Hey everyone, it’s Catherine!!! So today I will be talking about a recipe for Bubble teas. It’s one of my all-time favorite drinks, I hope you’ll like it!!!

                    ----------------------------------------

𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕠𝕟𝕒𝕝 𝕠𝕡𝕚𝕟𝕚𝕠𝕟𝕤:

✰I know that it is a very hard time now, during COVID-19, and we can’t go outside when we want to buy stuff. So I think it’s very interesting and cool to share with you guys some really easy recipes with very “friendly” ingredients, by which I mean, food that you can usually find at home. 


✰Food makes people happy, well at least for me, my sister and my friends. Making delicious foods and snacks, during quarantine, really encourages us to stay positive. So during quarantine, to encourage us (or just because I’m greedy), we need to make delicious food/snacks!

                    ----------------------------------------

 

 ℝ𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕠𝕟𝕤 𝕀 𝕔𝕙𝕠𝕤𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕤 𝕣𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕡𝕖:

I chose it because I’m pretty sure that you’re going to like it, cause most people would like bubble tea.


✰“friendly” ingredients

 

✰ Love the process of doing it, and the time to drink it!!!

                    ----------------------------------------


𝕄𝕒𝕜𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕤 𝕣𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕡𝕖…

✰Of course, it makes me feel very happy, it’s one of my favourite drinks. 


✰My family really enjoys this, we like spending time together & drink it at the same time.


Saves time by not having to spend a lot of time finding a good bubble tea store! A good bubble tea store is pretty rare.

                    ----------------------------------------

 ℍ𝕖𝕣𝕖 𝕚𝕤 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕣𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕡𝕖!!!:

I don’t really measure the quantity, I just put the amount that I think will be good. So the quantity that I’m going to say is the portion that I put in, it’s not exact, you can always modify it.

  

⇛For the drink⇚

 

INGREDIENTS:

 

✰Black tea

✰Milk

 

1. Just make some black tea, a bag for like 1L,and a tablespoon & a teaspoon for the same quantity. We don’t need it to be a very strong tea.

 

2. Next,  put it in a pot, it has a richer taste when you heat it. And just add milk (cold or hot, doesn’t matter), when it becomes brown, like light brown, stop adding.

 

And that’s it! 

If you try it now, it would be disgusting, cause there is no sugar, so add the amount that you like (of white sugar), I don’t measure it, cause everyone has a different preference. 

Or you could wait until the end.

                                        ----------------------------------------

⇛For the boba⇚

So for this one, I’m not sure if you have boba at home. It's okay if you don’t have them, just make the drink. Without boba it becomes a “chai”!

 

 

INGREDIENTS:

 

✰Arrowroot flour/rice flour

✰Brown sugar/black sugar (in piece or powder)

 

It doesn’t really matter if you do the chai or the bobas first, but I would suggest you make the chai first, to let it cool down while you’re doing the bobas.

 

1. So first, you need to put the sugar in a pot, then melt it with some water in (like 440 ml). I use pieces of sugar, so about a 3x3x3 Rubik’s cube in all.

 

2. When it’s completely melted, add it to the flour, it makes a dough (maybe there is some left of the sugar liquid, we’re going to use it). Mix, and when it holds together, “play with it”.

 

3. Just (with the dough), make little balls (mine were of 10-11mm). The more flour that you use, the more bobas you can make. 

 

4. Succeeding, boil water in the pot, and add the little balls, wait until it becomes a little bit like jello.

 

5. When it’s done, let it cool down in a bowl filled with cold water.

 

6. Following, if you have some sugar-liquid leftover, add some bubble tea in it, and heat it. If you don’t have any left, melt with three or four 1x1x1 cubes of sugar, and use bubble tea instead of water. Add the bobas, it makes them a sweet taste.

 

Taaa daaa, it’s done!

 

⇛Final step⇚

 

If you have already added sugar (white sugar) to the chai, add only the bobas. If not, add the boba that came with the sugar-liquid, and if you think it’s not sweet enough, add more sugar.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 

EXTRA RECIPE:


So if you really want the boba, I found some recipes to make Rice flour. 


-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSNSLXN3mdg To make rice flour,  you’ll need rice. Wash the rice, let it dry completely, and put it in water for like 2-3hours that it gets softer. Grind it until it gets a flour touch.

 

Conclusion: Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed the recipe and find out how easy it is to make bubble tea. It is absolutely delicious! Now go make some for yourself and share it with whoever you are quarantined with.

Plantation of Coral Reefs - Jeremy

     Hi, last time, I wrote about animals in cities, but today I'm going to talk about the ecosystem...underwater. For those who don't know, corals are alive. Maybe many of you think corals are only expensive colourful rocks, well, no. Actually, corals are dying because of global warming and over-fishing.  Here is a picture to compare what coral reefs look like in nature, before and after this massacre:  On the left, the corals is living great with colours, but on the right, the corals had already shown their skeletons, and all is white. Some biologists have started to plant coral babies, with an adult's egg and sperm that they release annually. Allow me to explain this process step by step. Method 1: Firstly, the reefs in need will be cut by local gardeners (or by the coral itself when they break). Then, these fragments will be glued  onto the healthy or living corals. Biologists use a special glue made from a mixture of see water and salt. Finally, it wil...

Show Review: Riverdale - Jiahe

My favourite TV show is called Riverdale. It is a Netflix series based on characters from the Archie comics. Right now there are already 4 seasons and season 5 will start in January 2021. The name of the show Riverdale is actually the name of the small town where the story happens. The story begins one night, when They find the dead body of Jason Blossom, and the main characters try to solve this mystery. This is how they found out about the dark story of their town and their own past. After that night, can they still trust each other? Because we never know who the people around us are hiding. I really like this series because there is a lot of suspense and it is unpredictable. Also I like to guess what will happen. I think my favorite character in Riverdale is Betty Cooper because she is very smart and has the darkest past.     --Jiahe

Video Game Summary: PUBG - Tingwei

Did ever hear about the game called PUBG? If not, you are going to hear about it now! This game is a basic battle royal game, but it has a lot more game mods. I really like this game because it’s fun. I played this game with my friends and after that, I became a PUBG lover. I will explain why.   First, the most attractive thing about PUBG is the wide game mods it has. The battle royal is the most liked, this mod is a 100 players on a map or a battleground. The players could choose to play alone, duo or in a squad. In the battle royal mode, each player has to survive as long as possible. However, the game PUBG is not only a survival game but also a gun fighting game. Players have to find weapons after landing from an airplane. The map is very large, and it can be difficult to find other players. So the makers of the game added a thing called the blue zone. The blue zone is created to confine the players into a smaller battle zone every 1-4 minutes by taking off there health whe...
