About Crystal Tea: Butterfly Pea Tea
Our version of the Blue Butterfly Pea Tea is dried butterfly pea flowers that are beautifully blended with Australian-grown lemon myrtle and ginger, making it a refreshing tonic that you can drink hot or iced!
The ingredients are 100% organic butterfly pea flower, Australian lemon myrtle and ginger.
What are the health benefits?
Although the blue butterfly pea tea is mostly known as a food coloring in western countries, it's pretty popular in Asia as a "welcome drink" in massage parlours and spas. It's known as a "beauty tea" as promotes circulation to skin, hair and eyes.
Here are some of its notable benefits:
Helps with hair growth and strengthening
Treats eye infections and other eye-related health concerns
Increases blood circulation in the head
Has anti-inflammatory and anti-depression properties
Helps in promoting collagen production and maintaining skin elasticity
What does Crystal tea change color?
This colour change from blue to purple happens when the pH of the tea is lowered (as a result of the acidic lemon). A fun alternative to the litmus test for the kids and a tasty drink to enjoy afterwards!
Perfect for cocktails, relaxing warm teas, smoothies, cakes, popsicles and anything you want to naturally colour blue!
What does Crystal Butterfly Pea Tea taste like?
The tea itself has a slight grassy and vegetal taste. This is why we created Crystal Blue Butterfly Pea tea which is a unique blend of organic Australian lemon myrtle and ginger. The lemon tones and citrus flavor make it a great choice for a warm magical tea or a fun iced tea.
What is the best way to make it?
Here's a simple guide on how to create your own magical and delicious Blue Butterly Pea tea:
- Add 1-2 teaspoons of Crystal Butterfly Pea Tea into a 250ml cup. Make sure that there are around 3-4 dried butterfly pea flowers in there.
- Let it steep in water at 100 degrees Celsius for about 5-8 minutes.
- Strain the tea leaves and sweeten it up with a little honey (optional). To change the color from blue to purple, you can add just a few drops of lemon juice.
