Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon butterfly pea flower powder
- ¼ cup cold water
- 1-3 teaspoons maple syrup (or preferred liquid sweetener, to taste)
- several ice cubes
- ¾ cup oat milk (or preferred milk)
Optional for purple latte:
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Sift the butterfly pea powder into a small jar with an airtight lid.
- Add the cold water to the jar, tightly close the lid, and shake the jar for about 30 seconds until no powder remains. (see note)
- Add liquid sweetener, tightly close the lid again, and shake the jar a few more times until the sweetener is well-combined with the cold-brewed butterfly pea tea.
- Slowly pour the blue matcha tea into a tall (16-ounce) glass.
- Add several ice cubes, filling the glass.
- Slowly pour the milk onto the ice cubes, being careful to preserve the matcha layer if you want a layered effect. Stir and enjoy!
Notes
- For a purple latte, add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice before adding sweetener. Watch the color change from blue to purple!
