Ingredients
  

For the Drink
  • 2 cups brewed butterfly pea flower tea
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or sweetener of choice Adjust to taste.
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice Optional, for added tang.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by brewing the butterfly pea flower tea. Let it steep for about 5-10 minutes to get a rich blue color.
  2. Once brewed, strain the tea into a pitcher and let it cool.
Mixing
  1. In a glass, add ice cubes and pour in the cooled tea.
  2. Gently mix in the milk to create a swirled effect.
  3. For sweetness, add honey or your preferred sweetener. Stir lightly.
  4. If desired, add a splash of fresh lemon juice to change the color and add a tangy flavor.
  5. Serve chilled and enjoy your refreshing drink!

Notes

To deepen the blue color, let the tea cool completely before adding milk. Experiment with different sweeteners, like agave syrup or stevia, for a different taste. For extra flavor, infuse the tea with fruit like blueberries or a hint of vanilla. Consider garnishing with a slice of lemon or sprig of mint for added style.
