The magical Butterfly Pea Flower has been making quite a splash lately due to its beautiful colour, gentle earthy aroma and powerful health benefits. It has been used for hundreds of years throughout Southeast Asia and China for its anti-inflammatory properties and potent antioxidants.
We are absolutely enchanted by this beautiful little blossom (in fact, we’ve loaded our Peace Bath Spell with them!) We love to bathe in Butterfly Pea Flowers because they make the water a deeper blue the longer you soak and are great for your skin, it is a truly magical experience.
We also love to drink them! Butterfly Pea Flower has a very mild earthy taste that lends itself to almost any combination of flavours. The other very cool thing about these flowers is that they CHANGE COLOUR. When acidity is added to the tea it transforms from blue to deep purple, even to vibrant red! It can be served iced or hot, sweet or tart, with milk or not, there are so many options!
Peach and Honey Purple Iced Tea
5-7 Butterfly Pea Flowers
1 Peach finely chopped or macerated
1 tbs Local Honey
Ice
-Steep the flowers in hot water 2-3 minutes until the tea is a deep blue. Stir in the Honey and pour over ice. Stir in the peaches and watch the tea turn a deep purple! Garnish with peach slices.
Cinnamon, Maple Blue Milk Tea
5-7 Butterfly Pea Flowers
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tbs Maple Syrup
¼ cup Milk
Ice (if you want to go iced!)
-Steep the Butterfly Pea Flowers in hot water for 2-3 minutes until a deep blue is achieved. Stir in all of the other ingredients and pour over ice if desired. Garnish with a cinnamon stick.
Colour Changing Lemon Tea
5-7 Butterfly Pea Flowers
Half a lemon (less or more to taste)
Ice (if desired)
-Steep those beautiful flowers 2-3 minutes. Pour over ice if desired. Squeeze in the lemon and watch the magic happen. Depending on how much you add the colour will change from a deep purple to a vibrant red. The more lemon you add, the more red your tea will become! Garnish with a lemon slice.
We hope you enjoy these beautiful tea recipes and take the opportunity for some self-care (they pair very well with a Bath Spell…) Let us know below if you’ve ever tried Butterfly Pea Flower Tea and share your favorite ways to prepare it!

My wish right now is that God should continue to bless Dr Emu for his good works towards the life of those people who are heart broken. My name is Michael DeBruin and I am from the USA, it’s been a while since my lover’s attitude changed from being the caring type she has been to me, but later turned out not to be caring at all. But not long, I later discovered that my lover was having an affair with someone else. and also she told me she doesn’t need me after all we pass through then a friend told me about a spell caster. that with the spell I will get back my woman, I took his cell number then called him and also what’s-app him which he reply to me and I did some sacrifices to the spell man and he bought the items for me which he used for the sacrifices and later called me that before 48 hours my love will come back to me and now we are more in love with each other than ever. you can reach him on WhatsApp +2347012841542 or reach him via mail ; emutemple@gmail.com , my lover returned back and broke up with the other guy she was having a relationship with… Thank you Dr Emu.
