I did have at least one neat party trick up my sleeve to make drink purple! Butterfly pea flower-infused gin is a pH indicator and when something acidic is added to it, we can cause a neat lil color change.

Simply using your favorite purple/blue gin as the base for your next gin & tonic will prove to be just the purple drink necessary to impress those who are easily impressable (and it might help you save face in the wake of your lack of knowledge in additive color theory).
