How can I add a colored border to my text box?

Just add an image element with the same scale and position as your text box.

I believe what @SohailBukhari is saying is to add an image gameobject and a child of your text gameobject
Each gameobject in a canvas hierarchy can only have one rendered component at a time. You need two gameobjects for this. The first (hierarchically first) with the text and with border second. You can use the 9-slice technique to create a border that's not using much space on the sprite. Switch the Image from Simple to Sliced and edit the sprite like this:
