Butterfly Pea Flowers (also known as Aprajita, Cordofan, Clitoria ternatea, Anchan, blue pea, or Asian pigeonwings) are whole dried flowers known for their deep blue color and use in color-changing teas.

🌿 Flavor & Aroma

  • Mild, earthy, slightly woodsy taste
  • Little to no bitterness
  • Color is the main draw, not strong flavor

💧 The Color-Change Effect

  • Steeped alone, the liquid turns a deep blue
  • Adding an acid like lemon juice shifts it to purple or pink
  • Used to make "blue tea" and color-changing drinks

🍞 Where You'll Find It

  • Herbal teas and tisanes
  • Natural food coloring for breads, pasta, rice, and desserts
  • Cocktails and mocktails for the color-shift effect

🧂 How to Use It

  • Steep 4-6 whole flowers (or about 1 teaspoon) in hot water for 5-7 minutes
  • Strain before drinking
  • Add lemon or lime juice to shift color from blue to purple

Sold in a resealable bag containing 1.5 oz of pure Butterfly Pea Flowers.
