When there is a Blue Moon in the night sky, Adagio Teas offers, for 24 hours, a product called “Bella Luna Blue”. Your humble blogger failed to notice the moon and order a sample. However, +Camille des Jardins did, and helpfully provided this guest review:
You need a white or clear teacup to fully appreciate this drink. Bella Luna Blue. Made with Butterfly Pea Flower, Lemongrass, and flavored with natural blueberries, the tisane has a strong blueberry scent when the bag is opened. When made, the water instantly colors a beautiful sapphire color which deepens as the steeping progresses. Blueberry with lemon wafts through the air.
I found that it did not have as strong a flavor as I like when drunk hot, and the taste improved considerably as it cooled. This would be a delightful iced tea. Adding a little lemon juice enhances the flavor nicely, and turns it a glorious fuchsia color! A teaspoon of honey deepens the color to either a dark indigo or deep purple, depending on whether lemon preceded it. Hot, I definitely prefer it with both lemon and honey, and I am sure it would taste nice cooled with these additions as well.
