls – cook 20 minutes

• 2.0 mm pearls – cook 15 minutes

• 1.2 mm pearls – cook 7 minutes

---

Step 4 – Cover and Simmer

Once you’ve reached the cooking time above:

• Turn the heat down and cover the pot, leaving a small gap so steam can escape.

• Tapioca boba should be cooked at or just below the boiling point (gentle rolling boil).

Stir the pearls from time to time so they don’t stick together.

---

Step 5 – Turn Off Heat and Let Sit

After the initial cook time:

• Turn off the heat and move the pot slightly off the stove.

• Keep the lid on and let the pearls sit in the hot water for the resting time below:

Recommended resting (covered) times:

• 2.5 mm pearls – rest 30 minutes

• 2.3 mm pearls – rest 25 minutes

• 2.0 mm pearls – rest 20 minutes

• 1.2 mm pearls – rest 5 minutes

During this stage, the temperature of the tapioca boba is usually between 40–50°C, allowing the centre to finish cooking.

---

Step 6 – Rinse Until Water Runs Clear

Pour the cooked pearls into a colander or strainer and rinse them with purified water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps improve texture.

---

Step 7 – Coat with Sugar or Honey Syrup

Gently shake the colander to remove excess water.
Transfer the pearls into a clean food container and:

• Add some granulated sugar or

• Pour in a little honey syrup or brown sugar syrup

Stir to coat the pearls evenly. This keeps them from sticking together and adds flavour.

Reminder: If the pearls start to feel sticky again after a while, simply add a bit more sugar or dilute syrup and mix.

How Long Can Cooked Tapioca Boba Be Kept?

For the best texture and taste, cooked tapioca boba should be consumed within 4 hours after cooking.
After that, the pearls will gradually harden and lose their chewiness.

FAQ: Common Tapioca Boba Questions

Why are my pearls hard in the centre?
They were not cooked or rested long enough. Check the size and follow the timing table above.

Why are my pearls mushy or falling apart?
They were cooked or rested for too long, or the heat was too high. Keep to a gentle boil and follow the time guidelines.

How do I store cooked pearls between orders?
Keep them in a covered food container, soaked in sugar or honey syrup at room temperature. Do not refrigerate – the cold will harden the pearls.
