tips: 1. make sure ALL the brown sugar is dissolved before adding in cornstarch 2. don't wait until it cools to start rolling them into balls 3. make sure the water is boiling when cooking the balls or else the balls will melt into the water 4. as said in the video please stir the balls while in the pot I've made boba many times and once I forgot to stir and I had to scrape it off the bottom 5. ice water bath is so important if not done the balls will all stick together 6. if your pearls aren't super black like the ones from the shops don't worry they use food coloring which is unessacary if they are super light you didnt add enough brown sugar or the sugar isn't strong enough hope this helps good luck making

Thank you for this recipe!! I didn't have any tapioca flour on hand so I decided to try with cornstarch. I was afraid it would not be chewy, but it was the same, if not MUCH BETTER, than store bought bubble tea boba! To anyone trying to make this: - This is amazing, don't be afraid to try it! - Follow the instructions EXACTLY, step by step - Be patient at 1:05, it WILL turn into a dough like texture eventually, I promise :) - I used a mixture of light brown sugar and dark brown sugar. According to the comments, you should be able to get away with granulated sugar, light brown sugar, or dark brown sugar.

This was AMAZING I've never made boba before and I got it right in one try. Its super easy! Would recommend. WORD OF ADVICE- - when you're putting the boba into the ice cold water, keep in only for 30 seconds to 1 min or else it will become too chewy. - Remember to keep a plastic wrap on the boba dough when you're cutting it, unlike the person making the video, I didn't do it and it turned out too chewy but it was absolutely amazing!! - The boba dough will take some time to form so don't freak out! I simply didn't stir it for 5-10 seconds and it started to from the dough (I did continuosly stir it after that tho.)
