Bubble Juice

Bubble juice is so much fun my daughter loves this especially when she is not feeling well.   1 cup organic small Tapioca pearls Bottle of Juice.   Really large straw Directions: Cook tapioca according to directions. Let cool and rinse thoroughly.  In a tall clear glass put two tablespoons of tapioca and favorite Juice.  We like pomegranate and juices that are a blend of fruit and veggies. You should be able to make six to eight glasses.  Add large straw so that they get pearls with every sip. Green   Shellfish Pink  Gluten Yellow  Nuts Blue   Soy Purple  Milk Red  Eggs Orange  Fish
