Perfect Brewing Methods for Hibiscus Tea
Hot Preparation: Use 1-2 teaspoons per cup (240ml) of water heated to 100°C/212°F. Steep for 5-7 minutes. Adjust quantity to taste - longer steeping creates a stronger, more tart flavor.
Cold Brew Method: Add 2 teaspoons per cup of cold water. Refrigerate for 4-12 hours for a smooth, less acidic taste.
Iced Tea: Double the amount of hibiscus, steep in hot water, then pour over ice. Add honey or agave if desired.
Culinary Uses: Can be used to make natural food coloring, syrups, or added to smoothies and cocktails. Excellent for creating vibrant, naturally-colored beverages.

Whole Hibiscus sabdariffa flowers (calyces), carefully selected for optimal flavor and therapeutic properties. These premium flowers are rich in organic acids, including citric acid, malic acid, and protocatechuic acid, which contribute to their characteristic tart taste. The deep red color comes from anthocyanins, powerful antioxidant compounds that give hibiscus its health-promoting properties.
The flowers contain significant levels of vitamin C, minerals, and bioactive compounds including polyphenols and flavonoids. Each flower calyx is harvested at peak maturity to ensure maximum nutrient content and flavor development.

Across North Africa and the Middle East, hibiscus tea (known as karkade or roselle) has been served as a traditional welcome drink for generations. In Sudan, it's customarily offered to guests and consumed throughout the day for its refreshing properties.
