If you then squeeze a slice of lemon into the tea, it magically turns from blue to purple right before your eyes. You can use this tea for your coffee, cocktail or smoothie. The dried butterfly pea can also be used as an ingredient  or a blue/purple decoration for your rice, cake, cookies, ice cream, bread and baked good. and its free of any chemicals because it is natural ! Also, if you’re a DIY’er, you can use these blue pea flowers to make your own soap bars or shampoo –the possibilities are endless! When consumed with hot or cold water, the taste is usually described as “earthy & woody,” more similar to the flavor of unsweetened green tea. This fun drink can be mixed with syrup, honey, and lemon to give you that sweet, herbal taste. Mix this blue tea in your baking. Make a blue galaxy cake, ice-cream or sweets. Squeeze in a twist of lemon or lime and as the pH becomes more acidic, the solution turns a beautiful deep magenta. This tea comes with a lot of health benefits as well the first one being high antioxidant value. In some Asian countries it is believed that consumption of the flower promotes a younger skin. Researchers investigated the protective effect of the flower and found that it contains polyacylated anthocyanins and flavonol glycosides as major constituents, which protect skin cells against oxidative stress or damages by ultraviolet rays and hydrogen peroxide.
