Butterfly Pea Antioxidant Marg
Share
A margarita with a built-in show — the deep blue base shifts toward violet-pink the moment fresh lime hits the glass. Same easy, refreshing margarita you already know, just with a color-changing twist and butterfly pea's antioxidants along for the ride.
Ingredients
- 1 tsp Queen Omi Organic Butterfly Pea Powder
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 2 oz tequila
- 1 oz triple sec
- 1 oz fresh lime juice
- 1/2 oz agave syrup, or to taste
- Ice
- Lime wheel and salt, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Whisk the butterfly pea powder with the hot water until fully dissolved into a concentrate. Let cool.
- If desired, rim a glass with salt and fill with ice.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, triple sec, agave syrup, and butterfly pea concentrate with ice. Shake well.
- Strain into the prepared glass — the drink will pour a deep blue-violet.
- Add the fresh lime juice just before serving and give it a light stir, watching the color shift toward pink.
- Garnish with a lime wheel.
Note: Want an alcohol-free version? Swap the tequila and triple sec for extra lime juice and a splash of soda water — the color-change effect works exactly the same either way.
