1. Start by cooking the tapioca pearls according to the package instructions. Rinse them with cold water and set them aside.

3. In a separate pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil and add the tea bags. Allow the tea to steep for about 5 minutes, then remove the tea bags and cool.
4. To assemble drink, in each serving glass or mason jar, add about 2 Tbls of the raspberry puree. Top with a bit of the passion fruit pulp.
5. Pour the tea over the puree, leaving some space at the top of the glass. Top up with some passion fruit juice and tonic water.
6. Add a few Tbls of cooked tapioca pearls to each glass.
7. Fill the glasses with crushed ice. Garnish with edible flowers.
8. Serve with extra-wide straws in the glasses, give the drink a gentle stir, and sip. Enjoy!
