The lovely flower known as the blue lotus, or Nymphaea caerulea, was first grown in ancient Egypt along the banks of the Nile. It is also referred to as the blue water lily. Since it frequently appeared in artwork and served as a symbol for particular deities, the plant had enormous spiritual and cultural significance for the ancient Egyptians. Given that it was also discovered in King Tutankhamun's temple, it was likewise considered to be of royal status. As a recreational drug, it was also widely used and admired for both its aphrodisiac and moderate psychoactive properties. In fact, some consider the blue lotus to be the original "party drug" due to its widespread use in ancient Egypt.

But this interesting flower is much more than that. We'll go over all the different ways we use blue lotus so you can see how much in common we are with the ancient Egyptians. Even better, we'll demonstrate how to grow and cook it yourself.
