With bubble tea being super popular these days, one individual came up with the idea to make rice from boba. Yes, including the pearls.
'Ochazuke' is a wholesome Japanese dish made by pouring green tea over leftover rice.
According to Just One Cookbook, it is common to make Ochazuke when you feel under the weather or after a long day of work, as the green tea makes you feel warm and fuzzy after eating.

One man in Japan had this theory that since green tea over rice tastes so appetising, bubble tea with rice should also taste good
Mr Sato set out to test his theory, which he wrote about on SoraNews24.
Since Mr Sato was the first person to attempt to make bubble tea rice, he wasn't sure how much of each ingredient to use. He finally settled on one cup of rice and one medium-sized milk tea.
After 15 minutes, the rice was done cooking.

According to him, the rice and boba really complemented each other
"Rice and tea really do seem destined to go well with each other, and their flavors blended effortlessly together here.
As a matter of fact, they're so compatible that the stronger flavor here remains that of the rice itself, though each and every tapioca bubble is a sweet surprise with an interesting texture change," Mr Sato shared on SoraNews24.
