A vivid, all-natural blue powder from spirulina. Stir it into smoothies, lattes and bowls for a striking colour and an antioxidant-rich boost.
Why
Blue spirulina is phycocyanin, the naturally occurring blue pigment found in spirulina, separated out into a fine powder. You get spirulina's famous colour without the strong "green" taste of whole spirulina, so it blends easily into drinks and recipes. Phycocyanin is a natural source of antioxidants. Just ½ metric teaspoon (1 g) a day turns water, juice, smoothies or a latte a brilliant ocean blue.
