Butterfly pea turns milk a soft sky blue — no synthetic dyes, just a plant colour that feels at home in Canadian cafés and home kitchens alike.
Finch Dried Blue Butterfly Pea Powder dissolves cleanly into warm milk. Add a squeeze of citrus and watch it shift toward purple — a small bit of kitchen theatre with every pour.
What you’ll need
- 1 tsp Finch Dried Blue Butterfly Pea Powder
- 1 cup milk of choice (oat or dairy both work well)
- 1–2 tsp honey, maple, or Finch Organic Coconut Sugar
- Optional: ½ tsp vanilla
- Optional: lemon wedge, for the colour shift
Method
- Warm the milk gently — hot but not boiling.
- Whisk in the butterfly pea powder until fully dissolved and vividly blue.
- Sweeten to taste. Add vanilla if you like.
- Froth lightly for a café finish, or pour as-is.
- For the colour change: add a few drops of lemon and swirl — blue softens into lilac.
Café tips
- Serve iced over cold milk and ice for summer menus.
- Pair with a light biscuit or coconut dessert topping.
- Start with less powder; a little goes a long way.
