  • Author: tastytrails
  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

A warm, soothing tea with a vibrant blue color, made with butterfly pea tea, milk, and a hint of cinnamon.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tsp butterfly pea tea (loose or in a teabag)
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp honey (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. In a small pot, gently warm 1 cup of milk over medium heat. Avoid boiling; just let it get hot enough for steeping.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon of butterfly pea tea to the milk. Let it steep for 3-5 minutes until the milk turns a rich blue color. Strain the tea or remove the teabag once it’s steeped.
  3. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1 teaspoon of honey until both dissolve. Adjust honey to your preferred sweetness.
  4. (Optional): If you like a frothy texture, use a milk frother or whisk to create foam on top of the tea.
  5. Pour the Moon Milk Tea into your favorite cup, and sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top for a cozy finish. Enjoy your soothing, blue-hued tea!

Notes

Use a good-quality butterfly pea tea for the best color and flavor. Adjust sweetness to taste.
