🌸 Blue Lotus Tea Latte (Serves 1)
Ingredients:
-
1 tablespoon dried Blue Lotus flowers (or a small handful)
-
1 cup hot water (just under boiling, around 190–200°F)
-
½ cup plant milk (almond, oat, or coconut work beautifully)
-
½ teaspoon honey, maple syrup, or monkfruit (optional, to taste)
-
Pinch of cardamom or cinnamon (optional, for grounding and warmth)
-
Optional: a splash of vanilla extract or a tiny drop of rosewater for depth
Instructions:
-
Infuse the Blue Lotus
Add the dried flowers to a teapot or infuser. Pour hot water over them and steep for 10–15 minutes, covered. The longer you steep, the more subtle euphoria you'll draw out. Strain (you can add on our flower tea strainer with this gift set) -
Warm the Milk
While the tea is steeping, gently heat your plant milk on the stove or froth it using a milk frother until warm and steamy (but not boiling). If you like, add cardamom or cinnamon during this step. -
Combine & Sweeten
In a mug, pour the steeped Blue Lotus tea. Add the warm milk and stir gently. Sweeten to taste with honey, maple syrup, or monkfruit. A little vanilla or rosewater can add a lush, sensual note. -
Sip Slowly
Drink in a quiet place. Let the subtle effects unfold. Blue Lotus is known for inducing calm, dreaminess, and soft euphoria.
