For a richer flavor, use full-fat milk or add a splash of cream. Experiment with different tea flavors like green tea, black tea, or fruit-infused teas. Adjust the amount of sweetener to your preference. You can also use flavored syrups for a fun twist. If you can't find chai tea mix, brew a strong batch of chai tea and let it cool completely before using. Store leftover tapioca pearls in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. They may harden slightly, but can be softened by microwaving for a few seconds.
