Butterfly Pea Lemonade

Step 1

Combine hot water, sugar, and dried flowers in a glass bowl or medium pot. Add hot water to the tea mixture and let it steep for 15 minutes. Use a whisk to stir and make sure the sugar is dissolved.

Step 2

Strain the tea mixture over the sink and place the tea in a vase, let cool and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.

Step 3

Prepare your glasses with ice cubes and garnish options. Pour the cold blue tea over your glasses and leave the top 2-3 inches at the top for lemon or lime juice or lemonade.

Step 4

Pour 1-2 tablespoon(per serving) of lime or lemon juice over the blue tea and watch the magic happens! The tea will turn all shades of pink, purple, and magenta, rather hypnotizing to watch! Taste the tea and adjust the flavor with more lemon or lime juice. Or you can use store-bought lemonade too for a less sour lemonade. The leftover tea will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
