Ingredients
  

2 tablespoons butterfly pea flower tea leaves

2 cups hot water

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

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Ice cubes

Optional: Edible flowers or fresh mint for garnish

Instructions
 

Brew the Tea: Start by boiling 2 cups of water. Once it reaches a boil, remove it from heat and add the butterfly pea flower tea leaves. Let it steep for about 5-10 minutes for a rich blue color.

    Sweeten the Tea: After steeping, strain the tea into a pitcher. Add honey or maple syrup while the tea is still warm, stirring until dissolved. Allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled.

      Prepare the Latte Base: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and vanilla extract until frothy. If you want a colorful twist, you can lightly whip the milk for a thicker texture.

        Assemble the Latte: Fill a glass with ice cubes. Pour the chilled butterfly pea tea over the ice, filling it halfway.

          Add the Milk: Gently pour the frothed milk on top of the tea by using the back of a spoon to create a layered effect. This will give you the beautiful visual of blue tea and white frothy milk.

            Garnish & Serve: Optionally, float some edible flowers or fresh mint leaves on top for an attractive presentation. Serve immediately with a straw so you can enjoy the mix of beautiful blue and creamy white as you sip!
