Galaxy Color Changing Lemonade Slushie Ingredients

  • 1 cup lemonade (preferably fresh or store-bought)
  • 1/2 cup butterfly pea flower tea (brewed and cooled)
  • 2 cups ice cubes
  • Sweetener to taste (such as sugar, honey, or agave syrup)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Butterfly Pea Flower Tea: Brew butterfly pea flower tea by steeping dried butterfly pea flowers in hot water until a deep blue color forms. Let it cool completely before use to avoid melting the ice prematurely.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a blender, add the cooled butterfly pea flower tea, lemonade, sweetener, and ice cubes. The amount of sweetener can be adjusted according to your taste preference.
  3. Blend the Mixture: Blend on high speed until the ice is crushed and the mixture reaches a smooth, slushie consistency.
  4. Observe the Color Change: As the acidic lemonade mixes with the butterfly pea flower tea, watch the magical color change from deep blue to purple or magenta, creating a galaxy-like effect.
  5. Serve Immediately: Pour the slushie into glasses and serve right away to enjoy the vibrant colors and refreshing taste.

Notes

  • Use fresh or high-quality lemonade for the best taste.
  • Sweetener is optional depending on the sweetness of your lemonade.
  • You can adjust the ice amount to change the thickness of the slushie.
  • For a layered visual effect, try pouring the butterfly pea tea and lemonade separately before mixing.
  • This recipe is caffeine-free if using caffeine-free butterfly pea flower tea.
