Have you ever seen such a beautiful lemonade? And not only that, but it’s delicious. But what is pea flower? This infusion is rich in antioxidants, which makes it an excellent drink to include in your detox diet, especially in summer. Drinking a cup of blue tea once or twice a week on an empty stomach flushes accumulated toxins from the system and greatly improves digestive health. The earthy flavour of butterfly pea flower tea is said to improve mood as it has anti-stress effects that can also help reduce symptoms of anxiety. All this combined with lemonade makes for the perfect summer drink.
