                    \n
                  • For a deeper purple color, use purple sweet potato or ube extract.<\/li>\n
                  • Butterfly pea flower extract creates a beautiful purple-blue hue that changes color when lemon juice is added.<\/li>\n
                  • Adjust sweetness according to your taste.<\/li>\n
                  • Serve immediately after chilling for the freshest flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    Storage<\/h3>\n

                    Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Stir well before serving, as the tapioca pearls may settle at the bottom.<\/p>\n
