5-Minute Boba

So yeah, if you've never had boba before, you're missing out a funky, but super yummy snack. Boba are the little black balls you see at the bottoms of those cups up there. The black/dark brown is the original flavor, but they also come in green tea, some pink flavor, and completely plain rainbow (they look pretty, but really, they don't taste like anything).

Anyways, I was introduced to this drink by my boyfriend's cousin a few years back, and have loved it ever since. I haven't been able to find many places that offer boba, so finally I got around to getting and making my own. To make it the traditional way, it takes about half an hour of boiling and such for them to be done. But just this summer, that same cousin gave me some "Minute boba" (it really should be 5-minute boba) that's literally done in 5 minutes.

I love it. I can now get my boba fix whenever I want, even if I don't have a lot of time. It's just wonderful.
