Magic galaxy squash is frozen butterfly pea flower tea and rosella tea mixed with lime lemon soda. Perfect for hot summer!

Magic galaxy squash is inspired by a restaurant in my city. The colors of galaxy are dark blue, purple, and pink. I use butterfly pea flowers for the dark blue color, rosella tea for pink (although it’s actually red), and for the purple colour I mixed butterfly pea flowers with lemon juice.

What make this drink magic because of the characteristic of the butterfly pea flowers. The original color is blue. But when we add something acidic to it, the color turn purple.

For the red color I use rosella tea. Beside give the drink a red color, it’s also give a unique taste from rosella flower tea. It’s a little bit sour.

For the soda I choose Sprite because it has clear color so it won’t ruin the galaxy color. Also the taste is a combination of lemon and lime so we actually got the overall taste from Sprite and squeezed lemon.

Magic galaxy squash is just perfect for this summer season. Enjoy your summer!

How to make magic galaxy squash:

Heat 500ml water until boiling. Pour hot water over butterfly pea tea flower until it the water turns blue. Set aside until cool and freeze over night on ice cube tray.

Boil 250ml water with rosella tea flower for 5 minutes. Set aside until cool.

Crush frozen Sprite and frozen butterfly pea tea with blender. Set aside. Squeeze lemon. Set aside.

First put rosella tea into a glass about 1/5 of the glass height, then crushed frozen sprite (1/3 of the glass height), crushed frozen butterfly pea tea (1/3 of the glass height), 1 tbsp lemon juice, 100ml cold sprite, and crushed frozen butterfly pea tea (until the glass is full) sequentially. Repeat for 3 more glasses. Enjoy!
