I dried those flowers

Tweet

As some of you know I am crazy after those indigo butterfly pea flowers which are now blooming profusely in the garden. I make the blue tea every day. I also learnt how to preserve them by drying in the sun. I used to normally use fresh flowers but I was surprised when I used two dry flowers the effect was the same The flowers shrink to almost one tenth of their normal size and yet the colour that they produce is amazing The dry flowers do not show any colour but when they are dipped in hot water the results are unbelievable. Any surprising things you have experienced lately
