Flavfar Premium Instant Taro Milk Tea Kit with Authentic Brown Sugar Tapioca Boba and Straws | Ready in Just 25 Seconds | Perfect for Home, Parties, and Gift Giving - 5 Servings

I want to start off by saying the guy that’s pissed the boba doesn’t “pop” is an idiot. There are lots of different types of bubbles in boba tea. The ones that pop are not the default. Tapioca balls are. This is the normal boba you get a tea shop if you’re not paying any up-charges. The only difference is that these boba are mixed w brownsugar (i assume to preserve them) which makes this a LOT sweeter and just general more rich. I like my taro tea warm which makes the brownsugar boba really add to the “warm soothing creamy dessert drink” thing I was going for. I also felt like the powder was watery on its own so I used oatmilk as a base but that was VERY rich. I liked it but it’s one of those things you probably wouldn’t like if you weren’t hungry with a major sweet tooth. You’re probably just supposed to use two packs in one drink or something. Finally, do NOT microwave the boba. It’ll be a gamble wether they come out perfect or hard as rocks. Heat a pot of water to a ROLLING boil. It’ll take a minute but it needs to be really boiling. Then place the pack of boba (unopened) in for 1-2 minutes and scoop it out w some tongs. I usually tend towards 2 minutes bc it’s better to cook it a little too long then not enough. If you do it that way the boba will come out perfect every time. The boba that comes with this pack is especially “desserty”. I highly recommend trying this warm at least once. Especially now that it’s winter. It’s really great.

tastes great but i had to wait 1 minute after adding boba to hot water so it is soft enough

These were good. The boba was really sweet but that’s expected. And the taro was good. I didn’t really know how to make it good so it didn’t taste amazing but it was okay. It also comes with paper boba straws.

Easy and delish

I purchased this with the intention of giving it as a gift, and while the product itself seems fine, I was honestly disappointed with how it was packaged. It arrived in a plain, powdered-style bag that didn’t look very appealing or festive. For something meant to be given to someone else, the first impression really matters, and this just didn’t feel like something you’d be excited to receive. It felt more like a refill bag or something you’d expect for a personal purchase rather than a present. Inside the packaging, everything was included just as described, so it’s not lacking in terms of content. If you’re buying it for yourself, then the bag probably won’t be an issue at all, and it serves its purpose just fine. The materials are all there, and it seems like it would work well for what it’s intended. But as a gift, it definitely fell short of expectations. A box or even a sturdier, more polished presentation would have made it feel much more special and appropriate for gifting. I still gave it to the person I bought it for, but I ended up wrapping it in a separate container just to make it feel a little nicer. Packaging might seem like a small thing, but in cases like this, it really affects the overall experience. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s something to keep in mind if you’re planning to give this to someone.

This flavor and brand are my granddaughter and mine favorite. I can hardly wait to the weekend so me and her can enjoy it when I go to her house.

I rarely leave product reviews, but I was really disappointed by the Taro mix. It tasted like Trix cereal milk, but even that was a faint flavor. It was so disappointing that I ended up throwing away the other four flavor packs. The boba itself was all stuck together and not solid, I'm going to give the boba part another shot, but I'll likely end up throwing that away too. tldr: taro mix didn't taste at all like taro and was faint. Boba was not solid.

I bought this gift with glass cups and straws as a white elephant gift. The gift was stolen many times. The flavor is great and it easy to make. Will say that wish there was more but for the price I am happy.

Omg I love it, the taste is amazing so happy . I will for sure order more and try the other kinds

This is all instant and delicious. We prepared the boba in boiling water (more success than in the microwave). So we boiled water, cooked the boba, and made the Taro all in one. We would then leave it in the fridge/freezer for a bit to cool it down. My kiddo is 10 and loves the flavour!

Great taste easy to make

The boba was so tasty, we loved it but the tea itself we didn't love. It kinda tasted like fruity peddles and captain crunch cereal. Too sweet for me but that didn't stop my daughter from enjoying it.

Delicious! Easy to prepare. Comes with the perfect sized straws.
