Inside Of Lips And Tongue Looked Blue After Drinking Chai Latte. Latte Smelled Like Chemicals, Sweet, Chalky Texture

I drank a few drinks of a chai latte my aunt made for me, and I stopped because it tasted funny. I later noticed the insides of my lips and my tongue looked blue, like I had eaten a blue sucker. It was an artificial blue color. Not from lack of oxygen. My aunt had engaged in other abusive behavior towards me. The latte smelled like chemicals, but was also kind of sweet, and it had a thick chalky texture. Do you have any input or advice?
