I've never had #brownsugarboba -- an icy drink of milk and brown sugar with chewy tapioca pearls -- and since I'm a 3-hour drive from New York City where a branch of Tiger Sugar just opened up, I'm doing the next best thing and making it myself. Yep, the whole bit. Homemade tapioca pearls, a.k.a. boba, along with a dark brown sugar syrup topped with milk and cream. YEEESSS, please. 🧋
