Bring 600 ml of water to a boil and cook the black tapioca pearls in it for 3 minutes. They are ready when they start to float to the surface. Drain and rinse cold under running water to prevent them from sticking.
Make a sugar syrup by heating the brown sugar, granulated white sugar and 4 tablespoons of water over low heat for a few minutes. Leave the sugar syrup to cool.
Bring another 600 ml of water to just below boiling point, add the black tea leaves and leave to infuse gently for a few minutes. Turn off the heat, add 600 ml of milk and allow to cool so that the tea flavour is fully absorbed.
Strain the milk and tea mixture to remove any loose tea.
Divide the black tapioca pearls between 3 large glasses and then add 1 tablespoon of sugar syrup to each glass.
Pour the flavoured milk over the tapioca pearls and serve the bubble tea cold, with a wide straw. You can add ice cubes if you like. Enjoy!
