Ingredients
For Bubble Coffee
Instructions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the warm milk with the halva.
Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture while keeping the blades near the surface. This will create a dense and fluffy foam.
Step 2
If you decide to use tapioca, cook it according to package instructions until they are soft and chewy.
Once done, allow them to cool before adding them to the drink.
Step 3
In a glass, place the optional cooled tapioca pearls at the bottom.
Slowly pour the halva milk mixture over the tapioca, filling the glass appropriately.
Then, gently pour the freshly brewed coffee on top in a thin stream to create layers.
Step 4
Serve your bubble coffee immediately! Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and the fun texture of tapioca.

Faq
- Can I use instant coffee in this recipe?
While fresh-brewed coffee is best for flavor, instant coffee can work in a pinch. Just dissolve it in hot water, and you’re good to go!
- How do I know if my milk is warm enough?
The milk should feel warm to the touch but not boiling. Aim for around 150°F (65°C) for best results.
- Can I make this drink ahead of time?
It's best enjoyed fresh, but you can prepare the milk and halva mixture in advance. Just give it a quick re-whip before serving!
- What can I substitute for halva if I can’t find it?
You can use almond butter or tahini for a similar nutty flavor, but it won't replicate the exact texture of halva.
- How can I make the tapioca pearls more flavorful?
Try cooking the tapioca pearls in sweetened coconut milk or coffee for a delicious twist!
- What is the best way to store leftover bubble coffee?
It’s best to consume it right away, but you can refrigerate the mixture without the coffee for a day or two. Just stir well before serving!
