What is a Loaded Tea?
A Loaded Tea is a vibrantly 🌈 colored tea energy drink, made with an herbal tea, an ✨ energy booster 🚀 with a range of B vitamins, sugar free drink mixes for flavor and color combinations, water and 🧊 ice. Optional aloe vera and/or collagen can be added for potential health benefits.
Often referred to as a Vitamin Tea, Lifted Tea, Tea Bomb 💣 or a Boosted Tea, a Loaded Tea can be converted into: Mega Teas or Lit Teas (more caffeine); Refresher Teas (less caffeine); a Sugar Free Electrolyte Drink (no caffeine); #WaterTok 💧 Flavored Water Flavors (No caffeine); and 💋 Beauty Tea Drinks (Added Collagen). Endless 🤩 possibilities!

- 1 GZ Organic Instant Aloe Stick
- ¼ tsp GZ Watermelon Sugar Free Drink Mix

Directions
Loaded Tea Base Section for Layered Tea: Use a Tall (24-32 oz) Cup or Tumbler 🥤
- Add 4oz (½ Cup) warm/hot 💧 water (not boiling) to the cup.
- If using Energy Tablet: Crush the energy tablet (Tip: Leave the tablet in package, unopened and tap with a heavy spoon 🥄 or something similar).
- Add the crushed Energy Tablet or the Energy Stick Pack to the cup and stir to dissolve. It will get 🫧 bubbly first, then dissolve down.
- Add the herbal tea concentrate to the cup and stir until dissolved.
- Pack the cup with ice 🧊 to the top. We use nugget ice (like Sonic ice), which is preferred and works best. We use the Frigidaire Nugget Ice Maker. Totally worth the investment! #CommissionsEarned
Loaded Tea Top Section 🔝
- Separately mix the Beauty Booster, both the Strawberry and Watermelon sugar-free drink mixes, plus the Instant Aloe 🌱 Stick contents with 6oz (¾ Cup) cold 💧 water and stir until dissolved.
- Pour slowly into the cup over the ice.
