Passion Fruit Milk Tea - The Tart Fruit Flavored Bubble Tea

Passion Fruit Milk Tea

 

 

 

Passion fruit bubble tea is made from the tropical fruit that grows predominantly in South America. It can also be found produced in the United States, in California, and Florida. Thr fruit grows like weeds, so it doesn't make sense for someone to pay expensive prices for the fruit, if they can grow it on their own, or just buy the syrup. It flourishes mainly in the warmer climate, but can grow all throughout the year. The plants become quite weighty with the fruit and the many vines that it grows on.

 

The taste of the passion fruit boba is tarty, meaning that it is sour with some sweetness. This is the closest you can get to a naturally flavored tart candy-like bubble tea, unless you use lemon or lime. There are different varieties of this one fruit that can grow into a purple passion fruit, or the yellow passion fruit. Most find the taste of the purple to taste better than the yellow, while others favor the yellow more.

 

I generally love all fruits, and find the sour flavors to be fun. The sweet flavor from the passion fruit makes it like a sugared lemonade, but with its own unique taste. While making the drink, if milk is added, it does smoothen the taste more, so I would recommend more flavoring if you want more of the tartness.

You can purchase the syrups here if you need it for making the bubble tea:

 

2 to 3 tablespoons of passion fruit syrup or more should be enough to give that fruit flavor for a 16oz drink. More would be needed for a more sour flavor if you are using actual milk to make the drink, because the milk may mask the flavor a bit.
