For many singles and couples, the Singapore Cocktail Festival will be held from 23 to 25 September at Marina Bay. But, what if you have a child, are underaged or simply just prefer not to drink? Our team at Wheniwasfour found a 5-step drink recipe that is non-alcoholic, decaffeinated and can be easily changed to suit vegetarians! Let’s try it out!


Firstly, you will need:

drink ingredients consisting of hot water, butterfly pea flowers, a cup, some ice, full cream milk, a straw, a spoon, a tea strainer and condensed milk

  • 5 Butterfly Pea flowers or 2 teaspoons of Butterfly Pea powder
  • 40ml of hot water
  • 50ml of full cream milk (can be substituted with non-dairy milk)
  • 2 tablespoons of condensed milk (or sugar syrup for vegetarians) and, 
  • Ice cubes

Step 1. Steep the butterfly pea flowers or dissolve the powder in the hot water to produce a tea with a blue hue.
