How to Make Fruity Tapioca

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup tapioca pearls, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 cup chopped rhubarb, and 4 cups water.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the tapioca pearls are translucent and the rhubarb is tender. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  5. Gently stir in 1 cup crushed pineapple (including its juice).
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the tapioca to fully absorb the liquid.
  7. Serve chilled. Top with whipped cream, a sprinkle of toasted coconut, or enjoy it as is!
