Butterfly Pea Flower - versatile, warm, complex

Butterfly pea flower's indigo petals have made it increasingly popular in the West, thanks to its hearty amount of anthocyanins, a pigment compound found in fruits like blueberries. This harvest comes from the organic gardens of our dear friend, Mr. Chong, in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Though naturally earthy and woody in taste, Mr. Chong’s gentle roasting process brings a warm complexity. Acidity will make its bold color change—add lemon juice for violet, roselle hibiscus for a deep red, or tonic water for a bright pink.
