Milk tea is not only a national favorite drink but also a refreshment that helps many businesses succeed. However, to brew delicious milk tea that meets shop standards, you need to master the milk tea recipe as well as the secrets of balancing ingredients.

In this article, Wecha will share a detailed guide on making milk tea in 3 sizes (M – L – XL) with golden boba, suitable for both enjoying at home and applying to your own shop.
 

1. Preparing ingredients for delicious milk tea

To achieve the correct milk tea flavor, high-quality ingredients are the most important factor. You need to prepare:

• Royal's Milk Powder: 350g (helps create a smooth, creamy taste)

• Royal's Whey Powder: 20g (increases protein content, making the milk tea smoother)

• Ceylon Tea or Wecha Assam Espresso: 90g (can be replaced with Roasted Oolong or Jasmine Oolong to vary the flavor)

• Boiling water 100°C

• Granulated sugar (dissolved into sugar syrup for easy mixing)

• Clean tube ice

The fresher the ingredients, the more delicious the milk tea and the longer it retains its flavor.

2. How to make a smooth and creamy milk base

This is a crucial step in the delicious milk tea recipe, determining the richness without being overwhelming.

• Add 350g milk powder + 20g whey powder into a large bowl.

• Slowly pour in 1000ml boiling water, stirring well until completely dissolved.

• Add 480g tube ice, stirring gently to cool down quickly.

Result: You will obtain approximately 1.2 liters of chilled milk base, ready to be used for mixing milk tea.

3. How to brew bold, shop-standard tea

Tea is the soul of the delicious milk tea making process; if brewed at the wrong time or temperature, the flavor will change significantly.

• Measure 90g of Ceylon or Assam espresso tea.

• Pour in 1500ml boiling water (100°C).

• Steep for exactly 10 minutes, then strain to remove the tea leaves.

Result: You will obtain 1.5 liters of bold tea concentrate, with an amber red-brown color.

Note: Do not steep for too long, as the tea will become harsh and bitter, losing its sweet aftertaste.

4. How to mix milk tea for 3 sizes: M – L – XL

This is the part most people are interested in when looking for shop-standard milk tea mixing methods. Depending on the cup volume, adjust the ingredients according to the following formula:
