Bubble tea is a true treat for the senses. In addition to the lush creaminess and rich aromatics of refreshing milk tea, you also get to indulge in the satisfying chewiness of boba with every sip. As luck would have it, it’s a sensational experience that happens to translate quite faithfully into a dessert context, and even more so into a vegan dessert context — which is exactly what you’ll find in every pint of the new Retail Brand (private brand) Trader Joe’s Black Tea and Boba Coconut Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert. Made for the retailer by the same supplier as their celebrated Cold Brew Coffee and Boba Frozen Dessert, this cool, creamy treat keeps the same coconut milk base and tapioca pearls of its predecessor, but swaps out the coffee for bold, bracing Assam black tea and adds in a swirl of rich brown sugar for good measure.
Enjoy this vegan Black Tea and Boba Frozen Dessert anytime you would a non-frozen milk tea — as a source of refreshing sweetness on a hot day, as something fun to share while catching up with a friend, or as a reward to yourself while working on a project, for example. Its full-bodied flavor and boba-powered pops of texture are delightful enough on their own and if you want to add some crunch into the mix, it scoops especially well into a sugar or waffle cone.
