  1. Anyone know if this can be done? I have made bubble tea in the past,
    but tried putting alcohol into the drink itself. The trouble with
    this is instead of an alcoholic variation of a bubble tea you get a
    cocktail with tapioca balls in it.

    Btw if anyone is interested I have tried making these drinks with rum
    or Bailey's, both work, depending on if you go with a chocolate/milk
    tasting vs a fruity taste (rum works better for this).

    One thing I've been thinking about trying is getting the alcohol in
    the balls. I think this would make it a whole lot easier to make the
    drink alcoholic without completely changing the taste of the tea
    itself.

    I buy the tapioca balls (don't make them from scratch). Would there
    be a way to 'inject' alcohol into them?

    Any thoughts?

    Buy large tapioca pearls and rehydrate them with alcohol.

    Yes, I have one. Why in hell do you want to do this?
