Dirty Boba Bayou Loaded Tea

By Recipes by Lex Published on

If you’re looking for a fun and refreshing twist on loaded teas, this Dirty Boba Bayou is the perfect drink to try. With its gorgeous layered look, bursting flavors, and chewy strawberry popping pearls, it’s as much of a treat for your eyes as it is for your taste buds. I’ve been completely obsessed with making boba-style loaded teas lately, and this one has quickly become a favorite. Not only is it beautiful, but it’s also super easy to put together with just a few simple ingredients.

Starting with a base of strawberry popping pearls and sparkling Sprite Zero, this drink gets its bold flavor from the Kajun Blue Bayou loaded tea mix. After mixing it up with a splash of water, you’ll pour it over ice and watch the magic happen as the layers settle into a striking red and blue gradient. It’s fizzy, fruity, and absolutely delicious. Trust me—once you try this Dirty Boba Bayou, you’ll be just as hooked as I am!
