HOW DO YOU MAKE A MERMAID LATTE?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Mermaid latte's are so easy to make! Fill a tall skinny glass with ice. Then, add a layer of cold milk, a layer of blended butterfly pea tea, and a layer of matcha green tea! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sip and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ARE BUTTERFLY PEA AND MATCHA THE SAME THING?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
No! They are two totally different teas. Each have their own unique health benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Butterfly Pea Powder<\/strong><\/span><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n Butterfly pea powder is all natural and plant derived. Actually, it comes from a plant native to South East Asia called clitoria ternatea<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Butterfly pea powder is:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Matcha Green Tea Powder<\/strong><\/span><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n Matcha green tea powder, is like healthy green tea... but 100x better. The green tea leaves are grown in the shade, and then hand selected for the best quality and flavor. Instead of bagging the leaves after they are dried, green tea leaves are then ground up, giving you a LOT of green tea in just 1 teaspoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Matcha green tea powder is:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n ASK THE DIETITIAN<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes you can! Butterfly pea has anti-inflammatory properties<\/strong> which are great for reducing inflammation<\/strong> and fatigue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Your Shopping List:<\/p>\n\n\n\n HOW TO MAKE IT:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Start by filling a glass with ice<\/strong>. <\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n Make sure you fill the glass to the top with ice. The ice helps to separate the layers.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n Next, make your sweet milk layer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n In a bowl, whisk together the milk and the sweetener<\/strong> (optional). If you are using honey, it will seem very thick at first, but don't worry because the more you stir the honey will dissolve into the milk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Make your butterfly pea tea:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n In another bowl, whisk the 1 teaspoon of butterfly pea powder with the milk<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2 WAYS TO POUR<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To get solid layers<\/span>: mix with \u00bc cup of milk. This will make your tea thicker and stay on top of the milk layer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To get swirled layers<\/span>: mix with \u00bd cup of milk. This will make it the same consistency as the bottom layer and mix together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Make your matcha green tea:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Whisk the 1 teaspoon of matcha green tea powder with the \u00bc-1\/2 cup of milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use \u00bc cup of milk for solid layers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use \u00bd cup of milk for layers that swirl together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n More frequently asked questions about my mermaid latte recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What kind of milk should I use in a butterfly pea matcha latte?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I like to use vanilla soy milk in all of my iced drinks. But, you can use the type of milk that you have it won't make a big difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What if I don't like my tea sweet?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you don't like sweet tea, just skip the part of mixing the milk with the sweetener. Add your milk right to your glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What if I don't want the tea layers separate?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Don't worry about filling the glass fully with ice, just stir it up at the end so that the layers combine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are a few solutions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Can this butterfly pea latte be made into a warm drink?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes! You can definitely make this without the ice. The only difference, would be that you would steam the milk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Just be careful if you use the microwave because milk can burn very quickly in the microwave!<\/p>\n\n\n\n More Dunkin & Starbucks Non Coffee Recipes<\/a> you can make at Home!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you try my Mermaid Latte Recipe<\/strong>, please let me know your thoughts by leaving a rating and comment below!
