WuFuYuanBoba Tapioca Pearls, Black Sugar Flavor, Ready to Cook in 5 Minutes or Microwave in 3 Minutes, 8.8 oz. (3 Packs)

I remember having to boil boba pearls whenever I wanted some, so I'm glad there's now a quick microwave option! I usually cook mine for about 5 or so mins to get the level of chewiness I like (plus it's better to overcook boba than to undercook).Also, a couple of the comments were saying the flavor wasn't what they were expecting because they're expecting the boba shop tapioca pearls right out the bag. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO ADD SUGAR (or brown sugar syrup) after cooking! It even says so on the instructions! A tip is that adding more sugar than you think you'll need will make it taste more like the boba shop pearls. Overall though, the product is good and well worth the money. Like, 10 bucks for 3 bags? It's a steal

The best boba I have gotten. Just like the bubble tea chains. And the easiest to make.

Very good taste and texture

WuFuYuan boba packages are by far the most convenient way to make tasty homemade boba tea at home. The quick-cooking makes them more likely to turn out right (not too hard or too soft), and it's so much cheaper than buying individual drinks at stores. All my local Asian groceries stopped selling these except for one store, and when this item (3-pack) is on sale, the price is comparable to in-store, so I might as well save on gas and get it delivered to my house. I pair it with milk tea prepared from Greenmax Boba Milk Tea Powder (I mix in more than the suggested amount for more flavor/sweetness) which is also available on Amazon, though I get mine in-store as that's noticeably cheaper there.Because I'm lazy and like 1 drink per day, I batch cook all 3 packages one right after the other, and store all the boba, mixed with a good amount of honey, in one tall, circular plastic food container in the refrigerator. Taking the container out of the fridge after it's cooled, all the boba will be stuck together like crazy. I use a spoon to forcefully break off a big chunk of boba, drop it in the bottom of a glass, microwave for about 40 seconds, and then pour cold milk tea on top. I take a big straw, stick it in the boba chunk, and shake it wildly until the boba have all detached from each other and are floating freely again. It's important to cook the boba in a large amount of water such that they won't be too sticky/starchy to separate after microwaving and shaking. I once tried to cook all 3 packages at once in a small pot with not enough water, and let's just say I don't think a hurricane could have separated the boba at that point.One thing to watch out for is that occasionally the packages can get some moisture inside them. They do not have dry/absorbent packs inside. So if you start seeing small water droplets forming, normally on the back side of the package, it's probably time to quickly cook that package, as I doubt the boba will be good for much longer in the presence of moisture.

Was ok but not what I expected.

These don't have much flavor, but they are a tasty addition to the pearl drinks I make my daughter. Be it tea or tarot or some other fruit, they complement it nicely. They're simple to prepare once you get the hang of it. I use hot water and a microwave to expedite the process. Otherwise, you have to take some extra time at the stovetop. The are the best quality black tapioca pearls I've used thus far.~ Kort

Get it! It is so much more affordable than going to the tea shop! And super simple. You really can't go wrong. And if you overcook it guess what? It doesn't really matter. I cook it anywhere from 4 to 8 minutes and it always is great.Just something about Boba being in the tea that makes it 10 times better. Sometimes I add a little mango or peach flavoring and it's just like I walked out of the tea shop, except I get a whole huge tea for less than a dollar. Can't beat that! With three bags, it lasts me a whole month, and there's three of us in our family that drink it.

Super easy, yummy, and super great value to make your own boba drinks!!
