FRESH ALOHA SMOOTHIE

Tapioca pearls are made from tapioca starch, which is derived from the cassava root. It’s an ingredient commonly used in Asian desserts and drinks. They have a chewy texture and little to no flavor on their own. Also referred to as boba, these can be found in most Asian markets or ordered online. Be sure to buy the special, extra-large bubble tea straws too!


I added some pearls to our smoothies, but it’s totally optional, as it only adds to the texture, not taste
