Where to Buy Blue Lotus

As Blue Lotus is an aquatic plant, it can be a bit cumbersome to grow at home (see the Lotus farm in the image). If you have a pond and want to give it a go, you can learn how to cultivate Blue Lotus here. However, if you're like us and would rather simply buy Lotus ready to use, we've scoured the web for the best quality at the best price, and share our findings below.

We've found that the best "bang for your buck" with Blue Lotus is 50:1 Blue Lotus extract, which is not only more economical, but also more convenient than the dried flowers which you have to soak in wine for days before consuming. We've also found that the flowers give the wine a bitter flavor, making it not so pleasant to drink.

The Lotus extract that we use ourselves and recommend is also nice because you can put it in capsules (easy instructions here) or quickly dissolve it into tea or another beverage. Because the extract actually tastes a bit like instant tea, the flavor is barely noticeable (or even pleasant) in coffee, tea, and even alcoholic drinks (recipes here). Because the extract is 50 times more potent than the plant itself, it only takes 2-3 500mg Blue Lotus 50:1 capsules worth for us to get the desired effects.

We searched far and wide to find the most affordable prices on quality Blue Lotus extract. After extensive digging, we managed to find a supplier selling 50:1 extract for as much as 80% less than the majority of the shops on the web.

Here are the prices of shops you can find easily in the top listed Google pages:
Supplier 1 - Blue Lotus 20x extract (10 grams): $80.00Supplier 2 - Blue Lotus 20x extract, (10 grams): $99.00Supplier 3 - Blue Lotus 20x extract, (10 grams): $79.99
Here is the lowest price anywhere that we could find:
MoodandMind.com - Blue Lotus 50:1 extract (10 grams): $16.50.

We regularly use this Lotus extract (pretty much every weekend), so we can vouch for the quality. It's not clumpy, easy to encapsulate, dissolves easily in hot beverages, and has a nice pleasant taste.

Needless to say, please comment if you know of a supplier with better prices!
