Bubble Tea in 10 Minutes | ชานมเย็น
This is my absolute favourite drink to have when I work from home! If could, I would drink this on a daily basis. But unfortunately I have to restrict it to a weekly basis.
When I was living in Thailand for 5 years, this would be my go-to-drink because it was only $1.25 CAD. Since coming back to Canada, I've realized that a large bubble tea is $7.
I knew something had to change because the craving for bubble tea is REAL and I am NOT spending that much for it!
Don't worry guys, I got a solution to all your bubble tea problems because this recipe is easy and affordable if you need a little kick to your day.
