My Story & Expertise
I’m Kathy W. Helms, the creative mixologist, photographer, and chief taste-tester behind every beautiful beverage on Sippy Boba. I’m based in California, where my kitchen counter frequently doubles as a drink lab.
Sippy Boba was born in 2021 out of my obsession with recreating high-end café quality drinks at home. I was fascinated by the complexity of flavor in my favorite drinks—especially bubble tea—and frustrated by the lack of reliable, scalable recipes. I started this blog with a simple goal: to demystify the art of the perfect sip.
My expertise is rooted in experimentation, precision, and presentation.
My Dedication to Quality:
I take recipe development seriously—even for drinks. Before any recipe is published, you can be confident that I have already:
- Tested the Ratio Meticulously: Each recipe is calibrated multiple times to achieve the perfect balance of sweetness, strength, and flavor.
- Focused on Technique: I break down seemingly complex steps (like cooking boba or frothing milk) into easy-to-follow tutorials.
- Prioritized Ingredients: I source and recommend the best ingredients and equipment, ensuring you get café-quality results at home.
This commitment to clarity and flavor accuracy is why Sippy Boba is a trusted source for making your favorite beverages from scratch.
My Journey to Sippy Boba
What started as a fun, creative outlet to share my obsession with bubble tea soon grew into a passion for exploring all corners of the beverage world. I launched Sippy Boba to provide a fun, engaging, and highly reliable resource for drink lovers everywhere.
Since launching, I have personally:
- Developed, tested, and photographed hundreds of refreshing drink recipes.
- Built a highly engaged community focused on beverage enjoyment and home brewing.
- Committed myself to helping others save money and master their favorite drinks at home.
I hope every recipe you find here inspires you to grab a shaker, measure your ingredients, and enjoy the perfect sip!
