From sour candies and citrus sodas to tangy mocktails, sour flavors have become one of the fastest-rising taste trends worldwide. Sour Boba captures this movement by delivering bright, mouth-watering flavor bursts that instantly elevate both drinks and desserts.

Bold Flavor Meets Playful Texture

Unlike traditional sweet toppings, Sour Boba offers a multi-sensory experience—a sharp, refreshing tang followed by a juicy pop that surprises and delights consumers. This unique combination makes Sour Boba ideal for:

• Fruit teas & lemonades
• Sparkling sodas & refreshers
• Mocktails & cocktails
• Slushies, smoothies, yogurt and desserts
• RTD sour-inspired beverage concepts

Its eye-catching colors and dynamic texture make it especially attractive for social-media-focused menus and limited-time beverage promotions.

Designed for Speed, Scale, and Creativity

Sour Boba requires no cooking, no equipment, and no staff training, enabling operators to introduce new sour-flavor drinks instantly while maintaining operational efficiency. This makes it a perfect solution for:

• Cafés & bubble tea chains
• QSR and fast-casual brands
• Convenience stores & grab-and-go retail
• Theme parks, stadiums & entertainment venues
• RTD beverage developers and private-label brands

A New Growth Driver for Beverage Innovation

“Sour flavors are no longer niche—they’re mainstream, especially among younger consumers,” said the Leamaxx Product Innovation Team. “Sour Boba allows brands to tap into this demand with minimal complexity while delivering a bold, unforgettable drinking experience.”

Sour Boba will be showcased at IFE 2026 in London, where buyers can explore its applications across sparkling drinks, fruit teas, RTD formats, and seasonal beverage programs.
