Sip these 4 purple drinks

These cocktails, sodas, and energy drinks will leave you in a purple haze.

Since we’re in the midst of Drink Up Month and our LOUtoday brand color is purple, we found four violet-hued drinks to sip for the occasion.

Lavender Racing Boost, Heine Brothers Coffee
Part of its line of fizzy energy drinks — aka Boosts — this lavender-flavored drink was made in collaboration with the Racing Louisville women’s soccer team.

Taro Milk T, Honeydew
This bubble tea gets its lilac hue from the taro in it, which is a starchy root vegetable with a sweet, nutty flavor.

Purple Rain, Safai Coffee Shop
I only want to sip you… This lavender and vanilla Italian soda is caffeine-free and honors the king of purple, Prince.

The Fly Me to the Moon cocktail is served with a side of lemon juice to change the color of the drink.

Fly Me to the Moon, Copper & Kings Rooftop Bar & Restaurant
This color-changing gin cocktail starts off blue and transitions into purple with the squeeze of a lemon, thanks to the chemical reaction between the butterfly pea syrup and acid.
