Must-Have Ingredients for Your Halloween Tea Mocktails

To create the most beautiful Halloween mocktail ever, one needs to use the following ingredients. All can be sourced from the AayuLuxe product range, so getting started couldn't be simpler!

  • Hibiscus Tea: Provides a beautiful vibrant red coloring and a slightly tart and fruity taste to add some depth.

  • Butterfly Pea Flower Tea: Provides that magical blue hue you'd see when mixing flowers for transitioning (it changes color when mixed with acid).

  • Honey or Agave Syrup: A better natural sweetener option that pairs well with the flavors.

  • Fresh Lemon Juice: Adds a zing to the sweetness and activates the color change in the blue tea.

  • Fresh Fruits: Use grapes and blueberries to have fun, spooky garnishes.

  • Sparkling Water (Optional): Adds a refreshing fizz to the mocktail (not explicitly in the recipe steps but a great addition).

Simple Steps to Make Your Halloween Tea Mocktail

1. Prep Hibiscus Lemonade

  1. Boil 7 cups of water to 80°C (176°F).

  2. Pour the water over 10g of hibiscus tea (available for purchase) or 2–3 tea bags and steep for 10 minutes.

  3. Add ¾ cup honey and ¾ cup lemon juice. Note: Adjust honey to taste for preferred sweetness.

2. Make Butterfly Pea Flower Tea

  1. In a small jug, mix 1 tbsp of butterfly pea flowers (available for purchase) and 1 cup of hot water.

  2. Steep for a few minutes to achieve a deep blue color.

3. Prepare Grape Eyeballs

  1. Halve 4 grapes and use a small spoon or knife to scoop out a small amount of flesh from the center of each half.

  2. Put a small blueberry inside the scooped-out center of each grape half.

  3. Secure the "eyeball" with a toothpick (for display purposes).

 Mix and Serve

  1. Fill tall glasses with ice.

  2. Add the prepared Hibiscus Lemonade to fill the glass approximately ¾ full.

  3. Slowly top off the drink with the Butterfly Pea Flower Tea. Watch the magic happen as the blue tea hits the acidic lemonade, turning the drink a beautiful shade of blue to purple.

  4. Garnish the rim or drop in your fresh grape eyeballs and serve immediately!

How Can I Make the Presentation Spooky?
