Hibiscus tea

Origin
Hibiscus tea is made from the dried petals of the Hibiscus sabdariffa flower, traditionally grown in tropical and subtropical regions such as Africa, Central and South America, and parts of Asia. This vibrant, ruby-red infusion has been enjoyed for centuries in cultures around the world, from Egyptian “Karkade” to Caribbean sorrel drinks, prized for both its refreshing taste and natural properties.

Flavour Notes
Hibiscus tea offers a bold and refreshing profile with:

• Bright, tangy acidity
• Tart, cranberry-like flavour
• Subtle floral undertones
• Light natural sweetness with a crisp, clean finish

Its lively taste makes it both invigorating and highly refreshing.

Serving Suggestions

• Brew with freshly boiled water for 5–7 minutes to develop full colour and flavour
• Enjoy hot for a soothing, aromatic cup
• Serve over ice for a refreshing cold beverage, especially in warm weather
• Naturally caffeine-free, making it ideal for any time of day
• Add honey, agave, or sugar to balance its natural tartness
• Enhance with fresh mint, citrus slices, or a splash of fruit juice for creative variations
