4. Serve the butterfly pea flower tea with some ice, and the sweet syrup and lemon juice mixture on the side. As you slowly add the lemon juice mixture to the butterfly pea flower tea, you will see the blue tea changing colour into purple and then a vibrant magenta! Don’t blink, it happens really fast!
5. To drink, add the syrup, but go easy on the sugar! And there, you have the perfect magical unicorn lemonade!
The Science Behind It!
The butterfly pea flower contains a high concentration of a blue-violet plant pigment called anthocyanin; the colour of this pigment depends on the acidity of its environment. It starts out blue, and slowly changes to purple and then magenta as acidity increases!
