Blue Butterflies? .:**:.☆*.:｡.✿ This is possibly the purdiest Blue you can find as a Natural Food Ingredient. Yeah, I'll admit I bought it just for the colour.

Butterfly Pea Tea at Took Lae Dee. It's actually a 'soda chan' or 'Nimbu Pani'(aka "Fresh lime soda sweet, good to beat the Bombay Heat" as Mr Boman of Britannia Cafe used to jest. Always felt warmly welcomed there whenever I popped overb for some of their legendary cranberry pulao, because Mr B would trade jokes with me. RIP Mr B). Of course, I didn't realise that it was a lime soda till I drank up most of the upper blue portion 😁😁. The lovely violet-blue tint of the drink comes from the Blue Pea flower of course. Interestingly, a Nonya lady who made unbelievable nonya dumplings previously shared with me that the way to bring out the violet-blue from dried blue pea flowers is to add a wee bit of lime juice.
