I'd love to see more fruit/herb based drinks please 🙌🏼 both hot and cold. I have plenty of rosehip teato use up, and it's a great alternative for an evening cofffeine-free drink. But I don't really like it on its own and need some inspiration 🙌🏼🌹
This tastes fantastic! And so easy to make
If a bit tart, just add more sweetener but we kept it as is. I’m convinced this drink helped me feel cooler overall during 114 degree days.
The latest health news say that hibiscus has the ability to lower blood pressure so I’m definitely going to try this. I used to have a sweet tooth now I can drink this without sugar. Thanks Sadia
Very nice drink! Beautiful, sweet and refreshing. Will def make again!
Phenomenal!
That sounds refreshing have to try it. Any tips to make it to a hot winterdrink?
This is gonna be my first recipe to try from the app. The drink looks really appealing.
Growing up, I've always seen it made this with brown sugar or piloncillo. It's the recipe I've adopted as well. Personally I like leaving the flowers simmering in the water for 15 minutes then I follow pretty much every step of the recipe except I take out the flowers before adding anything else. Ive noticed that depending on where you source your hibiscus flowers from you don't even need lime because it's already acidic enough. For that reason hibiscus water is my favorite drink ever 😋 tamarind is a pretty close second 👀
Refreshing!
Delicious! And refreshing!
So yum!! I will be making this all summer!!
Last month I had a friend bring me hibiscus flowers when he came to visit. We made tacos with the flowers and drank the tea. I never knew about this! I made (unsweetened) ice cubes as well…they melt fast, but are a nice subtle flavor to a glass of water.
I love hibiscus tea! It is healthy for you too. Good for circulation & Blood Pressure!
Love this! I mix it with a little pineapple juice instead of sugar.
Very refreshing and easy to make.
Next time I’m going to use this as a base for a alcohol free sangria and add lots of fruit.
