Several types of coffee, tea and boba drink mixes have been recalled due to possible salmonella contamination.
According to a Saturday notice from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, several specialty drinks distributed by SKS Copack contained recalled powdered milk. That ingredient was recalled in April because it may have been contaminated with salmonella, a bacteria that causes food poisoning.
“The recall was initiated after SKS Copack received notification from its supplier regarding a voluntary recall initiated by California Dairies, Inc. for a certain lot of low-fat skim milk powder due to possible salmonella contamination,” SKS Copack said in an announcement shared by the FDA. “According to California Dairies, the recall occurred after the identification of positive salmonella results associated with routine testing of the product.”
The company's Angel Specialty Products, Royal Gold, Boba Time, Fanale and Denda brands' beverage and dessert mixes were affected, with individual products including matcha green tea, taro, caramel latte, horchata, milk tea and Dutch mocha cappuccino. Powdered yogurts, ice cream mixes and smoothie bases from these brands were also affected.
The recalled products were distributed through coffee shops, restaurants and direct delivery through Angel Specialty's website in 25 states, including Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
Affected powdered beverages can be identified by their item and lot code and expiry date, found here. After identifying the problem, the company stopped distributing the recalled items.
Although no illnesses have been reported to date, consumers are urged to return items to the place of purchase for a full refund.
According to the FDA, people with salmonella infections can develop symptoms between 12 and 72 hours after eating contaminated food. Symptoms, which last four to seven days and usually go away without treatment, can include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. People with severe infections may experience high fever, headaches, lethargy, rash, or blood in urine or stool.
Drink mixes were not the only products containing the recently recalled powdered milk. Last week, Sugar Foods LLC recalled several lots of its Kroger Homestyle Cheese and Garlic Croutons because they were made with the dairy ingredient.
The affected croutons were packaged in five-ounce bags and distributed between March 7, 2026 and April 7, 2026 at Kroger stores in 17 states.
Earlier this month, several types of frozen pizzas with affected milk powder were recalled, including Mama Cozzi's Sausage and Cheese Breakfast Pizza with Cracker Crust and Cooked Pork Belly with Crumbled Cracker Crust, Cooked Bacon Topping, and Pepper and Onion Breakfast Pizza. Both were sold in Aldi stores nationwide.
Also included in that recall were three high-value frozen pizzas: Thin Crust Chicken Bacon Ranch, Ultra Thin Crust Chicken Bacon Ranch, and Relleno Crust Chicken Bacon Ranch. They were sold in Walmart stores nationwide.
