Butterfly Pea Flower Tea – Color-Changing Blue Herbal TeaEnjoyed for centuries in Southeast Asia as a vibrant herbal tea — as well as a plant-based food and natural dye — Butterfly Pea Flower (Clitoria ternatea) has recently made a global impact, and we simply can't get enough of it! Our naturally grown Butterfly Pea Flower tea comes from Thailand and brews into a striking blue tea that looks as magical as it tastes. Butterfly Pea Flower tea releases its bright blue color when the flowers are steeped, deepening to an inky indigo. But the real magic happens when you add an acidic ingredient such as fresh citrus or lemon juice: the infusion transforms into a lovely shade of royal purple right before your eyes! Tasting Notes
Why You'll Love ItButterfly Pea Flower tea is as fun to brew as it is beautiful to look at. Because its flavor is so mild, it complements other teas and juices beautifully, adding a natural pop of color without changing the taste.
How to EnjoyEnjoy the striking hue of this vibrant tea on its own, or add it to your favorite tea blends, lemonades, mocktails, cocktails, rice, baked goods and smoothie bowls for a wow factor that's sure to please. Serve it with a lemon wedge on the side and let your guests watch the color change — it's a guaranteed conversation starter! Magical, beautiful and endlessly creative, Butterfly Pea Flower is the tea that turns every cup into a show. |

A little steeping tipHerbal blends don’t turn bitter — let them steep a little longer for a deeper, fuller flavour.
A fresh way to enjoy itSweeten while the tea is still hot so it dissolves. For a smoother, mellower glass, try cold brew: leaves in cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours.
