Description
A soothing and visually stunning beverage made with butterfly pea tea, warm milk, and a hint of cinnamon and honey.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup milk (dairy or your favorite plant-based milk)
- 1 tsp butterfly pea tea (loose or in a teabag)
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp honey (or to taste)
Instructions
- Pour 1 cup of your chosen milk into a small pot and warm over medium heat. Heat until the milk is hot to the touch and steam rises — do not let it boil.
- Add 1 teaspoon of butterfly pea tea to the milk. Reduce heat slightly and let it steep for 3–5 minutes, watching the milk turn a rich blue color.
- Remove the tea leaves or teabag; strain if needed.
- Stir in 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1 teaspoon honey until fully dissolved.
- For a frothy texture, use a milk frother or whisk the milk to create foam on top.
- Pour the Moon Milk Tea into your favorite cup, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top, and enjoy while warm.
Notes
For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave. Adjust honey or cinnamon to your preference.
