Healthy Happy Hour with Blue Butterfly Tea and Blueberry Oatmeal Bars

This month RPP has designed experiences that highlight wisdom and lifestyle tips from the Blue Zones, regions of the world that have been researched due to the longevity and health of their people. On Wednesday, the RPP Pub turned into a Blue Zone for our signature Healthy Happy Hour.  Residents and Associates stopped by to sample our magnificent color changing mocktails made with Butterfly Pea Flowers, Mint and lemon. Replacing sugary beverages with tea, or in this case, a mocktail that includes tea, is a great way to incorporate some Blue Zones & healthy eating pattern recommended hydration tips. Chef’s blueberry oatmeal bars from scratch were also a hit! Randy, our fun and charming bartender, served drinks while we chatted about the origins of the Blue Zones research, as well as viewed and discussed an animated slideshow highlighting the longevity foods and lifestyle tips from each region. Residents are invited to explore experiences of the Blue Zones lifestyle, and adopt one new healthy habit from the this month as part of the RPP “Get in Your Zone Challenge.”
