Boba Tea Ingredient Swaps For A Healthier Drink

By Yash Lakhan

Chia Seeds For Tapioca Pearls

To add fiber
omega-3s
and a comparable chewy texture with fewer carbohydrates
replace the boba with chia seeds.

Honey Or Maple Syrup For Sugar

To get a more nutritious sweetness
swap out sugary syrups with natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup.

Almond Or Oat Milk For Dairy Milk

If you want plant-based milk that is lower in fat and calories
go for almond or oat milk instead of whole milk.

Fresh Fruit Puree For Fruit Syrups

For a more natural and wholesome taste
blend fresh fruit
such as mangoes or strawberries
rather than using artificial syrups.

Herbal Or Green Tea For Sweetened Teas

For a foundation that is higher in antioxidants and lower in calories
choose unsweetened herbal or green tea.
