Banana Mango Blue Butterfly Pea Flower Powder Smoothie

Banana Mango Blue Butterfly Smoothie

We eat with our eyes first so this banana mango blue butterfly smoothie is extra fun to eat. The pretty bluish purple color comes from a powder called blue butterfly pea flower powder. You can think of it as an all natural food coloring that does not contain any of the nasty ingredients that typical food coloring has. Depending on how much powder you use and what ingredients you mix it with, the color changes from different blues to purple.
