Before we dive deeper into making the recipe, first lets discuss a little about this magical blue pea tea.

What Is Blue Pea Tea?

Blue pea tea (also known as butterfly pea flower tea) is an herbal infusion made from dried Clitoria ternatea flowers. Originating in Southeast Asia, it’s prized for its vibrant indigo color and health benefits.

The magic happens when you add anything acidic, like lemon juice, which turns the deep blue liquid into a beautiful pink-purple hue.

This transformation makes blue pea tea perfect for eye-catching drinks like pink lemonade, without using any food coloring!

How to Make Healthy Pink Lemonade (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Brew the Blue Pea Tea

• In a heat-safe cup or teapot, add the tea bag or dried butterfly pea flowers.
• Pour over 1½ cups of hot water.
• Let it steep for 2-3 minutes until the water turns a deep blue.
• Strain and let it cool completely.

Step 2: Make the Pink Lemonade & Serve

• Take a tall glass and add ice till half the glass is full.
• Add the lemonade syrup (homemade or store bought)
• Add the cooled blue tea.
• Add some more water and splash of soda on top.
• Garnish with lemon slices.
• Stir and serve chilled.

Health Benefits of Blue Pea Tea Pink Lemonade

This sugar-free pink lemonade is not just pretty—it’s incredibly healthy too, especially if your family is following a multiple diet or restrictions like mine for Diabetes, Keto, Low Calorie or No Sugar, this drink is a great help.

 1. Full of Antioxidants

Butterfly pea flowers are packed with anthocyanins, which may help protect the skin, boost brain function, and reduce inflammation.

2. Detox & Digestive Support

Lemon juice stimulates digestion and supports liver detoxification, making this a perfect detox drink.

3. No Blood Sugar Spikes

Thanks to natural, low-GI sweeteners, this drink is safe for diabetics and anyone on a low-carb or keto diet.

 4. Great for Hydration

Perfect for hot days or post-workout refreshment, especially when you add a pinch of pink salt for electrolytes.

Storage & Serving Tips

• Make a larger batch and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Always add lemon juice and ice right before serving for the freshest taste and vibrant color.
• You can even make a big batch of Blue Pea Tea and store it separately for quick access.
• I sometimes like to serve this with fresh mint leaves or flowers for a prettier version.
• This goes brilliantly for Romantic dates or Fancy Afternoon Teas or Parties.
