Hibiscus is known by many names including roselle, red tea, and Jamaica Sorrel. Cultivated widely across the tropics, its large, striking flowers are cherished in cuisines for jams, jellies, sauces, and refreshing drinks.
Brewed as tea, Hibiscus yields a vivid ruby-red cup with a tart, fruity character and full body. The taste is crisp and refreshing, with tangy notes reminiscent of cranberry. Often blended with Rose hips, Hibiscus is a natural companion that deepens the lovely red hue and tart taste. It also pairs beautifully with Peppermint, adding coolness to its tangy edge. Enjoyed hot for its depth or poured over ice for refreshment in summer.
