LOUISIANA, September 28, 2026 — Kajun Loaded Tea, the viral beverage mix brand on TikTok known for bringing the colorful, customizable experience of a specialty tea shop home, is getting spooky as one of its most anticipated launches of the year returns. The brand has officially released its 2026 Limited-Edition Halloween Boo Box: The Return of Gatorghoul, featuring five brand-new Halloween flavors in multiple package options, including a collectible VHS-inspired box while supplies last.

Inspired by the horror section of an old-school video rental store, this year’s Boo Box puts a nostalgic spin on Kajun Loaded Tea’s annual tradition.

“Halloween is how we got here. My original BooBox is what gave us the money to take this company to the next level,” said Nellie Lockhart, founder of Kajun Loaded Tea. “I adore this season. There’s something special about getting to craft, the weather changing, and the simplicity of enjoying a stress-free holiday with family and friends. Our customers connect with that same energy, and our Halloween flavors are always the most fun to create.”

Each box includes ten Loaded Teas along with two packets of each limited-edition flavor.

The five new limited-edition flavors include:

Amuck Amuck Mixer — Red Raspberry + Blue Raspberry

Netherworld Nectar — Peach + Passion Fruit + Mango

Proton Punch — Watermelon

Scream Queen Sipper — Pineapple Fandango + Sour Cherry + Rainbow Candy

Stay Awake Strawberry — Strawberry

Founded by Lockhart after she fell in love with the loaded tea shop culture of the South, Kajun Loaded Tea was created to bring that same colorful, flavor-packed experience directly to customers for a fraction of the price. After opening its first tea shop in 2022, the company transitioned fully online and has since built a passionate digital community around its constantly evolving lineup of more than 70 flavors and seasonal launches throughout the year.

The brand’s Halloween bundles have become some of its fastest-selling limited-edition releases each year, with the Boo Box giving its community an opportunity to experience completely new flavors alongside the surprise-and-delight element that has become central to the annual tradition.

The 2026 Gatorghoul Boo Box is available for a limited time. 10-pack retails for $44.99 and 50-pack retails for $210 on the brand site.

About Kajun Loaded Tea

Kajun Loaded Tea is a female-founded beverage mix brand bringing the vibrant energy of the Louisiana Bayou and the creativity of a specialty tea shop directly to consumers at home. Founded by Nellie Lockhart, the brand offers a 32-ounce iced drink experience made by combining flavored tea mixes with water and ice, enhanced with naturally sourced caffeine from green tea and guarana, B vitamins, and functional add-ins for an energizing boost without the typical coffee crash. From layering colors to mixing flavors that range from sweet and fruity to sour and tangy, Kajun Loaded Tea is just as much about creativity and customization as it is about the drink itself. With a long list of Louisiana-inspired flavors, plus caffeine-free options, customers can mix and match to create a drink that fits their taste. After launching the brand in 2022, Kajun Loaded Tea has since grown into a viral beverage brand with a passionate nationwide community, ranking #1 in TikTok Shop’s Food & Beverage category in 2025 and becoming the #1 Best Seller on Amazon in Gourmet Tea Gifts in August 2026.
