If you like boba, you’re going to enjoy this Peach Ring Jelly Drink. It’s easy to customize flavors, fun to make, and a unique drink for the summer season.
What is Peach Ring Jelly Drink?
This jelly drink was made famous on TikTok and Instagram. So of course, my youngest daughter convinced me that I had to make this. Jelly milk drinks can be made using any flavored gummy candy, so if you don’t want a peach flavor drink use your preferred flavor. For example, strawberry gummies to make strawberry jelly milk.
The gummies are dissolved with boiling water and chilled to become a jelly, which is then broken into bite-sized pieces to drink. It’s reminiscent of boba balls, so if you like boba drinks, you’ll enjoy this one.

How to Make Peach Ring Jelly Drink
Peach Puree for Peach Milk
Step 1. Wash and slice a peach. Note: I’m using nectarines, which are fuzzless peaches!
Tip: Use this technique to make other types of fruit purees to flavor milk. You can also skip the fruit puree if you can buy premade flavored milk to match the flavored fruit gummies that are used.
Step 2. Next, add the sliced peach to a blender with 1/4 cup of water. Blitz until it is smooth and pureed.
Step 3. Finally, add the peach puree to a pot and set to medium-high heat. Mix in 2 to 3 T. of sugar. Bring to a boil, continuously stirring for about 4-5 minutes to slightly thicken. Remove from heat to cool. When the puree is cooled, place it in the refrigerator to chill while the peach ring jelly is prepared.
How to Make Peach Ring Jelly
Step 1. Bring at least 2 1/2 cups of water to a boil. In a 16 oz. glass cup, place 10 – 12 peach jelly rings and pour about 1 cup of water into the glass OR just enough water to cover the peach rings. Stir to dissolve the peach rings. Set aside to slightly cool. Cover and place into the refrigerator solidify the jelly (minimum 6 hours to overnight).
Putting Together the Peach Ring Jelly and Peach Milk
Step 1. To 1 3/4 cups of milk (I used Lactaid), mix in 3-5 T. (add to your taste) of peach puree. Optional – strain milk to remove any excess puree pulp. I don’t mind the pulp, but I did strain it for my daughter.
Note: Use any leftover peach puree to make more peach milk, add to yogurt, or use any other way you like.
Step 2. Remove peach jelly from the fridge and gently pour the prepared peach milk over it.
Note: If you want a bit of ‘fizz’, leave some space at the top of the cup and fill with a bit of Sprite or 7up. Best to drink right away as it tends to separate when served this way.
Step 3. Use a stainless steel boba straw to pierce the jelly. Continue piercing the jelly until all the jelly is broken into pieces that can be sucked through the straw.
FYI – Kids LOVE doing this part. And if you’re serving to guest, you can serve it layered and have the guests break up the jelly.
Step 4. Optional last step – Garnish straw with 2 peach jelly rings and a sliced peach (use a toothpick pierced partly through the peach and place the other end inside the peach rings).
