🍅 Tomato Bubble Cotton Candy Drink | Summer Refreshing Magic

The cherry tomatoes added a juicy bite, while the sugar pearls gave a satisfying crunch. Since then, this drink has been my summer staple, and friends always ask for the recipe after trying it.

It’s like sipping on a "tomato-flavored cloud"—refreshing, photogenic, and guaranteed to impress!
