Benefits

• Deep ruby-red cup with a natural cranberry-like tartness and no caffeine at all
• Rich in vitamin C and anthocyanin antioxidants
• One of the most studied herbal infusions for cardiovascular wellness, with a long tradition of use in supporting healthy blood pressure - though it is a tea, not a medicine
• Known as gudhal in India, a familiar remedy for hair and skin health
• Sold as whole dried petals rather than dust, so the infusion is clean and the colour deep
  
  

Usage

• Steep 1 pyramid bag in 150 ml water at 85–90°C for 3–5 minutes, then remove the bag
• Sweeten with honey or jaggery to balance the tartness
• For iced hibiscus: brew double strength, chill, serve over ice with mint and lemon
• Naturally pairs with ginger, cinnamon or rose
• Two cups a day is a reasonable amount
