Description
A tantalizingly tart and sweet Classic Witches Brew Lemonade, perfect for spooky gatherings or a refreshing treat on a hot day. Its vibrant purple hue comes from a secret ingredient!
Ingredients
3 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 8–10 lemons) 1 ½ cups granulated sugar 4 cups cold water ½ cup butterfly pea flower tea (brewed strong and chilled) Lemon slices and mint sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
1. In a large pitcher, combine the lemon juice and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. 2. Add the cold water to the pitcher and stir well to combine. 3. Slowly pour in the chilled butterfly pea flower tea. Watch as the magic happens and the lemonade transforms into a beautiful purple hue! 4. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired (add more sugar or water). 5. Chill thoroughly before serving. 6. Pour over ice, garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint, and enjoy your Classic Witches Brew Lemonade!
Notes
For an extra enchanting touch, freeze some edible flower petals or blueberries into ice cubes to serve with your Witches Brew Lemonade. The butterfly pea flower tea is pH sensitive, which is what creates the color change. More acidic lemon juice will result in a more vibrant purple. This recipe can easily be doubled for a larger crowd.
