How to Make It
1. Step
Make the strawberry purée: Add the strawberries and sugar to a medium bowl. Use the back of a fork to muddle the strawberries. Let sit for 10–15 minutes, until the strawberries begin to soften and release their natural juices.
2. Step
Make the matcha: Add the matcha powder to a mug and slowly pour in the hot water. Whisk with a small whisk or a matcha whisk until tiny bubbles form on the surface.
3. Step
To assemble, add the boba pearls and brown sugar syrup to the bottom of a serving glass. Top with the muddled strawberries, then the ice. Slowly pour in the half-and-half over the back of a spoon for a layered effect, then use the same technique to pour the matcha on top.
