Directions
Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Add 1/3 cup large tapioca pearls, partially cover and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the pearls are translucent, about 40 minutes. Stir in 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk, 2 tablespoons sugar and a pinch of salt until dissolved. Transfer to a bowl and add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Let cool, then cover and chill at least 2 hours. Top with diced mango and drizzle with mango nectar.

Mine came out like soup. Was it supposed to be that way? I double checked all quantities, and my measurements were good. Ive never made tapioca so I wasn't sure what to expect as it was cooking. It was tasty though. Just sweet tasty soup.

I just had small pearl tapioca and went for it anyway. It didn't come out anywhere near sweet enough, so I added more sugar and some jam.
What I ended up with was good anyway, it wasn't a wreck. But I would recommend using the large pearl tapioca - in mine, you really don't end up with actual tapioca pearls. And maybe the sweetness would balance out with the right product.
