This is the CUTEST book I've ever read in my life! I love boba and having this book is a dream come true! I love the cute art throughout the book, as well as the introduction to where boba originated from. I love that it has a recipe to make your own tapioca balls, how great! I will definitely be purchasing this book once it's available and recommending it to everyone I know!
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me early access to this book.
First up a big thank you to the publisher/Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Sadly, this book isn't for me. It was cute, I loved the illustrations, but I just had expected a bit more simplicity. Now you really had to make all the syrups, the bobba, the jams, whatever else yourself. I thought we would get some recipes on things, but that other than that it was just using whatever your store has available. I am just not going to make syrups or jams that will expire in a week, I would only use it for the bubble tea, and that seems a bit of a waste.
But again, it was cute, I did like some things, and I am sure that this book will be perfect for someone REALLY dedicated to drinking endless cups of bubble tea, haha.
The recipes in this book as well as the cute illustrations are what really make this book fun and interactive. I enjoy how the recipes are easy to follow and how simple it is to prepare. The steps are broken down into manageable and easy to understand words that even a child (with adult supervision) can help make these fun drinks. What really stood out to me is the fact that the authors made the sweetness of the recipes easy to customize to your sweet tolerance levels. This is a cookbook that has whimsical aspects and adds a dash of cuteness to what would have been a boring cookbook.
This book is super adorable! The kawaii aesthetics make something complex and make it seem easier and less stressful. I loved learning about Boba as well s milk Tea. The book talks you through syrups and other extras needed to make the tea. This is the perfect book for someone who wants to make their own!
This is an adorable yet informative book about boba! I love the different recipes and I cannot wait to try them all. So wonderful! Would be an excellent gift for any bubble tea lover.
What a gem! I have newly discovered a love for boba (I know, I know, late to the game!) and this book was a pure joy to flip through! I loved learning about the basics and history of boba! Absolutely adorable illustrations throughout!! I have saved several recipes and can’t wait to give them a try! Highly recommend to boba, tea, or simply yummy drink fans!
This is an extensive how-to guide on all things bubble tea!
Kwong and del Mundo take their time teaching you how to make everything from the boba to the teas to the toppings with easy to follow recipes and adorable illustrations.
I'm usually one to skip the 10 pages of backstory to a recipe, but they kept their stories short, sweet, relevant, and entertaining.
I'd recommend this to any fellow bubble tea lover looking to branch out and not pay a billion dollars for their favourite drink!
Yum Yum yum!! What a cute recipe book! Easy to follow, I can't wait to make some of these recipes!!!
This bubble tea cookbook is written by "two average Asian American women". The colors and art is so cute. My 14 year old loves bubble tea, so I had her participate in making some of the recipes. The book explained the history if Boba. What you need to make boba. Brewing instructions that were concise and easy to follow. My daughter made a few of the recipes and enjoyed it. Perfect for your Boba Loving Teen!
Kawaii Cafe' Bubble Tea is a treat for anyone who loves bubble tea or just tea in general.
I was happy that the authors included a detailed list of everything I might want to add to my bubble tea and the equipment needed to brew the best quality teas. This makes it so easy to make a list to have everything you'll need and not keep going back for more.
I've tried to create my own bubble tea and the flavors just weren't great, but the recipes included in this cookbook all look amazing. I haven't tried all of them, but I made a few of the milk teas and they were incredible. My daughter is a huge fan of the Baby Bug - strawberry and watermelon refresher.
I appreciated the history of boba, how to make the simple syrups, and well, just everything about this book. I already plan to gift a few copies to my bubble tea loving family members when the book comes out.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for this ARC. All opinions are my own.

This recipe book was so cute! I love that it had unique recipes and that it was both informative and easy to understand.
What really drew me in were the adorable illustrations! They were precious and I enjoyed that the design style, illustrations, and color scheme were consistent throughout the book.
I LOOVEE bubble-tea with my whole heart and soul but lets face it they ain't cheap and even when u make them at home without proper recipe they turn out horrendous and make u doubt your cooking skills. That's why when I picked this book, I didn't have any second thoughts regarding it. The theme of the book seems anime-inspired which is so cute my eyes ended up sweating lol. What's really interesting is they take you through the very basics and includes all these cute and tiny and fun drawings that just keep you looking. The steps written are very clear and do not leave scopes for any kind of mistakes. I easily finished this in 15mins and cant wait to try them at home. Its so perfect that I'd love to own a physical copy once its out to add to my cookbooks..
This is the CUTEST little recipe book! I love the graphics and the format of the book. I LOVE all things Kawaii and Boba and this book did not disappoint! I now have a treasure trove of easy to make recipes that I can reference at home. Thank you for the gifted e-copy in exchange for my honest opinion.
A book full of cute art and perfect for boba lovers. There are many creative recipes with steps that can be easily followed. Tried some recipes and they are very good! I would recommend the book to any tea lover (or pretty drink lover).
Beautiful cover! This whole book is pleasing to the eye. The color and the artwork are not only kawaii but lovely as well. The aesthetics are great and so are the recipes! It was an informative read! (Cute and yummy too!)
Very handy and informative book on all things Boba. Easy read with engaging pictures in a lighthearted fun style. The book would make a great gift for teen or really anyone who has been wondering about Boba. I had my first Boba this year and I’m hooked. Lovely book and very informative.
I am now a self-proclaimed bubble tea connoisseur~ And it's all thanks to this cookbook!
Need a recipe for a fruit tea using homemade jam? We've got you. Need a recipe for homemade almond jellies to top off your boba? Say no more! Need a recipe using store bought ingredients to make a quick and easy boba? You've come to the right place!
This cookbook simplifies the bubble-tea making process so that anyone may create delicious and adorable drinks at home, no matter what ingredients you may have on hand! Everything is adaptable~
I absolutely adored the different bubble tea drawings, especially with the little animal designs, and I would definitely love to own this book personally for future reference. As a bubble tea lover this is a must-have item!

Informative guide to making boba tea at home. Recipes to make everything from scratch such as your own fresh boba pearls, syrups, fruit jams, non dairy options & toppings as well as best ways to brew tea & lots of tasty recipes for fruit teas, milk teas, slushies etc. Illustrations are cute & recipes easy to follow, with plenty of information on the history of bubble tea. Would definitely appeal to anyone who loves bubble tea & would like to try making it at home.
If you’re a tea lover, you’ll probably enjoy this cookbook. It’s super easy to follow, and with the way it’s broken down, many of the elements could be used to make things other than tea as well. Also, the pictures are very cute, and fun to look at.
Thanks to NetGalley for the eArc.
