Prerequisite:eldritch blast cantrip - Once on each of your turns when you hit a creature with your eldritch blast, you can reduce that creature’s speed by 10 feet until the end of your next turn.
So does this mean that if I hit a creature with three Blasts on my turn, I can reduce his speed by 30 feet? Thank you
OP's question is asked and answered. Similar but slightly more ambiguous question: three bolts, three seperate targets.... can you slow each of them "once"? Or does "once" limit you to one slowing bolt against one of the three targets?

I read it as 'once per turn' not 'once per target', because I think that 'once per target' would have been less ambiguously written as:
"When you hit a creature with your Eldritch Blast, you can reduce that creature's speed once by 10 feet until the end of your next turn."

No. It says "Once on each of your turns", so the effect can only happen one time.
But note repelling blast does not have the once per turn, so you can keep repelling them upto 10 ft away per blast. 30 ft makes a big difference.
