“每天一杯超级蓝水”
Cold Brew Butterfly Pea Tea – “Cold Brew” to retain maximum nutrients in this powerful flower tea.
Yes, it is not necessary to make flower tea with hot water. Instead, cold brewing makes your tea healthier. For daily drinking, unless you need potent butterfly pea juice (for adding into other beverages and cooking purpose), boiling is needed to extract its maximum concentrate, an infused butterfly pea water is good enough.
Edible butterfly pea flower is well known healthy. From my understanding, it helps in promoting healthier eyes, skin and hair. Rich in antioxidant to delay aging, fight against body free radical (and hence, reducing risk of getting cancer and illnesses), and regulate blood sugar in body. There should be much more than these, in fact.
I love it’s versatility in cooking, be it in baking, cooking, and, making drinks. To save hassle, I drink it like a tea, or even simpler, water.
“冷冲泡”的花茶可以更好的保留它的营养成分。是的，每天饮用的蓝谍豆茶没有必要用热滚水泡。 相反的，冷泡让花茶更健康。除非需用到浓花汁，就得把蓝花煮沸以提取浓汁（浓汁可以加入其他饮料炮制或烹调料理），每天喝的，浸泡蝶豆水就足够了，能省事，更方便日常饮用保养。
蝶豆花以健康着称。 据我了解，它有助于促进视力、皮肤和头发的健康。 富含抗氧化剂（多来之其青花素），可延缓衰老，对抗体内自由基（从而降低患癌症和疾病的风险），并调节体内血糖。 事实上，健康好处应该不止这些的。
无论是烘焙、烹饪还是制作饮料，我喜欢它在烹饪方面的多功能用途。 为了省事，我把它当作茶喝，甚至更简单的，水。
