Wild Hibiscus Whole Dried Butterfly Pea Flowers 2 oz. (57 g) Bag

Looking for an ingredient that will dazzle your customers and set your menu apart? These whole dried butterfly pea flowers from Wild Hibiscus are perfect for crafting stunningly colored teas, cocktails, mocktails, and even foods! When steeped in hot or cold water, butterfly pea flowers produce a mesmerizingly brilliant blue tea that’s perfect for adding color to a whole host of recipes. This seemingly magical tea can even change color before your guests’ eyes! Squeeze in a few drops of lemon or lime to change the color from deep blue to purple to pink depending on how much citrus you add. The acidity in the citrus fruits activates the color changing properties of this product. When enjoyed on its own, butterfly pea flower tea has a mild, earthy flavor, somewhat similar to the taste of green tea. This caffeine-free tea is a healthy, all-natural way to add color to beverages without artificial ingredients or large amounts of sugar. It’s high in anthocyanin antioxidants and is prized in Ayurvedic medicine, where it is said to improve memory and circulation. To make your own butterfly pea flower tea, steep 1-3 tsp. of flowers in 1 cup of water. Steep in boiling water for 5 minutes or in cold water for 8 – 10 hours.
