WHAT IS A BLUE MILK ICED LATTE?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I was looking through old photos on my blog and got inspired by my other layered lattes, like my dirty matcha and my pink velvet macchiato. I wanted to create a similar effect, wtih gorgeous butterfly pea powder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blue milk iced latte is made of a naturally sweetened butterfly pea tea blue milk, splashed with a little milk, and topped with a dark roast double shot of espresso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is so pretty and so delicious! I made mine poured over ice for the gorgeous effect, but you can absolutely make it warm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
ASK THE DIETITIAN, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
IS THE BLUE ESPRESSO LATTE GOOD FOR YOU?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Yes! It is made with a few simple (and natural) ingredients!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Organic Soy Milk<\/strong>- unlike other dairy free milks, soy milk is comparable to the nutrient profile of cow's milk in that it has calcium, protein, and vitamin D. Even a little polyunsaturated fats, and fiber in there too from the soy bean! Make sure to always choose organic soy products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Butterfly Pea Flower Powder<\/strong>- is rich in antioxidants that help fight inflammation all over your body and reduce damage leading to premature aging. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Raw Manuka Honey<\/strong>- is the queen of all honey. Raw manuka honey should only be consumed cold to get all the benefits like promotion of good gut bacteria. Also- it is absolutely amazing for your skin when made into a mask!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Fresh Espresso from Organic Coffee Beans<\/strong>- coffee can help boost brain health and actually contains antioxidants! Make sure to always buy high quality organic coffee to get the most benefits from those coffee beans. <\/li>\n\n\n\n

TIPS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
USE HIGH QUALITY ORGANIC HONEY<\/strong>. If you want a sweeter latte, use raw honey for the health benefits of honey. Otherwise, go unsweetened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BLEND BUTTERFLY PEA INTO MILK<\/strong>. Any powder, like matcha, and butterfly pea powder, is difficult to completely whisk into milk without any powder chunks remaining. I like to pour mine into a blender to completely puree any powdery bits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
POUR SLOWLY<\/strong>. For a pretty blue milk and espresso layering effect, make sure to pour slowly over the ice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
HOW TO MAKE A LAYERED BLUE MILK ESPRESSO LATTE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
STEP 1- make a double shot of espresso<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, make a double shot of espresso. This allows a little bit of time for the espresso to cool before pouring it over your icy drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
STEP 2- make the blue milk<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next, add 1 teaspoon butterfly pea powder, 1 tablespoon of honey (optional to make it sweeter), and \u00bc cup of milk. Whisk or blend until it is totally pureed and no butterfly pea powder remains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
STEP 3- pour over ice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, pour the blue milk over a glass filled with ice. Slowly pour \u00bc cup more milk. And then, add the double shot of espresso on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enjoy!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
