![]() The good news is that you can order or make boba tea with less added sugar. One boba tea can have 2-3 times the daily recommended amount of added sugar. The American Heart Association recommends that Americans’ daily sugar intake doesn’t exceed nine teaspoons for men and six teaspoons for women. Drinks high in sugar can lead to obesity, diabetes, or heart disease. A standard 16 oz bottle of soda has 12 teaspoons of sugar. This results in 38-80 grams of sugar per serving. A typical 16 oz boba tea contains between 8.5 and 20 teaspoons of sugar. What Is the Sugar Content of Boba Tea?īoba tea has high levels of sugar. High blood sugar levels can also contribute to cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, and weight gain. Over time, unregulated high blood sugar can lead to diabetes. ![]() Without insulin, your body has trouble regulating blood sugar. If you suffer from type 1 or type 2 diabetes, you already know that your body struggles to produce sufficient insulin or to use insulin properly. Some boba teas have even more added sugar in toppings or sweetened milk. Most boba teas contain brown sugar, tapioca pearls soaked in sugar syrup, or jellies with added sugar. Unless expressly specified, boba teas raise blood sugar significantly. With some modifications, people with diabetes can enjoy boba as part of a healthy lifestyle. The added sugar in the milk tea and toppings means boba can have more grams of sugar than a typical soda. My family all love boba so we can go through a 2lb bag within a couple of weeks.Boba tea typically has large amounts of sugar. Def don’t recommend saving boba, they’re best used the same day they’re cooked. And the straws are cheap on Amazon, but I use these glass cups with wooden lids that come with glass/metal boba sized straws that I absolutely love for my boba drinks (also found on Amazon, came in a set of 4, and I’ve got several of these sets). ![]() I use a blender bottle or milk frother to make the flavored boba tea. They sell the various drink powder and flavored syrup at the Asian markets nearby, but they’re also on Amazon too (syrup is better imo, as you can add it to the tea until you get the flavor you like). I like Thai tea so I make a ton using the actual leaves so I can add however much condensed milk to get the flavor I want, but the instant version by DeDe is good too. Just get the regular black quick cooking boba and make sure to add brown sugar once they’re done cooking and cooled under cold water (you want the boba to soak in a sugar syrup after cooking). Tbh it’s super easy to make boba at home. Please note: Moderators can remove posts/threads as they see fit outside of the above rules.
