Ingredients
  

2 teaspoons butterfly pea flower dried petals

1 cup hot water

1 cup milk of choice (almond, oat, coconut, or dairy)

2 teaspoons sweetener (honey, agave syrup, or maple syrup)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Ice cubes

Dried or fresh edible flowers for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Brew the Tea: In a heatproof container, combine the butterfly pea flower petals with 1 cup of hot water. Let steep for 5-7 minutes until a vibrant blue color is achieved. Strain the petals and allow the tea to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled.

    Prepare the Milk: In a separate bowl, froth or whisk your choice of milk until it’s light and airy. You can also use a milk frother for this step to achieve a cafe-style texture.

      Sweeten the Mixture: Stir in your chosen sweetener into the cooled butterfly pea flower tea until dissolved.

        Combine Flavors: Once the tea is sweetened and chilled, add the lemon juice. This will create a stunning color transformation. The tea will shift from blue to a purplish hue, adding to its visual appeal.

          Assemble the Latte: Fill a glass with ice cubes, then pour the sweetened butterfly pea tea over the ice. Slowly add the frothed milk to create a layered effect, allowing the enchanting colors to contrast beautifully.

            Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with dried or fresh edible flowers on top for an aesthetic touch.
