Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Iced Blue Tea Latte
  1. Begin by boiling water to just off boiling point, approximately 200°F. Place 1 tablespoon of dried butterfly pea flowers in a teapot or heatproof container. Pour the hot water over the flowers and steep for 5 to 7 minutes. Strain out the flowers and allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
  2. In a blender, combine ⅓ cup of ice-cold milk (or your choice of dairy-free milk) with 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup. Blend on high for about 10 seconds until a frothy consistency develops.
  3. Grab a tall, clear glass and fill it generously with ice cubes. Pour the cooled blue tea into the glass over the ice, allowing the rich color to shine through. Spoon or pour the creamy vanilla cold foam on top.
  4. Present your Iced Blue Tea Latte immediately for maximum visual impact, and enjoy!
