Why should a person try Butterfly Pea Tea?

Butterfly Pea Tea, or Blue Tea, is a caffeine-free herbal tea originating from Southeast Asian countries and made from the flowers of the Butterfly Pea Plant (Clitoria ternatea), known as Shankhupushpam in Malayalam. Its biggest specialty is its beautiful deep blue color. This attractive blue color is due to the presence of potent antioxidants called Anthocyanins. Health-wise, it helps improve memory and concentration, and its calming effect is excellent for reducing stress and anxiety. It also plays a role in improving skin and hair health. When acidic substances like lemon juice are added to this tea, its pH value changes, causing the blue color to transform into violet or pink, which is a spectacular sight. For this reason, it is widely used to provide natural coloring in various cocktails and drinks.
