Morphology
The phrase's meaning is directly compositional: 'kaleidoscopic' describes many shifting/colorful elements and 'blend' denotes a mixture, so together they convey a mixture of many colorful or varied parts. This adjective+noun combination follows a standard, transparent pattern that a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily understand.
Etymology
The phrase kaleidoscopic blend comes from the image of a kaleidoscope, a tube with small colored pieces that make changing bright patterns when you turn it. Because of that, blend here means a 'mix' of many different, often colorful parts, so the phrase means a lively, varied mixture.
