The Ancient Egyptians would soak blue lotus in wine by simply soaking the flowers/buds in some normal wine (or even liquor) for a few hours. Sweet wine is recommended for taste! You can see evidence of this in countless murals, papyrus and temples throughout Egypt.

Yet, the place of the flower in Egyptian society extended beyond its use as a tea or oil.

The typical woman in the street would wear beautiful blue lotus flowers in her hair or headdress as a fashion statement.

In fact, the significance of the flower is such that it is even cited in the Egyptian Book of The Dead – one of the most important historical artefacts that remains from the proud civilization.

Ancient blue lotus flowers were also found scattered over Tutankhamun’s body, when he was un-casked in 1922.

And to top off the list, blue Lotus was exported by the ancient Greeks when they stumbled across it (wouldn’t you?) - it’s actually thought to be mentioned in Homer’s Odyssey itself!
