Vivid and full of wonder, our organic butterfly pea flowers bring a touch of natural magic to your daily ritual. Clitoria ternatea is a perennial herb native to Southeast Asia, cherished for its deep indigo petals rich in anthocyanins, the natural pigments that create its striking blue hue. When steeped, these petals turn your tea a brilliant sapphire color. Add a few drops of lemon juice and watch it shift to a soft violet, a simple yet beautiful expression of plant alchemy.
Traditionally used in Thai and Ayurvedic herbal practices, butterfly pea tea is enjoyed for its gentle, calming qualities and its uplifting visual appeal. The blossoms can be steeped alone or blended with herbs like lemongrass or hibiscus to enhance both flavor and color. Beyond tea, they are also used as a natural dye in foods, drinks, and botanical skincare creations.
How to enjoy:
Steep a small handful of petals in hot water for a mild, calming infusion. Serve over ice with lemon for a refreshing, color-changing drink.
Precautions:
Consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use, especially if pregnant, nursing, or taking medication.
