This is definitely one of our most popular blends and the reason is rather simple- not only does it look beautiful, it tastes delicious, fun and has great health benefits! Lavish Blue tea is extremely soothing and refreshing. Add some lime and honey, and have it hot or iced as a cold brew tea. Steep the tea and have it as is or make a fun cocktail or lemonade. This color changing drink is versatile, yummy and fun!
Butterfly blue pea flowers have antioxidant rich anthocyanins that impart a deep blue color. When an acid like lime is added to the tea, it changes color to a bright violet. The lemongrass, ginger, single origin Darjeeling green tea and mint add a melange of lovely earthy, citrus, zesty, vegetal and herbaceous notes. Packed with antioxidants from the butterfly blue pea flower and green tea, the lemongrass, mint and ginger have anti-inflammatory benefits and improve digestion.

Elephants help define the entire ecosystem and are the “gardeners of the planet”. They consume different varieties of berries, bark, leaves, roots, and foliage; and wander across vast forests, dispersing seeds in their dung. The Indian elephant is listed as an endangered species with only 20,000-25,000 left in the wild.
The blend is perfect and so much better than the plain pea flower teas I have tried. The taste is delicate but adds so much and is so comforting and soul soothing, I love it at bed time with milk. The baby blue creamy color is so relaxing. But the natural vibrant blue color before adding milk is spectacular! Their pretty tins are a treat as well. I love Herbs & Kettles!
I'll be honest, I purchased this tea for the stunning color. A quick steep produces the most glorious deep violet hue, that feels like a treat for your inner child. The tea itself it light and lovely. Hints of mint and lemongrass keep it delicate and refreshing. I love it with a touch of honey.
Lavish Blue Tea is a visually stunning, antioxidant-rich herbal blend of butterfly pea flower, green tea, lemongrass, ginger, and mint that offers a refreshing, calming experience.
When brewed it’s a vibrant blue color, with the unique ability to turn purple when mixed with acidic ingredients like lemon. Which is how chose to prepare mine.
Its taste is balanced, blending the floral notes of butterfly pea with the bright citrus of lemongrass, the warming spice of ginger, and the cool freshness of mint.
Generally I found lemongrass to be the most prominent notes, giving the tea a bright, refreshing, and lemon-like flavor. Notes from the butterfly blue pea flowers and green tea provide an earthy, vegetal base.
When I added the lemon, the citrus notes remained the most prominent, but it further enhanced the finish of the ginger which laid on the tip of the tongue. Which was then finished by a cooling minty feel.
It’s a versatile blend and can be prepared for hot and iced beverages, cocktails, and as a soothing, caffeine-free option for relaxation.
