Here is my full code using tag from remote search. Hope this is helpful.

$('#myInput').selectize({
valueField: 'id',
labelField: 'name',
searchField: 'name',
options: [],
delimiter: ',',
persist: false,
create: false,
load: function(query, callback) {
    if (!query.length) return callback();
    $.ajax({
        url: '/api/all_cities.php',
        type: 'GET',
        dataType: 'json',
        data: {
            name: query,
        },
        error: function() {
            callback();
        },
        success: function(res) {
            callback(res);
        }
    });
},
onInitialize: function(){
    var selectize = this;
    $.get("/api/selected_cities.php", function( data ) {
        selectize.addOption(data); // This is will add to option
        var selected_items = [];
        $.each(data, function( i, obj) {
            selected_items.push(obj.id);
        });
        selectize.setValue(selected_items); //this will set option values as default
    });
}
});
