Cotton Candy Beverages

This Cold Tea Beverage Tastes Like a Favorite Fun Fair Snack

Classic cotton candy hardly needs any improvements, but it can now be enjoyed in the form of a cold tea beverage thanks to this recipe from David's Tea.

The main ingredient in the Cotton Candy Float is the tea brand's Cotton Candy tea, which gets its flavor from sweets like mangos, sprinkles, green rooibos and of course, sugar. The rest of the creamy float is prepared with syrup and ice cream to turn a hot tea beverage into a delightful drink for people of all ages. The recipe also suggests that adults who want to take this drink to the next level can also spike this concoction with a shot of vodka.

With its delicious flavors and nostalgia factor, this cold tea beverage makes an ideal summer sipper.
