# Color-Changing Blue Spirits Distinto Gin Italiano Gets Its Color from the Butterfly Pea Flower By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2020-12-31 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/distinto-gin-italiano References: [packagingoftheworld](https://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2020/12/distinto-gin-italiano.html) & [bottegadeglispiriti.it](https://bottegadeglispiriti.it/prodotto/gin/distinto-gin-italiano/) Distinto Gin Italian has a distinctive blue color that comes from the petals of the blue butterfly pea flower, which also gives the spirit its color-changing properties. The blue-purple artisanal gin is made in Milan, Italy using high-quality spring water, certified organic and kosher Italian soft wheat alcohol and botanicals that are freshly harvested by hand. As well as offering a unique experience with color when poured directly into a glass, the gin spirit offers more surprises, as it changes its tone when it comes into contact with tonic water. The dynamic gin spirit is packaged in a way that shows off the unconventional color that the edible flower petals infuse after being distilled.
