Strawberry Milk Tea

1. Combine the honey and 240g water in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat and stir until the honey is dissolved. Turn off the heat, add the tea bags and steep for 10 minutes.
2. Remove the tea bags and add the strawberries and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and allow the mixture to bubble, stirring and swirling occasionally, until the strawberries are broken down and the mixture is syrupy, 15 to 20 minutes. Strain and discard the solids, then refrigerate the syrup until ready to serve.
3. Reconstitute the boba pearls according to the package directions (see Cook's Note), then drain and let cool for a couple of minutes. Put a few spoonfuls of boba at the bottom of each glass. Pour in 60ml of the chilled syrup and then top with the milk. Mix and serve with a big straw.

Cook’s Note

You can make the syrup well in advance, but do not reconstitute the boba until right before you are going to drink the milk tea (they will congeal together into a big mass).
