Grapefruit Green Tea Granita Bubble Tea Recipe
240 mins prepServes 4
This grapefruit green tea granita is a combination of two of my favorite desserts - classic Italian granita and bubble tea! The combination of the deliciously fruity taste, icy texture, and chewy boba pearls make it so fun and refreshing to eat!
0 Place the jasmine green tea leaves in a tea pot or small heat-proof bowl.
1 In a pot over medium heat, combine water and sugar, and bring to a boil. Once the sugar has fully dissolved pour the simple syrup over the tea leaves. Steep for 5 minutes.
2 In a freezer-safe container, combine Tropicana Red Ruby Grapefruit Juice and tea. Cover then place in the freezer for one hour or until ice crystals form on top.
3 Using a fork, scrape the ice crystals. Then place the container back into the freezer.
4 Repeat until the granita is light and fluffy.
5 Cook the tapioca pearls according to the package instructions. Strain then rinse under cold water. Transfer the tapioca pearls into a bowl and mix in the simple syrup.
6 To assemble, place a few spoonfuls of the tapioca pearls in a serving bowl or cup. Top with a generous amount of granita. Garnish with fresh mint and enjoy!
