Instructions

  • Add to a 2-quart pitcher the juice from 6-8 med-sized lemons to get 1.5 cups of fresh lemon juice.
  • Take 1 cup of white granulated sugar dissolved in 1 cup of water.
  • Heat it in a saucepan on the stove to create a simple syrup.
  • Cool and add to the fresh lemon juice.
    • How much water you add to the lemon juice depends on how sweet you like your lemonade.
  • Add your favorite spirit
  • Stir Add 10 – 15 pieces of Butterfly Pea Flowers to your pitcher of lemonade and cool in the fridge for 6-8 hours.
  • Remove flowers and stir.

This cold brew method will allow the flowers to slowly transform the color to a beautiful purple.

Alternative Options:

Another option of creating the purple color is making blue Butterfly Pea Flower ice cubes by making a tea with the flowers. Simply cool and add the blue water to your tray and freeze. You will see the blue change to purple because of the citrus in the lemons.

Lastly, you can add Butterfly Pea Flowers to your simple syrup. Add 1 cup of water and 1 cup of white sugar. Simmer on a stovetop until the sugar dissolves. After you have made the simple syrup and while it is still hot, add 10 – 12 flowers and brew for 5 – 8 minutes. Finally, remove the flowers and cool.

 

Cold Brew Iced Tea Instructions

  • Start with a glass cold brew tea pitcher, tea filter natural paper bags, or a pitcher/container you have at home. Each of our iced tea boxes or bags has directions listed for the ratio of water to tea.
  • Place your blend into the pitcher or filters.
  • Soak or pour cold, filtered water over your tea.
  • Let it steep for 6-8 hours or 4 days at the maximum.

Pouch Brewing Instructions

Cold Brew Instructions (Recommended) 

  • 1) Add one pre-made Storehouse Tea Iced Tea Pouch to a 2-quart pitcher.
    • If you are using our Natural Fiber Disposable Tea Filter or our Mist Iced Tea Jug:  
      1. 7 teaspoons (check the side of the tea box for specific spoon size) to a Mist Iced tea jug.
      2. 7 teaspoons (check the side of the tea box for specific spoon size) to a Large Natural Fiber Disposable Tea Filter.
  • 2) Gently fill the pitcher / Ice Tea Jug with cold water (filtered if possible) and cover the pitcher.
  • 3) Place the pitcher in your refrigerator and wait until it reaches the desired strength. Usually this takes 6 -8 hours but it can be left in the refrigerator and enjoyed right from the refrigerator or over iced cubes in your glass. When cold brewing you can leave the iced tea pouch in or take it out. Cold brewing prevents you from over steeping.
