my tea turned blue !!!
Since no one has responded with an intelligent answer, I'll hazard a
guess...
Perhaps your water is basic (high pH) rather than acidic (low pH). I'm
wondering whether this is the same reaction you see in cooked red/
purple cabbage, which can turn blue if the pH is too high (vinegar is
often added to keep the red color).
Just a SWAG,
