Plating

Serve the boba tea in a clear glass, as this is the best to show the different layers and colourful ingredients. The glass should be large enough to hold the tea, boba pearls, and garnish. Also, be sure to add a good amount of boba tea before pouring the tea.

Pairing

Pair Homemade Boba Tea with freshly baked chocolate chip cookies or matcha cookies. The rich flavour of the cookie pairs well with the creamy and sweet texture of the tea.

Garnishing

Garnish the Homemade Boba Tea with a sprig of fresh mint leaf, this gives a pop of colour and a nice fresh flavour. You can also garnish with some fresh berries like blueberries and raspberries.
