Description
KP Organics Blue tea, also known as butterfly pea flower tea, is an herbal infusion native to South Asia.
Butterfly pea flower tea is made by brewing the dried petals of the Clitoria ternatea plant, which is known for its characteristic bright blue color.The plant is also called butterfly pea, blue pea, Aprajita, Cordofan pea, or Asian pigeonwings.Aside from being a natural food colorant, blue tea is widely consumed for its medicinal properties.
Butterfly pea flowers are rich in antioxidants, including compounds called ternatins, which give the plant its vibrant hue.These antioxidants may help alleviate inflammation and prevent cancer cell growth.Blue tea is caffeine-free and often used to promote skin and hair health, aid in weight loss, and reduce blood sugar levels.
How to Brew Blue Tea:
Add 1 teaspoon (4 grams) of dried butterfly pea flowers to 1 cup (240 mL) of hot water.
Let the tea steep for 10–15 minutes before straining out the dried flowers.
Enjoy it hot or served over ice. You can also add a bit of lemon juice, lime juice, or honey to enhance the flavor.
Next time you brew a cup of blue tea, enjoy its vibrant color and potential health benefits! 🌸🍵
