💡Tips for Making Strawberry Jelly Milk Drink
Use clear, square PET bottles
To begin with, these bottles offer a clean and professional look. They also highlight the beautiful layers of the drink, making them ideal for selling or gifting.
Cook the tapioca pearls properly
First, make sure the water is fully boiling before adding the tapioca pearls. After cooking, rinse and soak them in cold water to stop further cooking. Then, toss them in sugar syrup to help maintain their sweetness and chewy texture.
Let the jelly cool slightly before bottling
Once the jelly mixture begins to boil, turn off the heat. Next, allow it to cool for around three minutes. This step is essential because it prevents the hot jelly from damaging or warping the PET bottles.
Layer the ingredients carefully
In order to create a neat and eye-catching drink, always follow this order: jelly at the bottom, followed by tapioca pearls, a spoonful of strawberry jam, and finally the milk mixture. This method enhances the visual appeal, making it perfect for photos and social media.
Use a wide straw when serving
Since the jelly and pearls are part of the drink, a wide straw makes it easier to enjoy all the textures in one sip. Simply punch the straw through the jelly and enjoy each layer.
Store and serve properly
Finally, refrigerate the bottled drink and consume it within three days for the best taste and freshness. If you notice any separation, just shake the bottle gently before serving.
